For batter to fry catfish.
by Ironhead on November 29th, 2008
I use it in batter for coating fish and onion rings. Have used it in marinade and cook a drunken chicken now and then.
by CT on November 28th, 2008
No..but I've eaten food with wine in..does that count?
by dead leaves raked in a pile on November 28th, 2008
I've used it as lubrication or consolation during cooking.
When it comes to putting alcohol in food, I am more likely to use wine.
by wyldefyre on November 28th, 2008
Sure...the first time was when I threw a party and a lot of stale beer left over in the keg the next day...I tried 'rarebit' a cheese and beer sauce over bread. Then in soups, gravies, as a braising or marinade sauce, in bread, and I compost any left in bottles left by others...makes the compost happy!
by j ninja... on November 28th, 2008
"Yes" and sometimes I even put it in the food!!! {{ hick!}}
by uncacal on November 28th, 2008

by Galeanda on November 28th, 2008
All the time. In stews, in batter to fry, corned beef, sauces, all sorts of things. I'm from Belgium, I think it's in my genes to cook with beer.
by shrek on November 28th, 2008
All the time - I can't cook unless I have a few beers.

Boil brats and dogs in beer before grilling
Guiness in beef/brisquet stew
by juliemarie on November 29th, 2008
We always cook our thin steak for tacos with beer. We buy the eye round and have it sliced thin. To prepare the steak we layer the slices in a baking dish sprinkling each slice with lime juice and salt. Let that sit while the grill or fying pan is heating up (we prefer the grill, about 5 minutes before cooking pour a beer over the steak. We use Modelo or Corona. This is absolutely delicious!
by King Tom on November 28th, 2008
No. I don't think that would taste good.
by Salty Light on November 28th, 2008
beer is a great meat tenderizer. I only use it in beef stew.
by Katey0718 on November 28th, 2008
Yes i love drunk Chicken!
by JuJubee is wearing a COAT of chocolate on November 28th, 2008
Yes, when I have a large roast, I seere it in vegetable oil, then pour a beer in after it's all browned so taht it can tenderize in the beer. Than I keep adding water to it as it evaporates. Makes it fall apart!!!!!
by Curiosity didnt kill the cat. I did. on November 28th, 2008
yep it's good for barbequeing
by DueceGod - doGeceuD on November 28th, 2008
i use it all the time when im grilling.
by Home Movies Without Zombies on November 28th, 2008
No, what good would come out of that?
by Bizzy B in the place to Be on November 28th, 2008
Absolutely, the main ingredient when I make steamed crablegs.
by Carrot and Stick on November 28th, 2008
No, it doesn't sound very appealing to me.
by Andy Is Wicked Married to Penal Colony on November 28th, 2008
I make beer bread every once in a while. I agree with Miss Anubis that beer burgers are awesome. Beer battered onion rings are a favorite too.
by TERRYTUKER on November 28th, 2008
hell yes pot roast chili its also a great tool when grilling it can be used to tame a flare up and your thirst
by grittygurl on November 28th, 2008
Yes the most tender potroast I ever made had nothing more to it than a can of beer, a can of tomatoes, and a few hours of simmering on low in the crockpot. (I was in a hurry for something when I threw it together) Man it was delicious and I don't even like potroast..or beer really! I'd rather have chinese food and a margarita.
by angry_onion on November 28th, 2008
You mean, have you ever "wasted" beer? NO

by redcatt63 is around here somewhere...... on March 4th, 2009
Yes, I've made bread and pizza dough with beer, and I've also added it to my homemade chili. I had a friend who would boil ribs in beer before grilling.
by Don Gorgeous George on July 7th, 2009
Yes, very often when I am frying up a meal.
by legless on February 26th, 2009
All the time, it makes any stews taste great and it also keeps the chef(me)well oiled :-)
