Whiskey Flavored Pigs

PORK RIBS AND BACON!

bacon is good anytime in in any manner.

pork ribs basted in Kraft hickory smoke BBQ sauce that is heavily laced with KCSB, brown sugar, and habanero powder is one of my favorite all time meals. If it doesnt burn while eating it AND the next day, it wasnt hot enough!

Tempelton has always the poster child of Bullshit and now it it clearly the poster child of Swine Shit.

Spent mash has been sold to farms as livestock feed for generations - it's nothing new. This is more Templeton bullshit.

And not just any old poo, special, unique poo. In fact pig poo in Iowa was unnoticed until we came along.

[squire]

Yes, but because it's Templeton it's unique excrement, elevated poo without compare.

Templeton: elevating excrement to sacrament. Or something.

Plus it makes sense, when the farms are close to the distillery. Distillery gets rid of waste, farmers get feed.

This is just weapons-grade asinine, however, since presumably they are trucking it from Indiana to Iowa.

[squire]

Or anywhere else, nothing on the site says the hogs are being fed exclusively on spent mash, could be as little as 10% of their intake.

Here's a tidbit from 30 or so years back. Moore Co., TN, a dry county at the time but home to the Jack Daniels distillery, had more feed lot livestock per acre than any comparable County in the Country. Cheap spent mash was the feed of choice. The local Baptists might not buy the whisky but they sure bought the mash.

I don't know why it took me this long to realize that "pork project" sounds like a Congressional boondoggle.

[squire]

Yes it does, doesn't it.

Nothing that comes out of Templeton surprises me. These guys are the biggest conmen since the sting.

[sutton]

Wonder where Templeton buys the used mash.

The same place they get the pigs ... Lawrenceburg, Indiana

[sutton]

Given that they have been raising hogs/cattle etc on spent mash for generations, don't we already know what this tastes like?
