ND Mike Don’t know about that choice… I know and have knowledge of what fish do in that stuff

ND Mike It’s always a plus when a change in plans works out and you hear “I told you so!!!”.

Jonathon s request, please list your drink of choice. I’ll start, I love bourbon and Coors Light or a good old Coors yellow belly. My bourbons of choice are Elijah Craig, Bulliet, Maker’s Mark, Jim Beam Black and W.L. Wellers. Now if I just want to pound down some drinks a good 7&7 can’t be beat.

Tex_77 after a 5am - 5pm shift and a long walk to the car (downtown Walla Walla was shut down due to a bike race today) the only thing that mattered was making a really big Singapore Sling.
Joe Hell what’s a Singapore Sling?

Tex_77 Heaven! Just quadruple the ingredients (I had no orange) like I did and that’s all you need to start/end the evening! It’s a lot of things but absolutely delicious.
-
Joe Hell No Orange? Hypocrisy!!! I know, just add more Grand Marnier or Cointreau and viola. It’s a drink that easy to sit down to and just enjoy. Yay for you.
zbigjeff …I also forgot the bitters initially. Lol. So…on my next one (tomorrow for sure) I’m going to combine the soda, bitters, and orange and just add this! I’ve been buying these recently and they are great for both mock and cocktails so long as you like bitters.

Joe Hell I love playing with the pure bottles of bitters. Daughter bought me a sampler pack of I think 6-8 of them. Bitters can make or break a drink and a little goes a long way. I never saw the can you have of Bitters and Soda. I can now go to sleep knowing I learned one new thing today. Albeit extremely important point and don’t forget the bitters again.

zbigjeff homemade bitters is a fun hobby that I’ve dabbled in a bit…even considered that as a business. All you need is booze and stuff!
Joe Hell Dabbling in my world is very much a positive. One of my dabbles awhile ago was trying to grind and stuff with the same machine. Finally (after only one try), I came to my senses and purchased a stuffer. Another dabble about 3 decades ago was finding a different bourbon that nobody else in the family had tried for each holiday. Now, I have an arsenal for different types of tastings. So, you keep “dabbling” with the bitters and I will purchase them to see how good you are.

Joe Hell My cousin who I am incredibly close to worked for GE financial when I was younger and they had him travelling all over the world and this was his favorite drink from over seas. He made me some when I was younger and I could easily see why he liked them!

So as I’ve said, I’m still recovering from a bad experience with whiskey when I was 14. Today I picked up a couple of small bottles to expand on my Maker’s Mark endeavor. I grabbed a Bulleit Bourbon and a Elijah Craig Small Batch. I’m not sure if I’m headed in the right direction or not but I’m trying new drinks. Today, while smoking some bacon, I made a Manhattan using my Maker’s Mark. Actually I made several…

Can’t go wrong with any of those choices there. Elijah Craig has actually been my go to for old fashions recently. Goes down nice and smooth, almost too smooth.
Cheers man. -

Cheers man.Thanks Surg! I’m looking forward to cracking both of these and seeing how I handle them. So far, the Maker’s Mark is going down a lot better than the fairly expensive bottle of The Glenlivet I was gifted. Yeah. I know they’re different but I just had a hard time drinking any whiskeys. The only thing harder than a beer that I could drink for about 42 years was Tequila and I’ve drank a lot of tequila… I’m working on refining my taste for (and ability to ingest) liquor. At 56, the things I do while drinking tequila are frowned upon… I think there’s a country song about it… But anyway… I’m sure I’ll post about my experiences with both Elijah Craig and Bulleit.

calldoctoday I cut a belly in half and did it two ways. On the left is wet cured and on the right is dry cured. The overall preference in the house is dry cured for the win. That said, I think I’m going back to my original recipes. I used the EQ method and the wife actually agreed with me (before I said anything, but hey a win is a win, right?) that the flavor wasn’t there like with the original recipes.
The bellies were smoked for “a few” hours on my offset over a combination of two woods. I used oak splits to keep the fire burnin’ (an REO Speedwagon ear worm for you…) with hickory chunks doing the bulk of the work to Keep Pushin’ on… (Notice what I did there?)
At any rate, I Can’t Fight This Feelin’ any longer… it’s Time for me to Fly… I gotta get Back on the Road Again tomorrow. Gonna jump on our REO Speedwagon (actually it’s a Spencer Fire Apparatus) and … Oh never mind. (Take it on the Run)
Even you Team Blue people can probably guess what my playlist was while I was Smokin’ (Was that just a Boston ear worm)
