Beer for Dinner

• 3 teaspoons grated fresh ginger root
• 1/3 cup orange marmalade
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
• 1 tablespoon mustard powder
• 1 cup beer
• 1 (8 pound) prime rib roast
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• Freshly ground black pepper

Directions: Mix together the ginger, marmalade, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, hot sauce, and mustard. Stir in the beer. Prick holes all over the roast with a 2 pronged fork. Pour marinade over roast. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, basting at least twice. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place roast on a rack in a roasting pan. Pour about 1 cup of marinade into the roasting pan, and discard remaining marinade. Pour olive oil over roast, and season with freshly ground black pepper. Insert a roasting thermometer into the middle of the roast, making sure that the thermometer does not touch any bone. Cover roasting pan with aluminum foil, and seal edges tightly around pan. Cook roast for 1 hour in the preheated oven. After the first hour, remove the aluminum foil. Baste, reduce heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), and continue roasting for 1 more hour. The thermometer reading should be at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium-rare, and 170 degrees F (76 degrees C) for well done. Remove roasting pan from oven, place aluminum foil over roast, and let rest for about 30 minutes before slicing.

• 1 plump chicken without giblets
• 1 can of beer
• 2 heaped tablespoons ground cinnamon
• 1 heaped teaspoon mustard powder
• 1 teaspoon chilli powder (I like powdered chipotles for this, but you can use cayenne pepper)
• 1 teaspoon allspice
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 3 heaped tablespoons soft dark brown sugar

Snip through any strings holding the chicken's legs neatly together, and spread them out. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a bowl and rub them all over the chicken, then add a tablespoon of the rub to the cavity of the chicken and smear it around a bit with the back of a spoon. Leave for the flavours to penetrate for two hours at room temperature. Meanwhile, open the beer can, pour half of the beer out and drink it. (This is a fun recipe.) Use a metal skewer or a nail and hammer to make a few more holes in the top of the half-full beer can.

Put a tablespoon of the remaining rub in the can with the beer. It will froth and bubble, so add your rub carefully. After the two hours are up, rub and remaining spice mix onto the chicken and push the bird carefully, bottom (that's the end with the legs) first, onto the upright beer can, as in the picture. Roast the whole apparatus at 180° C (350° F) for 1 hour and 30 minutes, remove the bird carefully from the can without spilling any beer, and rest for ten minutes before serving. (If you are a lucky person with a large and easily controlled barbecue, try cooking the chicken in there over some flavorful wood - it'll be delicious.)

Don't be tempted to use the hot beer as a sauce. It'll taste bitter and revolting, so just pour it down the sink. Let the chicken's natural juices (there will be plenty, and they'll come out of the bird as it rests) act as a gravy. This is a great dish with a salad and a pilaf or cous cous. Serve with a couple of nicely chilled cans of whatever beer you used in the cooking.

• 6 dozen mussels, cleaned washed and debearded
• 2 pieces thick center cut bacon, chopped
• 3 fresh leeks, washed and sliced
• 2 shallots, chopped
• 1-2 T. butter
• 1 1/2 T. dijon mustard
• 3/4 pint Belgian beer (I use a high-quality Trappist ale, not something too bitter)
• 1/4 c. cream

Put a very large heavy-bottomed pot with a tight lid on the stovetop, and bring up the heat to medium. Fry the bacon until a light golden brown, but not crispy or dark, you just want to make sure to cook it through. Remove the bacon and drain on paper towels. Discard the extra grease.

Saute the leeks and shallots with the butter, use only enough to keep it from burning in the pan. When the shallots are transluscent, add the dijon mustard and stir to incoporate. Add the bacon back to the pan and stir again.

Pour in the beer and reduce heat to medium-low. Bring the broth up to a good simmer but not near boiling.

Gently add the mussels with a wire skimmer into the broth. Put the lid on tightly and let the mussels steam until their shells open up, about 2-3 minutes. Do not cook them longer, once the shells are fully open they are ready. Turn off the heat of your burner. Use the skimmer and fetch the mussels from the broth, dividing evenly into four bowls.

Add the cream to the broth and stir quickly to incorporate, the broth should still be very hot. Ladle the broth over the mussels.

Serve with frites, hearty and crusty bread and a delicious Belgian beer to keep with the theme. Enjoy!

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• Pinch cayenne pepper
• 3/4 cup pale ale or nut brown ale
• 8 ounces (approximately 2 cups) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 4 1-inch slices good-quality bread, toasted

In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. Cook, whisking constantly for 2 to 3 minutes, being careful not to brown the flour. Whisk in mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper and cayenne until smooth. Add ale and whisk to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes to soften the flavor of the alcohol. Over very low heat, gradually add cheese, stirring constantly, until cheese melts and sauce is smooth; this will take 4 to 5 minutes. Makes 4 servings.

• 1/2 cup A-1 steak sauce
• 1/2 cup bourbon or good dark beer
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon regular or grainy Dijon mustard
• 2 pinches of red pepper flakes
• Salt to taste
• 2 racks baby back ribs (about 2 1/2 pounds)

First make the barbecue sauce. Heat all the ingredients together in a saucepan over medium heat until steaming. Cool. The sauce will keep in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Preheat oven to 325°F.

Cut the racks of ribs in half crosswise. Rub the ribs with the sauce of your choice, paying most attention to the meaty side.

Lay the rib pieces, meat side down, in an 11" x 13" baking dish. The pieces will overlap slightly.

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake until the meat pulls away from the ends of the bones and the ribs are tender, about 1 1/2 hours.

You can bake the ribs up to three hours before you grill them and leave them at room temperature. Or you can bake them the day before and keep them refrigerated. Bring the refrigerated ribs to room temperature about one hour before you grill them.

Remove the ribs from the baking dish but reserve the cooking liquids. Grill the ribs, brushing them with a reasonable amount of the remaining sauce, until they're browned and heated through, about 10 minutes.

Move the ribs around as they grill; the sugar in the sauce makes it easy for them to burn, so watch out for that. Let the ribs rest for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting them into one or two bone pieces.

• 5 cloves garlic
• 2 tsp. anatto
• 3 lbs. lamb chops
• 1 lb. lamb ribs
• 3 tsp. coarse mustard
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
• 1 bottle Mexican pilsner
• 1 bunch cilantro
• 1 handful fresh parsley
• 1 tomato
• 1 onion
• 1 1/2 tsp. cumin
• 1 can chicken or beef stock or broth
• 1/2 cup oil
• 1 1/2 pound yucca root

First, you will need to marinate your lamb meat. Slice lamb into about 4 ounce size pieces, place the bones aside, but do not dispose of them. Lay lamb chunks flat in a flat bottom bowl or pie dish. Mix together 2 cloves diced garlic, 1 tsp. annatto, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. pepper, 1/2 cup of the beer and 2 tsp. of the mustard. Pour evenly over your lamb. Spread the last tsp. of mustard over the top of the lamb meat. Let stand for 2-4 hours.
Place in blender 1/2 tomato, the onion coarsely chopped, the cilantro, parsley, 1 tsp. of the cumin and 1/4 cup of broth/stock. Mix until well blended.
Peel yucca root and slice into 1 inch cubes. Place cubes in a pot full of water and bring to a boil. Boil until yucca is easily penetrated with a fork, then set aside.
Once the meat is marinated, place oil in pan and heat. When oil is warm, add the lamb meat without the marinade. Sear the outside evenly and place aside. Now add the vegetable blend to the pan and fry for about 1 minute. Add the meat back in, stir and cook for another 5 minutes over medium high heat. Add the marinade left over, the bones you set aside before and the rest of the broth/stock. When stew comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium, add the rest of the chopped tomato and leave to simmer for about 1 hour or until meat is very tender. Stir occasionally. At this time, add the rest of the cumin, annato, pepper and beer. Bring heat back up to med-high and bring to a boil. Leave boiling for 2 minutes, then reduce heat to low. Add yucca root and stir. Let sit for 5 more minutes, then remove from heat.
Serve with spiced rice.

(Serves 4-6) 1 large bottle of hamburger dill chips or hamburger ovals, such as Vlasic 1 cup unbleached flour 1 cup yellow cornmeal 1 tablespoon favorite barbecue rub 3 tablespoons yellow prepared mustard 1 cup beer

Preheat 4 to 6 inches of oil in a deep casserole dish, or Dutch oven; bring the heat to 325 degrees.

In a wide, flat bowl, combine the flour and cornmeal, and season with a favorite barbecue rub. In another wide, flat bowl, make a slurry of the mustard and beer.

Dip the pickle slices, several at a time, in the mustard-beer mixture and then in the flour and cornmeal mixture. When coated, place the pickles on a dish until all of them have been dipped and covered.

With a slotted spoon or a frying basket, slip the pickles into the casserole dish, or Dutch oven, 5 or 6 at a time. Cook until the outside batter is browned on both sides, about 30 to 45 seconds; turn with a slotted spoon. Pickles will float to top when done.

Remove the browned pickles to a plate covered with a paper towel, and drain briefly. Serve warm as an appetizer with a bowl of room temperature honey mustard, or mustard-based barbecue sauce in which to dip the pickles. Serve with a tall bottle of icy cold beer. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 pounds onions, sliced thin
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 12 ounces dark ale, preferably altbier
• 6 cups chicken or beef stock
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• Salt and black pepper
• 4 branches fresh thyme
• 2 cups packaged pretzel nuggets
• 11/2 cups grated Gruyère cheese, more for serving
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard.

Melt butter in a 4-quart saucepan. Add onions and sugar and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until onions are golden, about 40 minutes. Add 1 cup ale and stir, scraping pot to release caramelized particles. Add stock. Simmer 30 minutes. Add lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Add thyme and set aside one hour or longer to infuse.

Pulse pretzels in a food processor or place in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin to make coarse crumbs. Mix in a bowl with cheese. Lightly beat eggs, whisk in mustard and remaining ale and stir this mixture into pretzel crumbs and cheese. Form mixture into 18 dumplings about the size of Ping-Pong balls, place on a platter and cover until ready to cook.

About 20 minutes before serving, fill a 3-quart saucepan halfway with water and bring to a boil. Drop dumplings into water and simmer gently 15 minutes. While dumplings simmer, remove thyme from soup. Reheat soup.

Ladle soup into bowls. Use a slotted spoon to transfer 3 to 4 dumplings to each bowl. Serve, with additional grated cheese on the side.

Yield: 4 to 6 servings.
