How to baconify your bourbon.

The Agitator, huh? I'm sure my stomach would be fairly "agitated" if I tried a bacon Bourbon.

What a waste of good bacon.

Doc.

If you must combine bacon fat and bourbon, at least have the decency to do it in a BBQ sauce

As the ol' montra goes "Just because people CAN breed doesn't mean some should"... YUCK

I'm with you, Ray. Matter of fact, its time for a few fingers, hold the strips, right this very moment.

edit: Stranahan's and a Centurion, in case anyone was wondering.

While I am a proponent of pork fat, I will say that it never belongs in a bourbon, good or bad.

I've worked with a bartender mixologist who made smoked bacon bourbon. He infused the bacon flavor by cryovac-ing the bacon and Beam and placing into a water bath outfitted with an immersion circulator. This was then shaken with pea puree, yes, green pea puree.

Mixologists are the hot thing here in Chicago. I have yet to find more than a handful that are not self-absorbed, pretentious blowhards. Yeah, it's cool to make your own infused liquers, but don't act like you have saved the cocktail from the grasp of the grim reaper.

By the way, I'll take my bacon the next morning after I finish my $9 bottle of Beam. Or go to the Twisted Spoke and have Beam on tap with Smut and Eggs in the morning. Yup, porn, bourbon and brunch.

I was good until the peas came into play. Bacon, bourbon and peas all mixed together take the idea from bad to worse. That guy should be castrated so he doesn't breed.

For dessert you can have a Bacon Candy Bar and before bed use your Bacon Floss...

Actually, you get to eat the bacon and just put the fat (flavor) in the bourbon.

Don't you know? Everything is better with bacon! And then there is cheese.

I think I just vomited a little in my mouth...
