VIEW STEP BY STEP
Heat beer and half of the finishing butter in the braising pan on HIGH; bring to a boil.
Add mussels; cook, covered, until mussels open and say "Ahh.".
Transfer mussels to serving platter with a slotted spoon. (Throw out any that don't open as they are bad hombrés.).
Return the liquid to a boil. Cook, 3-5 min, until liquid is reduced by one-third.
Add remaining butter to the liquid; stir until the butter melts like the Wicked Witch.
Pour over mussels.
Garnish with parsley.
Get yourself some crusty bread to tear and dip...
EAT IT!
