    Lol, yes that joke clearly went way too far over my head nikki!! Not a big ale drinker so I don't have a clue what's good or bad
    I think it makes a lot of sense to buy a bit more than required, I'm sure OH will be delighted to quality control the product!!

    Thanks for all the suggestions - I always learn something new on here - cheers guys x

    I drink ale so my suggestions are what I like to drink & cook with.You can also get them at Tescos.

    in answer to the second part of your q - I always use less liquid in the sc as it does evaporate.

    I'm making this at the weekend - really looking forward to it

    Well, I have been pleasantly surprised, I used an ale that used to be called tangled something or other - it smelled fab and I'm glad I got a bit more than I needed, it tasted lovely too - I may be an ale convert after all!!
    Would like it a bit colder tho, but OH says that's sacrilege :)

    My pork is marinating nicely in the lovely ale ready to be slow roasted tomorrow :j

    A good alternative is cider, and it is used in other pulled pork recipes too.

    Would be great to hear how you get on Annie, I split my joint in 2 so could try a recipe with cider for the other half next week!
