Saltgrass Steakhouse Shiner Bock Beer Bread
===============================================
Ingredients:

1-1/2 -1-3/4 Cup Shiner Bock Beer (flat)
2-1/2 Cup Whole Wheat Flour
2 teaspoon Dry Active Yeast
1/4 Cup Warm Water ( not hot )
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/4 Cup Honey
1/4 Cup Vegetable Oil
1-1/2 Cup All Purpose Flour
.
Preparation:

Dissolve in a large mixing bowl yeast with warm water, add honey and stir.
Mix in wheat flour, salt, and all purpose flour in bowl. Stir in oil and
slowly add flat beer. Mix all ingredients together. Place dough on a floured
service and knead for at least 10 - 15 minutes. The dough may need a little
more flour added to it if while kneading its sticking to your hands. The
finished dough will feel smooth and spongy and will not stick to your hands.
Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with plastic until it doubles
in size. Do not place dough in a draft or a over heated area. The dough
should be let to rise at room temperature. When dough has doubled, punch in
the middle and let rest for 5 minutes. Divide into four equal parts and
shape into round loaves. Place loaves on a lightly oiled cookie sheet. Score
twice on top of each loaf with a knife two inches apart and about 2-1/2
inches long. Cover loosely with plastic wrap until the loaves have double in
size. Place in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.
