First step:quality control
Step two; mix
Top tip; when measuring the bourbon hold the measuring spoon over a glass so any “accidental” spills are contained.
Step three; bake.
While the pie bakes continue quality control. Just to be safe I recommend a second glass to insure the quality stays the same.
And voila:

I’ve also made it with bacon added in as well.

It’s always a good day when you can add bourbon to the shopping list and not have it questioned.

My aunt is doing the main meal. She told me not to bring anything, but I feel bad bringing nothing when she’s been cooking all day.
I figure no one gets upset when an unexpected pie shows up.

bah gawd someone who cooks like me.
Quality control is the best part of cooking; Bulleit’s a great way to go. My new favourite recently has been Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye - really good stuff.
On the bourbon end, when we asked a barman in Kyoto what he enjoyed he mentioned Booker’s bourbon, which was good and fucking strong at 65% alcohol. Too expensive in Canada, though.

When I measure bourbon, this is a teaspoon’s worth
and here is a tablespoon’s worth

We’re hosting 12 tomorrow. Deep frying a bird and a glazed ham. We have the guests bring sides.

Mmm Bulleit..

I’ve found that Bulleit Bourbon for the price is hard to beat. I think it’s better than Maker’s Mark while still being less expensive. I keep meaning to try their rye as well but just tend to stick with Rittenhouse.
I generally restrict my more expensive drinking to scotch.

I had about 3 teaspoons by that measure.
For the pie I stuck with a fancy dancy measuring spoon since your method might make it unlikely the pie would set properly.

My grandmother will make a couple sides, and my cousin will be there early to help. I’m not sure if my great-aunt will make it, but if so there will be 10.
She always tells everyone else nothing which naturally means we all come up with something.

Bulleit’s great, but it’s not the cheap option around here - a 750ml bottle (26 oz.) is still $40, which is about $5 more than the Crown Royal rye that I drink (and keep in mind, this is not the regular Crown in the purple box that isn’t tasty). A bottle of Maker’s Mark is $45 here, so not a big difference between it and Bulleit.

Yeah, I bought a 1L here for $24. They had the same deal on both the bourbon and rye. The place I bought it was running a deal where the 1L was only $2 more than the 750ml.
Makers Mark would’ve been $32 for 750ml.
