Have you done this before?  I enjoy both from time to time but can't figure out how together it would taste.  Please enlighten me.

Not a big rye fan - prefer a nice single malt Scotch or Irish - but very curious about how this turned out.

That Rye is some good stuff!

I was musing over the "leftover" and bacon thing myself, it has never happened in this house.

Scotch, Bourbon, Tennessee whiskey, Vodka, Tequila, I think if it is distilled I like it.

They had smoked salmon flavored Vodka in AK.

Let us know how the "Bacon on Rye" turns out.

I have taken bacon grease from an applewood smoked bacon that I cooked on the stove and poured its into a mason jar with some JD in it.  I let it go for a couple of days and then put the jar into the freezer to collect all the bacon fat on the top.  Lifted off the grease disc and poured a nice shot.  Flavor was good, but I think I prefer mine unflavored.

Can taste the smoked bacon. Tried the bacon but it was kinda mushy.
