Old Forester3 oz. colaIce With recipes this complicated, they really should have given instructions but I think they work best if served in a glass.They remind me a bit of these recipes from the Food Network: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/rachael-ray/late-night-bacon-recipe/index.htmlhttp://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/english-peas-recipe/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepcycle Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I couldn't help but respond sarcastically back to them. I don't know if its "no-reply", but it went through. I really do hope someone at OF has these in a safe place in case the current holder passes. Hate to lose these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorvallisCracker Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Ah, but Josh, the key is that they're made with Old Forester. That's what makes them special. :slappin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickert Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 They remind me a bit of these recipes from the Food Network: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/rachael-ray/late-night-bacon-recipe/index.htmlhttp://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/english-peas-recipe/index.htmlThese are awesome. They remind me of a cookbook my uncle gave me from when me worked on a military base. All of the recipes were submitted by service-persons and most were really good. However, tucked in the middle was a recipe on how to prepare an MRE. Something to the effect of "Find heater and entre package. Put entre into heating unit. Add water to fill line. While food is heating, find the M&Ms and eat them. When food is warm, open and eat. Make pyro-technics with non-dairly creamer and save mini tabasco bottle as stocking stuffer."
