Best Answer

A sherry could be used, although sherries are usually drier than ports, but equal in alcohol content, so you might want to add a bit of sugar to make up the difference. Otherwise you could use any heavy-bodied wine, but might need to add a bit of cognac or brandy (both are distilled wines) to boost the alcohol content, since both sherry and port are fortified (high in alcohol).

Cooking substitute for port?

Port is a Spanish /Portuguese wine That is much sweeter than most other red wines. For this reason Port can enpart a "sweetness" to a dish that a red table wine cannot. Port "reductions" are found in a lot of dessert applications... I would say an adequate substitute for port used for cooking would be adding sugar to any dark red table wine (cabernet savignon, shiraz, chianti, merlot, etc.)... 1 cup Port = 1 cup red table wine(+2 Tbsp sugar)...
