mosugoji64 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 I've found that pumpkin pie and rye whiskey make a delicious pair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redslayer Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 A fire roasted marshmallow. Seems that bourbon just melts thats warm carmelized sugar away! Unfortunately, living in Florida I only get a few months of the year to enjoy this pairing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskey buyer Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Popcorn, and not the microwave kind, the old fashioned throw the kernels in the hot oil, listen to it pop, add some salt, and sit down with a big bowl and a rock glass. The rock glass is for the popcorn, and the big bowl for the bourbon:) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We, gentlemen of a certain age, must get together and make a pact to hold fast to our beliefs; that ALL Americans deserve MORE BOURBON IN LARGER CONTAINERS! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryT Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I go with pretzel rods/sticks, or sometimes microwave (YES - that kind!) popcorn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcbt Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I'll echo the cheese-and-crackers. Usually strong cheddar and the weird-sounding chicken-in-a-biscuit cracker (that sounds made up, but it's not!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil T Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 For years, my favorite snack with either beer or bourbon has been peanut m&m's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelissaM Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 I tend to do more dessert type stuff, shortbread, chocolate, tiramisu...My favorite bday treat is a nice glass of bourbon with either chocolate mousse or these super hipster, hand crafted, humanely raised ring dings that come from Brooklyn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Or, Hostess Ding Dongs. Which of course, were better for some reason when wrapped in foil rather than the white BOPP that they are now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richnimrod Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Ahhh, OK. I remember them as the Hostess brand; 'Ding Dongs'. Never seen (that I'm aware of) the Drake brand. It's been so long since I lookt at any of this sort of baked treat, that I assume I'm totally out of the loop. Thanx for that illumination, Joe Terp, and Smokinjoe. I have a dim memory... Did 'Ding Dongs' morph into 'King Dons' at some point? I seem to remember that there was some issue with trademarked brand names or something. Sorry for the thread drift..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Yeah, there was a trademark infringement issue somewhere along the way, and Ding Dongs went to King Dons. Then back again. King Dons now are in Canada , I believe. I think all 3 are owned by same company, now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midwest101 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I'm going to jump on the chocolate chip cookie band wagon. Not something I usually have at hand but my girl made some fresh tonight and they compliment my Russel Reserve SiB quite well. Beyond that, when I drink bourbon neat, I typically don't snack on much else. Meals are usually eaten with water. Bourbon for dessert. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrt Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Chips, nachos, with or without cheese, if I am kind of hungry as well. Orherwise, dark chocolate...or nothing By the way, I enjoyed reading all those tasty ideas here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurgalunas Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Various nuts work, but I prefer the richer ones. Not peanuts as much as almonds, walnuts, pecans (candied are great), cashews. Chocolate, in a variety of forms, is good. Baked goods, especially ones heavy on fall spices and brown sugar/molasses, are great. Ginger cookies, zucchini bread, pumpkin pie, etc. One of the grocery stores has a sweet snack mix with honeyed cashews, several types of baked sticks, butterscotch chips. This is probably my favorite... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ondarocks Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Crunchy peanut butter made from 100% peanuts, the kind you stir to mix and refrigerate. Brings out the oakiness in bourbon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
