I recon casserols are way better with HB than wine in many cases.
I love the beef chuck, soaked in stout/dark/old overnight in the fridge, then slow-cooked with onions, carrots, peas, pepper and rosemary.
Speaking of which, I might go get the ingredients for that now...
And KEG, this was the topic I was refering to, simply because no-one else was posting on it, and I couldn't get accussed of hijacking. Now everyone is here!
Which is actually good, as this part of the forum was dying.
Have posted this before but its one of my fave winter stews.
beef cubes, bacon, pickled walnuts, prunes, 2 fat cans of guinness. Thyme, rosemary. garlic, chilli. Lots of room for creativity. Cook on low heat in oven for a minimum of 4 hours. Did this loads living in the UK but i will be trying this again soon with some Coopers stout since i dont brew any myself.
