Beer as ingredient

[jjmrascal]

Has anyone ever used beer as an ingredient in SMOKED sausage? I have been wondering if it would counteract any curing action, raise or lower pH or something like that. I am thinking of trying it the next time.

I've been adding beer to my salami and snack stix the last few batches with great results. I use a high quality beer in place of the water usually called for in the recipes. Try it, you'll like it!

That was the logic I thought about, just wanted a confirmation. Thanks for the help!
