Whisky is not Whine

[Catharps]

Mom grabbed a bottle that was on the counter to add to the pot roast as a marinade. . . I am now out of 14 year Clynelish.

She asked if she should dump it out- I told her not to dare!

We shall see how this 'Highland Pot Roast' turns out.

I shall be interested to hear how it turns out.

I hope the reverse osmoses works well with roast. I imagine the flavor and oils of the meat infused and the water forced out would taste great.

What time is dinner?

I really want to know how this turns out!

Definitely a tragic loss. I have eaten whisky marinated steaks that were very tasty, so I`m betting the pot roast turns out well. A pity she couldn`t have grabbed the cheap blended stuff though.

So what say you Catharps? What is the verdict? I am VERY interested to know!

The pot roast is on hold (and hopefully getting nice and flavorful) as we are car shopping.

After the initial panic, I'm getting excited about this roast.

One of the first rules I learned about cooking with spirits - use the best that you can afford!
After reduction, what's left in the pot is what counts. It's also the difference between the cheap stuff and the more expensive (higher quality) spirits.

That makes sense, and I might be willing to go as far as, say, The Famous Grouse, or a young malt such as Lismore for cooking. On my budget, though, quality single malts are for drinking!

I totally agree!
