When I started brewing there wasn't really an Internet yet, so I didn't know I was supposed to start with extract. So I made a few ciders (Applejack, really) and then just started all grain with a bucket, a colander, a 5 gallon pot, and some hose. And that's what I've been doing for the last 18 years.
That said, there is an extract recipe I discovered 8 years ago or so when I was looking for an ESB, and I still go to it when I'm in the brew store and feel the urge. A "Fat Cat ESB" Clone based on an old Cambridge Brewing Co. beer that is just... good. Sure it's more expensive but it's fast and easy and always gooooood.
Beer is beer right? Mmmmmm.... Beeeeer....
