Timing is important. If you want to gain muscle, be sure to eat a protein heavy meal within an hour of so after a workout with weights or other heavy exercise.
Of course, if you want to put on the weight and you don't care whether it's fat or muscle, eat a big meal late in the evening, before going to bed. Even back in my 20s, when I had a fast metabolism, late-evening eating would put weight on -- like I said, not always to the good.
