Been overdosing on pasta and pizza lately, and I needed a change of pace. I had no plans and no idea what to do, so I started rifling through the pantry and fridge to see what my options were.
Here are some green onions! A potato! Some coconut milk! I know we have some curry [...]
Yes, round two with my world famous spaghetti with Italian sausage with creamy tomato sauce. Still top notch even as a leftover. I credit the perseverance of tastiness here to my keeping all the parts separate in the fridge. Sauce separate from noodles separate from sausage.
Serve it all up on a plate and microwave for [...]

I had previously done a successful pairing with Sweetwater IPA and an Italian dish, but the food was kinda crudely thrown together, and it featured a cream sauce. I wanted to give it another go with a more properly-prepared Italian dish, and one featuring a tomato-based sauce. If I keep this blog going long enough [...]

Fantastic. I’m going to have jump on the “IPAs with spicy food” bandwagon.
The wings were frozen (and thawed) and deep fried in canola oil till lightly browned. Then I poured on some Ken’s Steakhouse wing sauce. Intense stuff.
And really, it’s hard to imagine anything other than an IPA working here. The ultra-spicy wing sauce is [...]
Look, I didn’t choose overly descriptive name. This recipe came from Robin Miller on Food TV. My wife has been doing Miller’s “Quick Fix Meals” this week, which included the earlier-reviewed beef brisket that has now been turned into a soft taco with garlic avocado cream and roasted asparagus salsa. Really, there is not much [...]
So Doug is brimming with doubts and fears about pairing IPAs. Obviously, it must now be my mission in life to find good IPA pairings.
Tonight featured a little something I shot from the hip. I essentially just scoured my fridge and freezer for ingredients that needed to be used up and which would go together. [...]

This is the flip side of Danner’s recent visit to the J Clyde where he had a Good People Brewing Co. IPA followed by an Olde Towne Amber with his fried green tomato BLT. I also had two beers with a sandwich. My first was the long-anticipated GPBC Coffee Oatmeal Stout. The sandwich: a roast [...]

This is what it’s all about. Doug and I hit the Clyde last night to enjoy some world class food and beer along with the musical stylings of the Will Cash Quartet.
I of course started things off with a delicious Good People IPA:
Foodwise I was in the mood for something relatively light, so I sprung [...]
That would be a Lean Cuisine Panini. Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it. Whatever its flaws, this picture at least catches the really nice grill marks from the special tray they include in the package; those aren’t fake grill lines, they were created by the microwave! Ooooo.
I’d never heard of the beer before. It [...]

Avoid.
While I was cooking dinner tonight I was sipping on a DFH 60 Minute IPA. We happened to have some falafel in the fridge (something else I bought at Costco) so I started munching on one to snack while cooking. While not earth-shatteringly fantastic, the Costco falafel is pretty good. And of course DFH 60 [...]
