Beer Gravy? is it really made?

Raelene Cunnick: If it's listed in the ingredients, then that should have given you the answer. Yes, there is beer in beer gravy. NO, there is no alcohol left in the gravy to get you or anyone drunk.

Germaine Tieken: I like making Bratwurst with peppers and onions and cook them in beer. Makes sort of a Beer Gravy and it's very tasty.

Vickie Clampett: camping requires either carrying along a lot of water for drinking and cooking or other liquids like beer and soda. I have used both or rather all for making gravy on campfire! Have also used those guys beer to make pancakes and biscuits at the camp site.Yes, you can use beer for the liquid in your gravy even at home. It does foam a lot so be ready with the whisk to stir rapidly! It gives the gravy a malty/hops flavor but by the time it has cooked to thickness there is no more alcohol left than would be in a cake from adding vanilla extract!...Show more

Here are tips for cooking with liqour and what it goes best with!Beer gravy (Add 1 can) = Meat and chicken. Add some onion!Cognac (Add 2 tablespoons) = Meat. Add only stock, cognac is like a more powerful Madeira.Madeira (1/3 - 1/2 a cup) = Meat. Add only stock, madeira is packed with flavour.White wine (0,75 - 1 cup) = Fish.
