Ok. I’ll pick a random beer and make some with dinner tonight.

Try them all – each one gives it a different flavor. So far our favorite has actually been Fosters, but that’s just us.

Also, we nearly always cook with turkey or venison vs. beef. I remember you use beef in your taco meat recipe – I might have to give it a try! I know we like it in our chili beef! I bet it would be good in beans, too, since sometimes I like to use beans instead of meat in tacos.

BTW, in your healthier cooking…should you ever want to replace ground beef with ground turkey….As soon as it isn’t pink, add 1/2 an amber beer and cook off to glaze the meat. Good for turkey burgers and especially taco meat. You add the rest of your beer when you add your taco seasoning. Same goes for chili. Far more depth of flavor…not the same as beef…but saturated fat and all that.

All the butter was not absorbed by the bread, though. About 2 to 3 tbsp. of butter came spilling out of the pan when I turned it out to cool. Should I have left it in the pan to cool and absorb more butter?
