best football day recipe

my favorite domestic beer so far for cooking is budweiser.
i put some brats in a saucepan, cover them with budweiser and let them sit for about 30 minutes on a medium-high heat (not boiling) and then slap them on the grill. the flavor is amazing. is there another beer that would complement the brats better than bud? i'm sure there is...

 

Try a german bock or even a light import like lowenbrau next time, the flavor of a beer other than BMC is pretty nice in cooking.

 

I tried budweiser with brats and hated it (then again, I hate budweiser).  I'd go more with a darker beer - seems to impart more flavor on the brats.



 

I love to cook brats in beer, but to be completely honest, I kind of hate to waste a very good beer on cooking anything.  I have in the past used some porters or Sierra Nevadas on brats, but I couldn't tell much of difference between these and a cheap domestic.  My favorite domestic to use for brats is Michelob.  This is also about the only mass produced domestic I can stand to drink on a regular basis.

I may have to cook up some brats this weekend....

 

That's why I like using a cheap import like Lowenbrau, plus I think sausage is happy being drowned in a beer from it's native land.

 

You've all got a good recipe. I think of trying it at home. I'm fun of watching football in my cable.



 

I've had sausage on the barbecue years ago with Molson Canadian poured onto it as it simmered on aluminum foil. It was good.

I haven't experimented with different brands of beer though, at least not yet.

 

How about grilled pork, grilled fish wrapped in tinfoil and a bottles of beer? I 've seen young men in town doing this stuffs while watching football in the TV.

 

I have prepared chicken the night before grilling using a bock beer.  D-lish

2 cloves of Garlic pressed
Corse black pepper
Diced red onion
1 diced Jalepeno
1 12 oz beer
6 - 9 chicken breast butterflied.

Put ingredients into a freezer ziplock bag overnight in the fridge. Put the chicken on the grill & save the juice in the bag to apply during grilling.

 

Oktoberfest! of course.
