Just reverse sear brother. Simple rub. 225-250 degree fire with some smoke to an internal temp of 120. Bring it inside and roast it really hot in the oven with convection to set the crust. Rest and slice

Just do the Thomas set with the plastic tracks. Your three your old will likely drop stuff and the real deal trains are fragile. We bought the polar Express set (O scale, metal, Lionel) a for our kid early on and sure enough one of his friends switching signs and we have had to fix it a couple times since. They aren't going to have any fun if you have to tell them dont touch this, don't do that.

Unicorn magnum has been great for me. Spending $50 on a pepper mill is painful but it works like a dream

If it's spiral sliced meat church did a pretty good video recently. I bought a ham when it was dirt cheap with plans of using it for sandwich meat

My moccamaster already does what I need it to. Its bulletproof

I don't have any idea how to be good. I played the shite out of it on the Sega channel back in the day. Load up on cannons, broadside and board everyone, yahr I surrender. Occasionally I would follow a treasure map. Lots of fun

tour with multiple stops. I pulled up the info and we're doing Rabbit Hole, Buffalo Trace, and Bulleit.

That's a good way to do it. I don't know about rabbit hole, but BT will definitely have either ER, WSR, Blanton's, or EHT small batch unless you get there after 1 or 2pm. Bulleit won't have anything special. It's pretty modern and a nice juxtaposition to old school stuff like BT.

If you decide you want to go do some more tours or chase allocated bottles, heaven Hill in bardstown is about an hour away, but you'll need to be in line by 830 to get a bottle if it's something good like whh17, parkers heritage, EC18.

Four roses usually has several of their recipes in the 9-10 year range barrel strength. Their coxs creek location is close to bardstown. Their main gift shop is in Lawrenceburg which is close to Woodford reserve and wild turkey. Wild turkey is a very pretty overlook of the KY river. Woodford is probably the prettiest distillery I've been to. Neither of them are likely to have anything allocated.

If you think you will have had enough bourbon touring after your guided tour, you could just pop into michters and hang out at the bar around noon and see if they put something out. If you want more tours I would do makers, Woodford, and maybe heaven Hill. If you want to chase bottles do heaven Hill early with a swing through of four roses coxs creek and finished with the michters hang out strategy.

So a single guided tour of rabbit hole, or a guided tour with multiple stops via a bus? Do you have transportation to check out anything in bardstown, makers mark, buffalo trace etc? Do you have any interest in trying to get an allocated bottle? No judgement either way, just want to know so we can make recommendations that suit your interests.

TA lmk when picks become available. I'm a sucker for a good barrel pick. I've done a bulleit pick (decent experience, decent pick) and one at WR with Chris Morris of all people (decent pick, amazing experience to have the godfather pick a blend with you). puffulufogous@gmail.com

Anyone score on the total wine pappy and btac selections?

I understand and agree with y'all about the bizarre choices made to wrap this thing up, but my biggest gripe is this was billed as cosmic horror. They leaned into it hard all season and then pulled the rug for a girl power statement. I mean how many times did we see the spiral? People got it tattooed on their bodies and were borderline obsessed with it. The only mention it gets is a shoe horned flat circle callback? Based on how much they played it up you would think clark was totally off the deep end and he's totally normal.

I came here for cosmic horror and you served us a really flimsy murder she wrote ending.
