Stone IPA Marinated Chicken
Since I have gone off to college on my own away from my parents who cook delicious food I have learned I LOVE cooking. Last week my fiance, my roomie and I decided to barbeque. I wanted to try something new so I decided to marinade the chicken in a concoction I pulled out of my head. (Who knows maybe I saw it on the Food Network) But I thought I'd share because it came out delicious!
1) 22oz bottle of Stone's IPA 2) 3 Anaheim Chilies (1 red, 2 green) 3) 2 lemons freshly squeezed 3) 2 limes freshly squeezed 4) 2 mandarin oranges peeled and crushed 5) Round slices of lemon and lime 6) Onion powder 7) Garlic powder 8) Coarsely ground pepper 9) Dried parsley flakes 10) Dried basil I marinated chicken leg/thigh pieces in a large mixing bowl for about 4 hours and then cooked them on a barbeque. As we barbequed I kept brushing the chicken with the marinade. After the chicken was fully cooked I brushed it with a glaze I made. For the glaze: in a small sauce pan I simmered a mix of diced Anaheim chilis, mandarin oranges, lemons, limes, and about ¼ cup of sugar.

When cooking with beer, I have found that big, powerful beers (and Stone IPA definately qualifys) sometimes make too strong on an impression on the overall taste, so I'll usually use something weak like Bud. That being said, with all the other ingredients (especially all the citrus) I think this may be an exception to my rule. All that citric acid probably tames the bitterness of that wicked IPA and makes for a good balance.

True, you couldnt really taste the bitterness of the beer, but there was a definite taste that was not the citrus. But for other cooking for example I have made a "white wine sauce" using a light beer like a Hef or a blonde, and that turned out amazing but would have been ruined with anything stronger.
