Beer alternative for gluten free corned beef

[Anonymous]

We’ve always made corned beef with beer added while it cooks. A guest this year has celiac and can’t have any gluten. I’m thinking about adding a splash of wine instead of the beer. Anyone have experience or advice?

I'd use a hard cider

We always boil ours in water with spices. No alcohol needed

We use water or beef broth plus the spices that come with.

Whatever you do, do not use Omission Beer, which advertises itself as Gluten-Free, but uses low-protein barley, which contains gluten. They have acknowledged it is "low enough" gluten for them to legally call it "gluten-free."

I know a couple people with celiac who have ended up in the hospital after trying it.

Yikes! Thank you for the warning. I always thought that the beer helped soften the meat but really don’t understand the science of it. A cider is a good idea, thanks!

Same here. But not tomorrow for us. It's Lent. We'll be St Patty'in on Sunday instead.

^^ Meant to add a thank you to you for trying to accomodate your GF guest. A host(ess) who considers all of the ingredients of their dishes is greatly appreciated.

I always cook with kombucha in place of beer or wine.
