Cooking the stuffing in the bird is risky. You may already know that, since it sounds kind you have been doing it that way a long time. However, many don’t understand the risks, chief among them is overcooking the turkey.
It’s strange. I’ll write a pretty tight email, looks concise on my computer screen. Send it, walk away, read the replies on my phone and it looks like the prologue on a food blog recipe.
Well, single digit percentages are easy. If it helps, move your decimal to the right so 9% becomes 90%. You can probably calculate 90% of 3 because you can do 10% and subtract it and get 2.7. Now move your decimal back to the left and you get 9% of 3 which is 0.27. You can do the same with higher percentages once you learn to break them in to 10% pieces.
Love Old Forester! It has the same mash bill that goes in to the blend of Woodford Reserve, both being made by Brown Forman. I enter every year to win a bottle of their birthday bourbon, haven’t had any luck yet.
Woodford Reserve is my go-to. It’s not hard to find, it has a reliable taste being a blended bourbon, and is generally well regarded. They are a big sponsor of the Kentucky Derby, so it’s got some cachet across the luxury brand spectrum. However, my grandpa worked for Brown-Forman his whole life so it has an emotional connection for me and makes me a little biased.
Weller Special Reserve (green label) is pretty easy to find these days, about $50 a bottle and considered by some to be one of the more accessible PVW-adjacent bourbons.
I’ll add Booker’s to this list, if your friend enjoys sour mash flavor profiles like Jim Beam/Jack Daniels. It’s pricier, maybe over $100 now, and a bit harder to find.
That’s a sneaky-ass edit just to rant at someone on the internet. They didn’t say “only 20-30k” they said it’s 20-30k for just the solar panels on the roof. They even go on to say that 20-30k is really expensive.
