bacon..

[fizzydrink]

im not 100% sure with latest craze of everything having something to do with bacon, but anyway, i read on a forum at work, someone infused bacon into a whiskey??
apparently tasted ok, with the smokyness of the bacon adding quite a nice flavour..

thoughts? (apart from "shit")

[fizzydrink]

[googe]

This might not be a silly idea....

What if you put the eggs in as well?

Could call it "up & go" breakfast supplement :happy-partydance:

There is a restaurant in America that has infused lots of food flavours in to vodka, they are famous for cheeseburger vodka.

Also do a bacon and maple vodka that is meant to be pretty nice.

I would use Barossa Valley double smoked organic bacon for extra flavour.

my sisters firends made bacon vodka.

luckily one of the works in a labratory so he had access to very very high grade micron filters. they soaked the bacon in the vodka for days, then ran it through the micron filters. did 4 or so times, with new filters each time. then just to be on the safe side they froze it, and there was still a layer of fat that they scrapped off :puke-huge: :puke-huge: :puke-huge: . then ran it through micron filters a few more times.
the whole process took a very long time

the end product was described to me as "tasted like bacon with a bad vodka after taste"

I'm with you crow, although it would be a justification for having vodka with your eggs in the morning.

[Hill]

If you wanted smoked or bacon flavors I wonder about trying smoked malt or bacon in a gin basket.

[blond.chap]

You could fry your egg there too...

Depends how volatile the bacon flavour compounds are, but that could be a good idea to prevent the fat getting through (provided the bacon is in the upward vapour path).

[Hill]

Personally id be trying smoked malt first, Iv had some beers that have a great ham/bacon flavor which is all from smoked malt.

[blond.chap]

That's an interesting idea actually Hill, I've been keen on getting an Islay style scotch going and considering the stupid cost of peated malt that may be a cheap way to get a peated flavour.

It'll take a bit of mucking around with to work out quantities, but I like your thinking.

[Hill]

Not sure if if would work on a scotch, I was thinking it would work more in a vodka subtly.

What are you paying for your peated malt blond?
