On the same note here is a site with 40 pages (if you print them) of Guinness recopies.  I made the Guinness bread and Irish Stew yesterday and they turned out pretty good.

  So my lovely husband, Snorri, realized at 10pm on Sunday night that he needed to take something to work on Monday for their monthly potluck lunch/dinner.  And since this is March the potluck had an Irish theme.  Now to most folks this would denote something with a shamrock or something green.  To my husband, the authenticity nazi (I love you honey*grin*), this means an actual Irish recipe.  So without further ado, I give you...

  Steak & Guinness Pie

  1kg. round steak
  1Tbs. flour
  1tsp. brown sugar
  1Tbs. raisins (optional)
  5 whole onions
  300ml Guinness Draught
  8 slices bacon
  3 oz. lard (margarine or butter can be substituted)
  chopped parsley
  pie crust

  1> Cut steak into bite-sized cubes.  Cut bacon into small pieces.  Roll steak in seasoned flour & brown in lard (margarine/butter) with bacon.
  2> Place meat into a casserole dish.  Peel & chop the onions & soften them in butter.  Add onions to casserole dish.
  3> Add raisins (if desired), brown sugar & Guinness.  Cover tightly and let simmer over a low heat on the stove or in a medium oven (325-350F) for 2 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.  Add water or more Guinness if gravy becomes too thick.
  4> While that simmers, line a deep pie dish with pie crust & bake blind.  Add Guinness/meat mixture and cover with top crust.  Bake in medium oven until done (about 20 more minutes).

  I have yet to hear a complaint about "beer pie" as they have dubbed it at Snorri's work.  But they did make each other take a field sobriety test before they could go back to work *giggle*.  Enjoy!

  *hugs*
