Beer It Forward

[finsfan]

I'm thoroughly creeped out at the moment. Not only did Duffman know my shirt size, but he also figured out my alias. Finnegan McRyan. Stalker alert!

Dude, you rocked this BIF! The shirt is awesome and the food is killer. Huge fan of popcorn and jerky, and now wes is gonna be pissed that i have bacon jam!! :rockin:

Ive also always wanted to try this allagash. How long have you been stalking me?!

Home brews ready to drink? I cant thank you enough for this box man, very excited! This made up for the past two schitty days of being sick. Philly traders are kicking the rest of our asses in this BIF thing. Cheers man!

@BeerMeDuffMan - did you dip into that bacon jam before packing it up? It looks like a bit of a low fill...

Nice box.

Epic. Your shirt size I stole from the BMAW thread, the Allagash was from the Alchy thread. The rest was just luck lol.
The home brews are both ready and on untapped under the homebrew name The Monday's. The wheat is my King Kamehameha Imperial Pineapple wheat (Id let it settle for a few days before drinking). The quad is my "It's a Trapp!" and two years old and drinking well enough. All three were included thinking you may or may not want to drink them right away since you are limiting yourself.

Amazing gift, that shirt is swanky as funk. Surprised you found it in Womens (M) though. That jam is definitely pre-used :cross:

I picked up three jars, one didn't last though the festival, one I kept that is almost gone and one for the BIF. There is a bit of fat separation in the jar, but you can easily skim it off or heat the jar in some hot water for a bit to get it back into the good stuff, if you felt so inclined.

I had a BBQ bowl at Keystone last month that was pulled pork over mac. Ive had dreams of that ever since. It certainly helped that the pork was unbelievably good. Such a good combo though. Have you guys ever tried this recipe? The gouda plus smoker puts it over the top. Ive made it a few times and always received praise for it.

http://recipes.masterbuilt.com/four-cheese-smoked-mac-n-cheese/

Every year my family does a grill off/smoke off along with a secret ingredient that everyone competing has to include. This was my entry last year with a secret ingredient of cherries.

I smoked a pork shoulder and smoke the Mac and cheese. Topped the Mac cheese with shredded pork and drizzled a homemade BBQ Sauce (with cherries in it) over the top. For good measure, I served with a cherry/cranberry homemade wine.

I took 2nd. Bastards.

So I raced home from a dentist appt to jump on a conference call. Then went to walk the dog and found two boxes on the porch with curious labels:

Thanks @PatrickGoss - at first I thought you were angling for a job with Brew Dog but then I realized there was a period between the 4 & 8.

Thanks @BGBC - can't wait to tear into these.

Wow. Generous gifts from everyone. Nicely done.

O the allagash went straight to the fridge with the homebrews haha. And I did notice the hockey puck of fat on the top of the bacon jam, which tastes absolutely amazing btw! I figured I could heat it up and mix it back in. Thoughts on that?

What a couple of pranksters, great names they gave you! Word of advice on the Skull ole: drink with a friend or three. Its a fantastic sour, but the acidity will knock you out for the evening if you try to drink yourself haha.

I heated it back up, mixed it back together and used the spread with some lettuce and pepper jack with some mayo. That was damn good.

Is that what knocked you out on Sunday?

 

[Hello]

Sounds like you guys need to get out more. Come visit for the Buffalo Wing Festival this year, I'll DD so I can roll you to a safe spot to go into your food coma.

NEVER agree to be the DD.

Root beer.

 

[finsfan]

HAha no. I blame that on 10 hours of drinking BMC and rum shots outside followed by half a bottle of coconut rum. Coconut rum apparently tastes really good when you're toasted. :cross:

 

[BGBC]

Thanks @BGBC - can't wait to tear into these.

Cool, glad they made it. They're all drinkable now, but of the 4, the gose could probably use more time.

Oh, and for those following the conversation earlier. There is no doubt that FedEx sends notifications based upon name, not address.

As does UPS. I wasnt notified about the one today and only the name was changed. BTW, drink that sour blackberry cider from BGBC soon. That cider is ridiculous!

Root beer.

I was just pretending to be nice. My wife will always DD if I leave her money to go shopping while I'm hungover the following day. Y'ever get drunk... on wiiiiings?

Coming up with fake names for people is way more fun then you think lol. I need to find the paper I was writing on coming up with fake names. The runner up was Ryan Drapper.

O yeah, the popcorn is gone haha. I also had to fire up the grill since it was 75° out yesterday and I had bacon jam I needed to use. I cooked up some burgers and split mine in half. One half got Whataburger's spicy ketchup that DC sent me, and the other half got the good stuff. Needless to say, the beer bacon jam half was way better haha that stuff is like crack! The girlfriend asked me last night what the heck that was in the fridge and I had to explain it was man jam. This jam doesnt go on toast or muffins. Its for meat! :rockin:
