  • Reviews

  • “Pretty great, but I didn’t include the ketchup in mine.”

  • “Great recipe.I used a local black malt beer which is non-alchoholic.I also threw everything into a roasting bag, tied a knot in it and tossed it into the crock pot.Hours later we had a wonderful dinner with very little clean-up.”

  • “Great recipe. I use Black & Tan beer which is very bitter, but rounded out the sweetness of the katchup and tomatoe paste quite nicely.I also added about a tablespoon of crushed red pepper flakes.”

  • “This is a great winter warm up. Hearty, tasty and simple to prepare. Even better the second day!”
