What if you burn methane and methyl alcohol which gives off more heat?

Methane gives off more heat. Burning something is an oxidation reaction. Energy is released by forming more and more bonds between carbon and oxygen. Since methyl alcohol already has a C-O bond, it is already more oxidized than methane, so burning methyl alcohol releases less energy (heat) than burning methane (mole for mole).
