Beer Steamed Clams
There is not a man around who wont stand in front of a grill with beer and live clams.
Ingredients:
24 live Clams
2 Tbsp fresh Parsley, chopped
12 oz Beer
chopped Garlic, Butter (1 stick )
Place clams in the bottom of a clam steamer or deep boiling pot. Add beer. Beer level should be only 1-2 inches from kettle/pot bottom. Cover and bring beer to a boil and steam until top clams barely open (about 3-5 minutes). Do not over cook, as clams will become tough and rubbery. Serve with garlic butter, prepared by sautéing chopped garlic and fresh parsley with a melted stick of butter.
