Maybe 10 years ago, maybe longer, I was introduced to this snack by my now late brother in law @nosebleed. He had brought it from Costco in the US.

I found it once at Costco in Toronto then never again. Today, in order to help my wife with the heavy stuff like bread flour, I went with her to Costco.

In order to try to find a shorter line we cut across the snack aisle and… There it was!

I picked up 3 ( one for my brother). Now I don’t plan to stock up the way I have with whisky, but I’m really glad to see it again. Hopefully this will become a regular item.

Easter Dinner: Lamb Shank Curry with Eggplant. There was a Bourbon Barrel Aged Red Wine to go with it...

@YakLord Sounds like an interesting wine. How was it?

@BlueNote It was this one: 1924wines.com/wines/… I've had a few bourbon cask aged reds and for the most part they've all been pretty good. I think it works best with a red blend, though, as that way the bourbon flavour doesn't overwhelm the subtleties of a single variety wine.

@YakLord Lamb at my house for Easter too. Sous vide for about 8 hours and finished on the grill.

@TracerBullet Nice! The shanks were done low and slow: 2.5hrs simmering in the gravy.

Made pastrami: 2.5lb brisket, 6 days in brine, rubbed with a ground coriander, black pepper, and smoked paprika spice rub, covered with foil over steam bath & cooked at 300'F for 2.5 hours. So tasty! Will make Reuben Sandwiches for lunch tomorrow...

@YakLord I'm salivating. That's some serious looking rye bread; not for the faint of heart.

@BlueNote Thanks! I actually managed to get my daughter to try one (went a little lighter on the sauerkraut for her), and she enjoyed it, so that's a win in my books.
