Recipe calls for Bourbon Whiskey, I only have Southern Comfort.

[ICRS]

Southern Comfort is a grain neutral Whiskey, but Bourbon is a corn whiskey. Would it be ok to use it as a substitute though?

This is NOT for a drink, but for an item that will cooked. Ham.

 

[Tiamat]

Not generally since SoCo is a liqueur that happens to have whiskey as its main component. It is not a pure whiskey (it has fruit flavoring), so the flavor it lends to the recipe will be incorrect.

 

[KLin]

Substitute rubbing alcohol. Make sure to use 3 times what the recipe calls for.

 

[acid45]

just add pickels

This, if it calls for sour mash.

It's not a great substitute, but it will do in a pinch. The SoCo will give the ham a different flavor, but it won't necessarily be a bad flavor and it might even be a better flavor as hams do well with sweet glazing. Do you have any other brown whiskeys other than bourbon and Southern Comfort? A rye like Seagrams 7 or VO or a Canadian Whiskey would be a closer match to the recipe.

 

[TallBill]

Don't choke on the ham.

Southern Comfort is much thicker and sweeter than bourbon. You MIGHT be able to substitue bourbon mixed with sugar or honey to thicken it. <blech>

You might want to brush up on your reading comprehension skills.

SoCo isn't whiskey, it's a peach flavored liqueur that happens to have a whiskey base. It's going to give the ham a different flavor than a bourbon whiskey would, much sweeter and fruitier. That said, ham can taste good with a sweet glaze or cooked in sweet fruity things, so I doubt it would ruin the meat... What are you serving it with?

My reading skillz am jest fyne...I see that he has a recpe that calls for him to use Southern Comfort in a recipe as a glaze...but doesn't have any. He wants to know about substituting bourbon whiskey in the place of Southern Comfort...what do you think I missed?

Even though it's ICRS, (many of us suspect an alias for casiotech) I opted not to recommend using De-con, arsenic, or some other rat poison as the thickening agent.

Do YOU need to brush up on YOUR comprehension skillz?

Don't forget to spread a thick layer of Sterno over it, to give it a unique texture.

Or you could go to the Liquor Store and pick up some Absinthe . . .

doesnt mean it will be bad

if youre mixing it with some other things it might be ok, mix some to the side and see how it tastes (keep in mind the alcohol will cook off)

i used Hennessey today instead of bourbon *shrug* good enough

 

[scott916]

SoCo doesn't have any whiskey in it at all anymore. It'll probably still taste decent, just sweeter.

This thread is now going places.

What a retard.

 

[BoomerD]

Can I substitute Southern Comfort for Bourbon Whiskey.

Anyone have a pry-bar so I can get my big foot out of my bigger mouth? :disgust:

 

[ICRS]

It turned out good. People seemed to like the Ham. Was also thinking about using spenda instead of the called for sugar. Decided against and it turned out well.
