SHRIMP WITH SPICY CHILI AND BEER SAUCE
"Caribbean food has become a real favorite of mine," writes Cindy M. Wright of Tarzana, California. "I just love the flavors of this spicy cuisine. One of the best places in my area is Cha Cha Cha in Encino. I've enjoyed everything I've had there, but I especially like the shrimp and rice dish called camarones ******."
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
6 large garlic cloves, chopped
2 teaspoons finely ground black pepper
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
30 uncooked large shrimp, peeled, deveined
2 cups Jamaican lager or other lager beer
6 cups low-salt chicken broth
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon honey
Freshly cooked white rice
Melt 6 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chopped garlic, black pepper, dried thyme, and cayenne pepper and stir 1 minute. Add shrimp and sauté 1 minute. Stir in beer. Using slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to large bowl. Add chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, and honey to skillet and boil until sauce is reduced to 1 1/4 cups and coats spoon thinly, about 45 minutes. Return shrimp to sauce and simmer until shrimp are just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Serve with rice.
Makes 4 servings.

BEER BATTER BREAD
click photo to enlarge
3 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 bottle (12 ounces) beer, at room temperature
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients. Add the beer all at once, mixing as little as possible; the batter should be lumpy.
Pour the batter into a 9-x-5-x-3-inch loaf pan and brush with the melted butter. Bake in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until an inserted skewer comes out clean. Turn out onto a rack to cool.
Makes 1 loaf.

ONION AND GARLIC BEER SOUP
For a different take on onion soup, a traditional beef-broth base is here spiked with beer and fortified with garlic. Rye-bread croutons top this simple soup, which, with the addition of a salad, makes a fine fall supper.
4 pounds onions (about 10), sliced thin
4 large garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
a 12-ounce bottle of beer (not dark)
5 1/4 cups beef broth
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 slices of day-old rye bread, crusts discarded and the bread cut into 1/2 inch cubes
freshly grated Parmesan as an accompaniment
In a heavy kettle cook the onions and the garlic in the oil over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is browned. Stir in the beer and the broth, simmer the mixture, covered, for 45 minutes, and stir in the sugar and salt and pepper to taste. While the soup is simmering, in a heavy skillet melt the butter over moderate heat, add the bread cubes, and cook them, stirring, until they are golden. Divide the soup among 6 bowls and top it with the Parmesan and the croutons.
Makes about 12 cups, serving 6.

So many recipes call for the use of beer. The best web site to find them would be recipesource.com. I know there are bread recipes, not too sure about cakes and cookies though.

Beer bread, but its pretty nasty. Try Drunken Chicken. Stick an open can of beer in a whole chicken, stand it up on the grill and cook until all the pink is gone. Perfection.
