10 Ways to Cook with Beer

Given how much we all love firing it up in the kitchen and cracking open a cold brew, why not double your pleasure and cook with beer while you drink it? We've found that the friendliest brews for cooking tend to be dark, like brown ales, porters, or stouts. Here, we're running the gamut of recipes: bread, breakfasts, soup, sides, mains, and even a dessert. So, what are you waiting for? With one bottle for you and one for your dinner, that leaves four more in your six pack to talk your friends into becoming your kitchen helpers. Cheers!
