Beer Grilled Cheese recipe:
BEER GRILLED CHEESE
Ingredients
-
3 eggs
-
1 cup Chestnut Brown Ale or other nutty, brown ale
-
1/4 cup flour
-
2 teaspoons salt
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
-
1 loaf sourdough bread, cut into 1" slices
-
1 block mild or sharp cheddar cheese, sliced
-
4 tablespoons butter, plus more if needed
-
Optional toppings: bacon, sliced ham, prosciutto, avocado (optional)

Directions
-
In a bowl, whisk the eggs, beer, flour, salt and garlic powder in a large shallow bowl.
-
Dunk 1 slice of bread into the batter on both sides, giving it a second to fully absorb the batter, and let the excess batter drain back into the bowl.
-
Move to another plate, and top with cheese and additional toppings if desired (bacon, sliced ham, etc.).
-
Repeat with another slice of bread, and complete the sandwich.
-
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the middle, and let cook on each side 3-4 minutes, until it reaches a crispy golden brown and a gooey cheese middle.
-
Plate, add garnishes, and serve.

Notes
-
Jazz up the recipe, make it into a breakfast sandwich with bacon, prosciutto, or sliced ham.
-
Keep it vegetarian with a sliced avocado on top.
-
There's never a wrong way to eat a grilled cheese.
