The toaster thing is a poor attempt at trolling, right?

Following up on this, it'll be about 20 guys in a bachelor party, the vast majority (say at least 15) aren't really bourbon drinkers, and are just there to have fun. We're going to do one day of a private tour bus, and they said for a 9 hour day they usually recommend three stops, although they'll do it however you want to
With those parameters, what would you do? It seems like some of this will be wasted on a bunch of guys who aren't bourbon snobs
Is it your bachelor party? Pick your two or three favorite bourbons and go there. No one else will complain.
For mine we rented a bus and did Four Roses and Buffalo Trace. Don’t overthink it. Pick your preferred bourbon and go there. -

Crawfish Gravy is based on this recipe:
QuoteIngredients
1
pound thick-sliced smoked bacon, cut into 1/2' pieces6
tablespoons all-purpose flour1
/2 cup each finely chopped onion, green bell pepper, and celery1
/4 cup seeded, finely chopped jalapeños3
tablespoons finely chopped garlic2
teaspoons Cajun Spice Mix (click for recipe)3
cups low-salt chicken broth of shrimp stock1
pound peeled crawfish tails or coarsely chopped peeled shrimpKosher salt, freshly ground pepperCayenne pepper (optional)1
/2 cup chopped scallionsPreparation

Step 1
Cook bacon in a cast-iron or other large heavy skillet over medium heat until fat is rendered and bacon is crisp, about 12 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain. Pour drippings into a small bowl; return 6 tablespoons to the same skillet set over medium heat. Whisk flour into drippings, reduce to heat to low, and cook, whisking constantly, until roux is one shade darker than peanut butter, about 10 minutes.
Step 2
Add onion, pepper, celery, jalapeños, and garlic; cook, stirring frequently, until onion is soft, about 20 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high; stir in reserved baconm spice mix, then broth. Simmer, stirring often, until thickened and flavors meld, 20–25 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in crawfish. Simmer until the tails curl, about 3 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and cayenne, if desired. Garnish with scallions.
I generally follow the process in this recipe, but I change the ingredient amounts. I usually double the bacon, onion/bell pepper/celery/jalapeno, and crawfish amounts. Garlic is at least doubled as well. Roux is made with all of the bacon grease, I don't drain and then re-add six tablespoons like the recipe says. I've also spent years making rouxs, so playing that by ear doesn't bother me. Final result ends up being a much more flavorful/thicker version of the original.
Charred Okra Salad:
https://www.latimes.com/recipe/charred-okra-and-corn-salad-with-spicy-sausage-vinaigrette
Quote1 large heirloom or vine-ripe tomatoesKosher salt and freshly ground black pepper3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar1 almond-size garlic clove, minced8 ounces spicy Italian sausage, casings removed3 tablespoons everyday olive oil8 Jimmy Nardello peppers (4 ounces), stemmed and torn into strips lengthwise (see Ingredient Note, below, for substitutions)8 ounces okra, split lengthwise1 ½ cups fresh corn kernels (from 3 to 4 ears)Granulated sugar (optional)Flaky sea saltTorn basil or flat-leaf parsley leaves, to garnish1Cut the tomato into half-inch-thick wedges or slices and arrange them evenly over the bottom of a large serving platter. Season the tomatoes with salt and black pepper. In a small bowl, stir together the vinegar and garlic.
2Crumble the sausage into a large nonstick skillet, then place over medium heat. Once the sausage starts sizzling, continue cooking, stirring occasionally and breaking up the crumbles as you go, until deeply golden brown and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Using a wooden spoon or heat-proof silicone spatula, scrape the sausage and its fat into a large bowl.
3Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the peppers, season with salt and black pepper and cook, in a single layer and undisturbed, until lightly blistered on one side, about 2 minutes. Toss the peppers and cook, undisturbed, until blistered all over and just tender, 1 to 2 minutes more. Scrape the peppers into the bowl and leave them on top of the sausage.
4Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the okra to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper and cook, using tongs to arrange each piece cut side down as much as you can (this helps rid them of their slimy texture, but don’t sweat over it), until charred on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Toss the okra in the skillet and continue cooking until lightly charred on the other side and just tender, 3 to 4 minutes more. Scrape the okra into the bowl and leave it on top of the peppers.
5Return the skillet to medium heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the corn, season with salt and black pepper, and sugar if using, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Scrape the corn into the bowl, add the vinegar-garlic mixture and toss everything together while warm.
6Immediately spoon the salad over the tomatoes in an even layer. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and more black pepper. Garnish with basil just before serving.
I tend to follow this one pretty closely. I probably use a little more okra than it calls for. First time I made it I misread the recipe and thought it said to serve the salad cold. We ended up liking it that way, so that's how I serve it. Plus it makes it an easy side dish to make a day early.

I’m 45.5yo. Do I really need a camera up my butt,
Yes. -
While not as hot as some of the hottest, I just really like the flavor of the yellow scotch bonnet hot sauces.
The little bottle is one of several I re-ordered from some small vendor on Pike Street market in Seattle. I go through them like crazy, but for some reason, they don’t have a larger bottle, so I buy several of the small ones at a time.
I splash them on all burgers and chicken sandwiches - and on most egg dishes I have for breakfast.
Always have a bottle of scotch bonnet hot sauce in the fridge. Goes great on scrambled eggs.-

I need to take my submariner in for servicing and cleaning in Houston. Anybody got any recommendations? I purchased from Valobra’s in Houston about 10 years ago but not sure if the guy who services them is still there.
At least for my wife's watch, Valobra sent it out elsewhere for servicing. I don't know where it was sent (more precisely, I don't know where it currently is since we haven't picked it up yet).

I like being able to sip on it for an hour
When are you going to admit to yourself that you don’t like Old Fashioneds? -
That right there is the best dish in New Orleans. I use their recipe from the cookbook. Though I’ll never get using whole shrimp; it’s a fucking pain to eat having to peel them with all that sauce on them. I peel them and put the shells in the pan for the sauce then strain the sauce.
Unexpectedly there’s a new contender for worst post on the thread.-
