BEST Food with BEER??

cheezydemon3 · Aug 21, 2013

This threatened to de-rail the homemade pizza thread, so needed to be culled, but seemed to merit a real discussion.

Obviously the idea that PIZZA was the best thing to eat with good beer was put forth.

Chicken wings threatened to de-throne Pizza.

What is your favorite food with beer?

We may do a poll after everyone chimes in.

I am gonna vote...

Between tacos, chili, wings, and pizza i'm now starving.

It's so hard to decide which food is #1 with beer... they are all special. And tasty.

Beer is too good to pair with food.

JonM · Aug 21, 2013

Absolute favorite is this: Julia Child used to say that "Pork likes apples." (Or maybe it was Jacques Pepin?) Anyway, my hard cider is phenomenal with pork any way - smoked, grilled, broiled, pan fried, etc. Any cut - butt, chops, tenderloin, ribs, you name it, it is awesome with good hard cider.

EDIT: Brandon O's Graff is really frickin' good with pork, too.

Inject the bejesus out of a a big pork butt with that cider, let it sit overnight, then throw it on a smoker at 250 for ten hours or so. Nothing's better.

This could be from college eating at Sanford's all the time in Spearfish, but burgers and beer is always a good decision.

Oh my brother......

Why do you feel like you need to exclude sweet foods?

You misunderstand! Just had to wrap my head around it.

Sweets and beer.......no problem, just need to try it!

Reminds me of a line I heard at a beer dinner. The head brewer from a big craft brewery was talking about the possibilities of beer/food pairings and said "It used to be that the only thing you could pair with beer was pizza."
