#1 ingredient...Alcohol

[CrappieAttitude]

I am just curious as to what anyones favorite dishes are out there that involve alcohol as a main ingredient. I am not talking about cooking with a beer in your hand, I'm talking about marinades, stews, batters, that you have found to be your all time favorites.

I personally feel that Jack Daniels is one of the best ingredients that one can put in with a crock pot recipe.

Any other favorites?

Look to the thread on how you like your duck. Captain morgans, orange juice concentrate and you get a great marinade for duck, chicken, pork. Add you favorite spices to the mixture and baste it on like bbq sauce. Doesn't make a bad marinade either. If you want to get fancy then use Grand Marnier rather then cpt mgs.

I have an awesome sauce/glaze I make for pork tenderloin. I sautee some minced shallot and oregano in olive oil in a stainless skillet until the shallot is translucent. Take it off of the heat and set aside. Puree a small can of crushed pineapple with some liquid smoke and worchestershire sauce and add to the skillet. Heat it just to the point where it carmelizes and throw some brandy into it to deglaze it and then tip it slightly to the burner to flame it. Once it flames, hold it away from the stove and let it burn itself out. Simply wonderful on slow smoked pork loin!!! (Hint-if you have never flamed an alcohol before, have a reliable helper with you and an extinguisher handy until you get the hang of it )
