What's wrong with Mezcal being the king of smoked spirits ;)
Definitely is a new/hipster trend with Andrew Knowlton (from Georgia) saying the same thing
as you—"When I grew up in Georgia, you would never go to a BBQ restaurant and find alcohol. You go to have barbecue just to eat… it seems kind of like a weird pairing on the surface of things."
Growing up in Texas it was either beer (your Dad beers (Miller Lite, Bud Lite, Coors Lite)) and tea. Maybe you'd get some kool-aid. And I agree with you that a beer is awesome when it comes to the climate (give me a Real Ale or Lone Star and BBQ and I'm happy). But I have enjoyed my share of bourbon with BBQ–I think that it is a solid pairing and one I'd take over wine if given my choice.
(Seriously though, a good Mezcal is a mighty fine thing).
Yay! So screw hipster bourbon pairings - cheap beer to wash down the goodness :) hifive
I'm not a huge huge huge mezcal enthusiast, but appreciate the flavors and really like seeing how it's grown market-wise. Give me a tequila Añejo and I'm a happy girl!
