I picked up a box of Trader Joe's Beer Bread Mix the other day and decided to give it a shot on the BGE...

Ingredients and instructions are pretty simple...mix, beer, butter, BGE...:cool:

I'll take a couple of slice pics when it cools...it smells awesome! :p
 
Can't wait to hear how it turned out. I've got that same loaf pan just dying to be used in the BGE.
 
Nice !!!

I just had beer bread for the first time at a holiday party the other day.. It was really good... I have no idea if it was from a box mix though but it looks very similar..
 
Here's the finished product...dayum it's good! :biggrin:

It'll go great with the tri-tip roasts that are on the BGE as I type...but that's another thread...:cool:
 
Wow that bread looks great and it's gota be light after all you used a "Silver Bullet".
 
It looks great JD!!

I can't believe beer bread comes in a box!! :eek::-D If you want to make your own, it's really easy.

3 cups of self rising flour
1 beer
1/4 cup of sugar and a little bit of salt.


Your looks danged tasty. :wink:

Yes, things come in boxes in places that have indoor plumbing and electricity... :twisted:
 
Does the recipe call for a light beer? I'm wondering how it would turn out of you used a nice amber or brown ale.

My wife took my "Artisan Bread in 5 minutes" book and is going wild with it. I'm lovin it. I brought a piece of sourdough to work today. Maybe I'll try and get her out on the BGE to try a few recipes.

Thanks

I've cooked with a lot of different beers, just make sure it's carbonated and not nitrogen. The CO2 is the key to the beer/bread interaction. I used a Guinness once...it worked-ish.

Might I suggest Jeanie's recipe, an extra cup of sugar, use whole wheat instead of regular white flour, and a strong porter.

Jburt is right, you can adjust the sugar to suit your tastes. I'm just not fond of the sweeter bread but others might be! :wink:

Make your own Jeanie...store bought stuff isn't all it's cracked up to be...too much extra crap tossed in that doesn't need to be there. Rhana and I were in TJ's picking up some wines and came across it...normally we make from scratch as well. :cool:

Do you use all purpose flour in your recipe?

JD, I use self rising flour.... LOL... You can buy it or I have the recipe for that too. :redface::biggrin:
 
I made a loaf of a similar beer bread on Sunday. Baked it in the oven though, was super tasty. Couldn't believe how easy and good it was.
