The Boardsmith, a maker of butcher blocks, is converting white oak barrels previously used to age Knob Creek to grilling plants. They will be marketed as Knob Creek Bourbon Barrel Grilling Planks.
“We know fans of Knob Creek Bourbon have an appreciation for things crafted with care, attention to detail and with full flavor in mind, just as we’ve crafted our bourbon for nearly 30 years,” said 7th Generation Master Distiller Fred Noe. “The folks at The Boardsmith share those values, and we are proud to team up with them to give whiskey fans a new way to savor our bourbon and bring their cooking to a new level.”
Carefully crafted into a grilling plank by the team at The Boardsmith, the barrel wood can be used to cook fish, meat or vegetables on the grill. The result is a sensory experience, the companies say, is packed with Knob Creek Bourbon’s signature aroma and smoky, yet sweet bourbon notes that accentuate any grill master’s fare.
Knob Creek Bourbon Barrel Grilling Planks will be available while supplies last, starting on July 27 at www.theboardsmith.com/products/knob-creek-bourbon-barrel-grilling-planks for $25 for a set of two with shipping included.
