The Ultimate Beer Lover's Cookbook


Looking for a new summer hobby? How about cooking with beer? The Ultimate Beer Lover's Cookbook, just released today, has over 400 recipes all including beer. This would make the perfect father's day gift or anytime give for your chef. He can try all the recipes on you!
From John Schlimm's website:
Now beer fans everywhere can have their favorite brew and eat it too! Dating back thousands of years to ancient Babylonia, beer is the most famous and beloved thirst quencher the world has ever known. The Bible praises it, Egyptians were buried with it, our Founding Fathers depended on it, medical journals prescribe it, and Noah and the Mayflower set sail with it. Whether, kegged, bottled, canned, free-flowing, or whipped into Golden Cheesecake, beer is all about friendship, laughter, and celebrating life to the fullest.

More than ten years in the making, The Ultimate Beer Lover's Cookbook is an unprecedented collection of more than 400 food and drink recipes containing beer as a main ingredient. From scrambled eggs made with beer at breakfast and a cheese steak sandwich with onion rings or a beer burger and Chocolate Beershake for lunch, to a surf 'n' turf beer-infused combo of lobster and steak for dinner (and a midnight snack of chocolate-dipped strawberries), beer lovers can feast on brewskis at any time of the day. Every genre of food is included: appetizers, breads, soups and chili, salads, fruits and vegetables, sandwiches, sauces, marinades, beef, poultry, pork, wild game, stews, fish and seafood, past, and desserts.

The Ultimate Beer Lover's Cookbook also serves as a party drinks handbook, with a comprehensive collection of recipes for mixed drinks, chuggers, shots, chasers, party punches, milkshakes, and flaming drinks — all made with beer. From the Buzzy Navel, Beer Bullet, Red-Headed Mary, and Beertini to the Woodpecker, Atomic Diva, Garden of Eden Punch, and Flaming Sake Bomb, this anthology of beer's greatest pairings is sure to leave beer lovers spinning for joy.

With an introduction chronicling beer's history, as well as hilarious beer quotes by the world's most illustrious beer fans peppered amidst the recipes, The Ultimate Beer Lover's Cookbook is a rousing tribute to a tasty icon more than 7,000 years in the making.
Enjoy!

An update on my cat, Summersault. She is still in the hospital with a liver infection. She's hooked up to an IV getting nutrients, but she's not eating on her own. Today was the first day she was holding down the food they force her to eat. Tonight and tomorrow are the most critical days-please pray for her! I visit her every day at the Hoboken Animal Hospital, but my life just isn't the same without her. I'm not a "cat lady"...but actually...I am. I've got a subscription to Cat Fancy Magazine and a huge bumper sticker that says: "I love my CATS!" Yeah, I'm THAT lady.
Thanks for all of your support!

Hilary,
I'm sorry to hear about Summersault. She is absolutely beautiful and I will be praying for her recovery. I have three of my own and they really are members of the family. It sounds like she is getting the best of care. Best wishes!

I have been thinking and praying for sweet Summersault. She has been on my mind a lot as I am getting together silent aution donations for the annual FurBall. I help the Oklahoma Volunteers for Animal Welfare with that each year. Pets are FAMILY for sure...I hope your family is back together soon.
Take care!
