Cooking with Beer, Boston Lager BBQ Sauce...

Its summer (for most of us anyway) and that means, pools, beaches, baseball, beers and BBQ! So, add some flavor to your BBQ, with some homemade BBQ made with Sam Adam's Boston Lager!

Give it a shot, here's the recipe....

Ingredients List
1 Bottle of Boston Lager
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 an onion, chopped fine
1/2 cup finely chopped garlic
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1/4 brown sugar
3/4 cup red wine vinager
1 cup ketchup
2 tbsp salt
2 tbsp pepper
1/4 cup tomato paste

In a large sauce pan, add ingredients, heat, stir and cover. Reduce by half, and simmer over low heat for at least 2 to 3 hours. Stir occasionally.


Add this to your favorite chicken, steak or burgers to add a little flavor to your next BBQ. Wash it all down with some Boston Lager (or some other fine local craft brew!)

Obviously you can swap out Boston Lager for any other beer you would like, or find similar, better or just different, whatever you would like. Mix it up, try it out, experiment with it to make it perfect, just the way you like it. This is just sort of a base to start from. Enjoy.....

Until next time
