BEER SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Pour the beer into a large pot, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Layer the potatoes into the bottom of the pot, and sprinkle a little Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Layer the baby carrots, onion, smoked sausage, and cabbage, sprinkling every layer with a bit more of the Italian seasonings, salt, and pepper. Turn heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 45 minutes.

BEST EVER SAUSAGE WITH PEPPERS, ONIONS, AND BEER!

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium high heat. Cook sausage until browned on all sides. Remove sausage from pan, and set aside. Pour in 1 bottle of beer to deglaze the pan, scraping up any blackened bits from the bottom. Place the red peppers, green peppers, onions and garlic in the pan. Stir in the remaining beer and the tomato paste. Season with oregano, cilantro, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Cover, and simmer until onions and peppers are tender. Slice the sausages into bite size pieces, and add to the peppers. Cover, and simmer until sausage is cooked through.

BEEF IN BEER

Steps:

• Heat the beef drippings and oil together in a saute pan. Working in batches, brown the beef strips on all sides. Remove from the pan. In the same pan, fry the onions until soft, about 15 minutes, then add the garlic for 1 minute. Remove. (Check if there is fat in the pan. If not, add a good tablespoon of butter and let it melt.) Add the flour and sugar to the pan and cook for 1 minute to make a roux. Gradually whisk in the stock and bring to a boil. (At this point, turn the oven on to 325 degrees F/160 degrees C.) Add the beer and vinegar to the boiling stock, and bring back to a boil, cooking until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• In a large casserole dish, layer the onions alternately with the beef strips, seasoning each layer as you go with salt and pepper. Tuck in the bouquet garni and pour the sauce over. Cover and bake for 2 1/2 hours. If you can wait a day before eating, cool the dish completely when it's out of the oven and refrigerate overnight: the flavor will be even better when you reheat it.

BEER-SIMMERED GRILLED SAUSAGES

Steps:

• 1. Prick each sausage a half-dozen times with a needle or pin stuck in a cork. Arrange the onion slices on the bottom of a sauté pan just large enough to hold all the sausages. Place the sausages on top and add beer and water to cover (the ratio should be about 3 parts beer to 1 part water). Place the pan over medium heat and gradually bring the liquid to a simmer, not a rapid boil. Poach the sausages until half-cooked, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the sausages to a rack on a baking sheet to drain or drain in a colander. Separate the sausages into links.
• 2. Set up the grill for direct grilling and preheat to medium-high.
• 3. When ready to cook, brush and oil the grill grate. Lightly brush the sausages on all sides with oil and place on the hot grate. Grill until the casings are crisp and nicely browned and the sausages are cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes per side. You may want to rotate the sausages 90 degrees after 2 minutes on each side to create an attractive crosshatch of grill marks. Should flare-ups arise, move the sausages to a different section of the grill. Use a slender metal skewer to test for doneness. Insert it into the center of one of the sausages: It should come out hot to the touch.
• 4. Transfer the sausages to plates or a platter and let rest for 3 minutes. Serve with plenty of mustard.
• Variations: Poaching is optional and not every grill jockey does it. If you omit the poaching, you'll need to grill the sausages 7 to 10 minutes per side.
• For absolutely foolproof sausage grilling, use the indirect method. The sausages will be fully cooked in about 30 minutes.

CABBAGE AND SAUSAGES BRAISED IN BEER

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the sausages and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.
• Add the beer and mustard and simmer until slightly reduced, about 3 minutes.
• Add the cabbage, stir to combine, cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Stir again and cook for an additional 2-4 minutes until the cabbage is wilted but still green.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.

• Add the onion and garlic to the pot; cook and stir until clear and starting to brown. Return the meat the pot, and pour in the beer and water making sure to loosen any bits of food from the bottom of the pan. Season with rosemary, dill and parsley.

Steps:

• Prick each sausage in several places with tip of small knife. Pour beer into bottom of pan fitted with steaming rack or basket, making sure beer doesn't cover rack, and heat beer to boiling. Adjust heat to maintain gentle boil and place sausages on rack. Steam covered until sausages are firm to the touch and just cooked through, 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to paper towels.
• About 10 minutes before serving, heat butter and oil in large heavy skillet. Pat sausages dry and place in skillet. Saute, turning with tongs, until well browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Cut sausages diagonally into 3 or 4 pieces each. Serve hot with cornichons, onions, and mustard.
