What Should I Do With It?

Brewsmith · Nov 30, 2006

I was cleaning out the fridge that will be the temperature controlled fermentation chamber, and found stashed away two cans of MGD. I don't particularly care for MGD, but my dad does. I can't really return it to the previous owner of the fridge since they are now out of the state. What should I do with them?

Keep them for BMAC friends or Dad. SOMEONE will drink em

Walker · Nov 30, 2006

I voted "keep it for the BMC friends". That's what I'll do with the coors and bud that got left here over thanksgiving.

Or... cook some brats in it. It's terrible beer to drink, but if you reduce it down by about half the volume it actually has some flavor. That's what I normally do with any BMC that gets left at my place.

Yeah I wouldn't sacrifice it to the beer gods, they may get angry..

Dude · Nov 30, 2006

I second the "cook with it" suggestion. Beer can chicken, or yes, dump the cans in a pot and throw in some brats, simmer for 20 mins, and grill. Heaven on a bun. No ketchup, please.

Beer Butt Chicken comes to mind.

Glad to hear you say that - and it goes for hotdogs too!

I keep some Coors around for brining sausage.

ryser2k · Nov 30, 2006

Pour two cans out for your fallen homies

Desert_Sky · Nov 30, 2006

hell, just drink them dude.

Sir Humpsalot · Nov 30, 2006

Another vote for cooking brats in them!!!!

JimiGibbs · Nov 30, 2006

Keep them around ... Someone will drink them. Although the brats sounds pretty good!

Ditto!

Sir Humpsalot · Nov 30, 2006

I don't understand why you would give the beer to my dad.

Brewsmith · Nov 30, 2006

So far the theme seems to be cooking some brats in them. Not a bad idea. I need another reason to fire up the grill.

Wolf · Nov 30, 2006

Another vote for brats. It's how I clean up all the BMC left behind at my house during the summer.

Cheesefood · Nov 30, 2006

Man, I personally LOVE MGD. I don't get how you can hate it.

Brewsmith · Nov 30, 2006

I don't hate it, I just don't prefer it to other BMC beers.

disaffected · Nov 30, 2006

I'm with Dude and Ed Wort on this. BCC = Beer Can Chicken. Any BMC style twelve ounce works fine for a roasting a 3.5 to 4.5 pound chicken on your grill.

sullifan · Nov 30, 2006

Save it til spring- the slugs will love it! Or use it to steam some dogs. Hard to beat garnished w/ onion, pickle, & tomato.

feedthebear · Nov 30, 2006

I'd use it to clean the toilet.

Beer fried brats. What a good idea. That might just be dinner tonight.

Treekiller · Nov 30, 2006

Heck send it to me, I will cook brats with them. Dang now I am hungry all over again.

dblvsn · Dec 1, 2006

I'll throw another vote in for soaking brats in 'em. Why waste a quality homebrew or commercial brew when you can use MGD

Wheat King · Dec 1, 2006

crap you fools are making me hungry, and i just finished eating literally 30 minutes ago.

mark another vote for cooking with it

sudsmonkey · Dec 1, 2006

You could: 1. Touch Rhoobarb's avatar on her luscious butt with them.
2. Man up and drink them. It's only commercial beer.
Or, my personal favorite:
3. Shake 'em up really good and shoot them with a large caliber rifle.. This is my personal favorite. You really don't know how old they are or how fresh. Unleash your inner redneck and make 'em go " boom!".

Brewsmith · Dec 1, 2006

I was thinking of making an option "use for target practice" but I don't own a rifle...yet.

As far as the drinking part. It wouldn't take much "manning up" but I would prefer other BMC's over MGD. I still think I'm going with the brat solution.
