Best Bourbon to Pair with Smoked Pulled Pork

Barbecue and whiskey are a match made in heaven. There’s nothing quite like the classic combination of smoked meats and delicious bourbon!

Smoked pulled pork - Is one of the classics of smoked bbq.
Pulled pork comes from the shoulder of the hog. The key with a pork butt is to cook it long enough to allow the fat to render and the meat to breakdown.
In the end after 10-12 hours of low and slow smoking the pork will melt in your mouth. With the fat rendered and meat fall off the bone it will be rich, moist, even have buttery texture, along with a deep hickory smoke.

If you’re going to pair smoked pulled pork with whisky, you’re going to have to opt for bottles with a bit of weight and depth to them. The fatty oils and savory smoke will need to be balanced.

Here are 3 bottles that perfectly pair with smoked pulled pork!

I enjoyed the video and those were great bourbons to select and they would go well with a rich dish like a pulled pork. It would be good to understand more about how the pork was prepared, what wood was used for the smoke, did you use a rub and what kind, etc. These choices might also influence the flavor pairing as a rye might be a good companion choice too. Looking forward to more videos.
