We do a lot of fishing and one of the favorite dishes around our house is a beer battered fish fry. It is wonderful with malt vinegar. I also put beer in my crape batter.

Neither my husband or I drink beer very often, I’m more about wine, and he’s more about tequila or whiskey if we’re going to drink something, so we often have leftover beer that we’ve stocked for guests, or beer that friends have brought over. And it sits in the refrigerator forever! I’ve always thought our beer drinking friends need to visit more often, or we need to make more beer drinking friends. Maybe I can take it to a specified secret arranged drop off spot near the local college, as we all know that most college kids would be glad to have it, but I’m sure that isn’t the brightest idea either. So no, I don’t have any ideas.

Fill a saucepan, add some sliced bell peppers and onions, and throw in some brats. Delicious!

I agree with Claire R. Leftover Beer?…You’re funny!
I’m actually a Wine person and I would never cook with a wine I wouldn’t drink. If it’s bad to drink, it’s bad in your food too. I never ever have leftover wine either. Ha

I’ve never hear of ‘left over’ beer!! I just crack open a new bottle when I need it for cooking…then drink the rest.

As for beer I don’t particularly like…I just invite people over that like it. I have used those beer in cooking, but don’t like the flavor in the foods any more than I like the taste drinking it.

If you can’t be bothered to cook but can’t bear to just dump it down the drain, beer makes a great hair rinse! Use between shampoo and conditioner for extra shine.

This is my favorite summer recipe that uses beer. There are several steps and it takes time, but it is SO GOOD. http://www.williams-sonoma.com/recipe/beer-braised-barbecued-chicken.html?cm_src=RECIPESEARCH

I’ll also suggest a beer cheese dip for soft pretzels, beer cheese soup, beer bread, cook brats in beer (with sliced onions and sauerkraut).

Beer is wonderful in chili and my other favorite way to use it is to make incredibly light batter for onion rings. I’ll bet it would be good in corn dog batter, too, although I haven’t tried it for that. I can’t understand pouring it down the sink–no one has ever guessed that there is beer used in my onion ring batter, beef stew, or chili. The alcohol cooks out, so no one needs to worry about that.
