Mamma Mia! Pizza Beer Bread

I love making Beer Bread. I’m not a fan of complicated or labor intensive recipes, and beer bread is the easiest bread recipes I’ve ever made and it only had 5 ingredients.

I first made Beer Bread 3 or 4 years ago. We had a get together at our house in Georgia, and we’d been hanging out by the pool all. I was a little tipsy when I went inside to start dinner. I threw together the ingredients (I honestly don’t remember measuring anything), put it in the oven, and went back to the pool. Some how, I remembered the bread baking in the oven and pulled it out just in time. How many beer recipes can you make after a day drinking all day?

I used Mamma Mia! Pizza Beer for this recipe. Pizza Beer is exactly what is sounds like. It has all the flavors of pizza in beer form. It has Oregano, Basil, Tomatoes, and Garlic. Weird combo for a beer, but it’s OK. It was perfect for my bread though.

If you can’t find Pizza Beer, try a Lager, Pale Ale, Pilsner, Wheat, or IPA for this recipe. I highly recommend enjoying this beer warm out of the oven.

Ginny gave the beer two paws up too. Huck left the leftover bread on the stove and Ginny decided to help himself to my Beer Bread. He almost went to the pound for that one. I was really looking forward to leftovers. Luckily for him, this recipes is super easy.

I have 2 more great recipes to post with Mamma Mia’s Pizza Beer. Hopefully, it will not take me a week to post another recipe.

Pulled Pork Sliders with Honey Oat Beer Buns…OMG!

This has to be my favorite recipe to date. Or at least my favorite picture!

Try not to lick the screen. I know it’s hard. I had to restrain myself, and I have leftovers. These buns were a mix between a bun and biscuit. The outside had the texture of a bun, but the inside was flakey like a biscuit. I thought they worked great with the Pork.

This recipe would be great for a Memorial Day Get Together. I cooked a large Boston Butt in the Slow Cooker, but you can roast it in the oven or boil on the stove. It’s an easy way to feed lots of people. And it’s cheap!

Once the pork was done, I heated a pan and seared the pork to add a little crunch. Huck’s favorite part of smoked meat is the “bark”. Searing the meat helps recreate that crunch he enjoys. I added my AMAZING Beer BBQ Sauce to the pan to coat the meat and add a nice glaze.

A silent mouth is sweet to hear

Last night I prepared an (Americanized) Irish feast. We even had Irish beer. Oh and those amazing cupcakes!!

I made Corned Beef, Cabbage, Carrots, Mashed Potatoes, and the worst bread ever Beer Bread. I’ve never cooked Corned Beef before and always get nervous cooking new stuff for guest.

The house smelled like pastrami and beer all day.
