My favorite hotel in Mexico introduced me to this salsa/sauce. I had it so often with everything they gave me the recipe. Enjoy this with chips, nachos, quesadillas, tacos, chicken, or anything. Use it within the first couple of days though, the beer should still be fresh. If not, freeze it and take it out for parties.
Try to get the best tomatoes possible, even though it is hard this time of year.
Roast them till they are wilted but still juicy.
I use two jalapenos, but feel free to go harder.
Use a dark beer like Negra Modelo, you want that richness in the sauce.
Here, it is paired with quesadillas. Also great on fish tacos.
