These delicious clams have a wonderful flavor, thanks to being steamed in beer.

Ingredients

2 dozen little neck clams
1 can or bottle beer
1 tbsp butter

Steps

1

Preheat your pan over a grill, brassiere or stove over medium heat. If you are using a grill or brassiere, be sure to use cast iron.
2

Pour in beer (all of it) and add clams in a single layer. (It will likely take several batches to do all the clams - usually three batches for me.) Cover and cook, checking regularly, until the shells open wide.
3

Once the clams are all cook, in a small pan, melt butter and add two spoonful of the broth from the clam pan. Whisk together and then pour over the clams just before serving.
