Cooking/baking with alcohol - Drunk food

A lot of stews benefit from dark ale, including chili.

I'm going to make a chilli tonight and am just about to pop to Morrisons, I might pick up a dark ale and give this a whirl.

I've been curious about using a peated whisky in a sauce, but I'm not sure I want to use something so expensive on something that may be unpleasant tasting, or at least crowd out other flavours.

Had that beer chilli. It turned out well if I do say so myself.

I mostly cook with white wine or beer when I make roasted chicken. Just cut the chicken, put salt and pepper in there, some olive oil and salt on the oven's plate and put in there for about half a hour. When is half cooked I will mix water, beer or wine and half chicken cube. It leaves a great sauce to eat with your chicken alongside smashed potatoes.
