  1. Not really. Just give it a try, see how you like it and judge what you’d be willing to pay for it in the future. Lots of good options in that price range.
  2. I liked the bottle I finished and bought another. That said, I wouldn’t pay more than retail now that I’ve had it. But I say that about most. It’s nice to try these things to see what all the fuss is about but at the end of the day, I find they aren’t life changing. YMMV.
  3. I’ve read where Facebook is cracking down on any alcohol sales which has grown to be a big part of the grey or secondary market. Good. Screw the flippers. Find a real job.
  4. After having multiple single barrels and store picks over the last few years, I’d have to agree with you to a point. Some great, some meh and few stinkers. For the average bourbon drinker I think this is sound advice. No need to play single barrel roulette when you can get consistent quality from what’s on the shelf. However it is fun to try SBs and come up with the occasional gem. I’m finding better results with some distillers than others and of course it’s always good to try before you buy if the retailer allows it. Getting to taste can take out a lot of the guess work (although COViD has recently put a damper on this practice). Anyway, always appreciate your take on things Bozo.

    Kayce lassoes the russler in the cab of his pick up? Bit of stretch. I found my disbelief momentarily unsuspended.
  6. I experienced the same thing with an EC Specs store pick. I tasted against two other EC store picks and the one from Specs was a burner compared to the other two.

    Yes but now, now he realizes “it’s all for nothing” so he’s got to be tempted right? That is if Jamie ever gets around to telling him about the offer.
  8. Nothing fancy. 225 for four+ hours. Brushed them with some vinegar/brown sugar about half way to keep them from drying out and then some bbq sauce w 30 min to go. First time for a whole chicken. Came out good. Nice Smokey flavor and meat was moist and tender.
  9. Smoked Chicken, Spareribs and Sausage

  11. That looks outstanding. Hope you had a good red with it.
  12. K-Paul’s closed permanently??? Damn Damn Damn Damn!!!!! Ive got so many good memories in that place. Tell stories about my meals there all the time.
  13. I’ve had a couple of these. One meh and one very good. Really high proof stuff that can be hit or miss. Pre-COViD TW would let you taste before you buy.

    One would think Yellowstone Bourbon at the very least but that’s probably just too easy.

    Weatherford Hill Bourbon Whiskey? He holds it up for the camera for Christ’s sake. That some egregious product placement. Screw top though. Can it be any good?
  20. Total screw up on my part. Always got those two confused. I’ll have to go back and listen to some Charlie. RIP
  21. I need a better knife. No doubt about it. Been looking at some Grantons but haven’t decided which one.
  22. Can’t You See? One of my all time favs and still relevant today. Classic Southern Rock with some Blues and Progressive Country ( a flute? Wtf does that?) thrown in for good measure. Listened to it the night before I got the news.
  23. My WSM Holy Trinity cook for the 4th.
  24. Thanks. I’ve never had a problem with it. Maybe it’s well designed or I’m just used to it. Feel like a double hinge might hurt the aesthetics and not provide a material improvement in functionality.
