Bourbon/Whiskey and BBQ
Trying to plan my dh’s 40th birthday party. He knows I’m planning something but the theme is a surprise. I was trying to find a whiskey tasting party but they don’t seem to exist.
Any recommendations for food or any partiular whiskeys or bourbons? I’m going to cater some and cook others. My friend has a smoker so I’m going to
Going to get her to smoke a couple of meats. Doing a pulled pork.
He likes makers mark, Evan Williams, 21st amendment and Johnny walker gold label.

Re: Bourbon/Whiskey and BBQ
Here you go. This is copied from:
"Best Irish Whiskey Tour in Delray Beach
Finnegan’s Irish Whiskey Tour"
We did it and it was fun. They give you a little tasting book - with these whiskeys and descriptions and then they gave us like a "passport" where you get a stamp when you tried it and you can rate it as you compared to others. You might want to do something like that.
Here is the Delray Beach Florida, Irish Pub, Whiskey Tour.
Take our whiskey tour and try 20 select whiskeys from all over Ireland. From staples like Bushmills, Jameson and Tullamore Dew to the more rare selections, Middleton Very Rare and Jameson Ltd Reserve. Finish the tour and receive a crystal monogrammed whiskey glass.
Our vast Irish Whiskey selection got us on the short list of nominees for 2017 Irish Pubs Global Award for “Best Irish Whiskey Experience”. Come in and take Tim Finnegan’s Irish Whiskey Tour! Our friendly bartenders are happy to be your guide!
