Hey guys, just wanted to let you know I hosted an amazing five-course BBQ at my brewery/restaurant today using some of the ideas I’ve found here. The dinner was $250 per person for the courses, and the funds were donated to a number of charity organizations. Each recipe was created with a beer in mind, and each was served with a different beer (meaning 24+ different beers were used in preparation for this dinner – each dish also had a side). Most of the beers for this dinner were brewed just for this dinner so many of them do not have names. If you know your beers, you’d know some of these guys aged for 2-3 years. Anyway, 125 people came, and it was a success. Keep in mind each BBQ sauce was homemade, as well as the mustards, and everything was made sustainable and organically (we even raised the geese!). The clients also were given the option to try the beer which was used to cook the dishes after the dinner and then we had a beer tasting for the rest (which over 200 people came to!). I’ve posted the menu, PM me for recipe requests.
