Mix ingredients, bake at 350 for one hour.

A really delicious bread, especially when made with craft beers.

The greatest con in the history of the world is the rich convincing the middle class that the poor are the ones ripping them off...

So in the Republican Bible, instead of handing out loaves and fishes, did Jesus give out corporate subsidies and hundreds of job applications for the same dozen openings?

I said "despite a mountain of evidence to the contrary."

Facts. How do they work?

With this crowd, they don't.

I think the recipe says you leave the bitter part (head) on a pike, or something?

Mountain goes in, mountain left out. Always a miscommunication.

Do. It's been one of my staples for years.

Using darker beers seems to draw sugar to the crust, leaving you with a crispy, sweet outside, and a tender, aromatic inside.

Also: works great for soup/chili bowls with a thick, strong crust. Far easier to make than bread from scratch, and unlike bread machines, no hole in the bottom.

Ed: I have noticed since moving to Montana from Seattle, that at higher elevations, you need a tad more than one beer. I have been using maybe 14-15 ounces. Good excuse to have to crack a 2nd beer, then drink it to avoid waste.

Didn't Dubya want people to be able to put food on their family? Has Republican policy changed recently?

It's just like Jesus taught: Starve the poor lest they always be with you.

Sheesh. We all know that these food stamp people* waste their SNAP benefits on Lobster and Steak dinners, and other useless things. Such as a small selection of candy for Easter or Christmas. Or, you know, Top Ramen for the kiddos.

*Food stamp people refers to, despite a mountain of evidence to the contrary, blah people, messicans, and lazy liberals.

Repubicans love sacred human life when it's still inside the lady parts, but after birth it's every fetus for him- or herself..
