As we all know many of us home brewers are into making our own foodstuffs, cheese, jerky, raising chickens, gardening etc. Are there any of you out there that are into making your own hot sauce? I got a real nice food processor/blender base for Christmas and I had about 1lb of cayenne peppers...

This past weekend I officially joined the AG ranks and did two 5 gallon batches, a pub ale and a robust porter. Single infusion mash. Everything went great on both batches, the only mishap was a stuck sparge on the pub ale due to the SS braid getting jammed on the rubbermaid, but with a little...

The Irish Fair is coming up this weekend at Harriet Island in St Paul, Whos going? Im looking forward to the food festivities and of course the drinks :mug: Not to mention Flogging Molly is headlining Friday and Saturday night!

So over the last few weeks I have been researching, reading up and considering trying my hand at pickling some things. I really enjoy pickled peppers and mushrooms so I think thats what Im going to try out first. Im going to be picking up some mason jars and other stuff tonight and hopefully...

Anyone intersted in taking the Summit Brewery tour in St Paul on one of the next couple Saturdays? I was thinking about going on either April 26th or May 3rd. The tours are free and happen at 1pm, and require a call ahead reservation. Afterwards Im thinking a stop into Great Waters for lunch...

So last night SWMBO and I went to the new Granite City in our area for a couple drinks and dinner. We got there to a modest 15 minute wait, not bad-we went to the bar to wait. I ordered their Bock, and SWMBO tried the Light Lager. I drank the Bock- Not bad, but not great. It was just kind of...

Come rain or shine, Im having a brew day on Saturday April 12th at my house in Brooklyn Park. If any of you other Twin Cities area brewers are interested in joining Ive got room in the garage for you to set up your stuff and brew, or if you want to just swing by and hang out, bring some...

In addition to a very successful druck chicken on the grill last night, I also threw together a nice little shrimp dish as an appetizer, except because of drucken mishaps it was a post-appetizer. Sorry no pictures this time :( I hope someone out there gets the reference to the recipe name...

So last night we did a little grillin' and a little drinkin' at my house and I decided I would make up a drunk chicken. My favorite meat market was selling whole chickens for $1.50/Lb so I just had to snatch one up. The finished product was fall off the bone juicy delicious chicken, mmmmmmm...

Hey its getting to be about that time again, it seems like we will finally be consistently above freezing here in Minnesota. Any of you MN brewers out there want to get a group brew organized and going within the next month or so? Reply here or send me a PM and lets get this truck rolling...

So a buddy of mine one way or another received a gift certificate from Northern Brewer for 70 bucks. My buddy is not a brewer by any means and had no interest in using the certificate. I made away with the certificate in a trade for a few of my Dunkelweizen homebrews. Awesome deal if you ask me...

I thought this would be neat to share with the archery and bow hunting crowd! vwMSy7xK218 These are asian carp, an extremely destructive invasive species that are taking over rivers all the way from the Gulf to the central/midwestern states. What better way to get some target practice in!

So in light of things that go hand in hand with beer, I was curious if there were any other fellow disc golfer-brewers out there. Personally its one of my favorite things to do on a nice day(when the snow and slush isnt coating the ground), aside from BBQing or fishing. What are some of your...

Tonight was a hot pepper night so I felt like making a few hor 'dourves for a couple of people. This is my infamous Jalapeno popper recipe... This is a super easy (minus the pepper cutting) recipe for a tasty snack with some heat. Disclaimer: You might want help from a friend. 20-30...

This is just a little hor 'dorves Ive been making over the last couple years. Normally it is grilled over charcoal but the BBQ grill is covered in snow and its -30º so I baked them in the oven. Here we go... The quantities of ingredients can vary, this isnt a critical scientific process, its...
