==Benton's Bacon Fat-Infused bourbon==
Fat washing is the process of combining hot fat to a liquid, and once the fat solidifies, straining it off. This will allow some of the flavors from the fat to infuse into the liquid before the fat has a chance to solidify. In the case of bacon, the liquid will be infused with a decidedly "bacon" flavor.

'''Benton's Bacon Fat-Infused bourbon'''
* 1 1/2 ounces bacon fat (Benton's, or a thick cut bacon)
* 750 ml bourbon
Directions:
# In a small saucepan, warm the bacon over a low heat.
# Once the fat mostly melts (about 5 minutes), combine the liquid fat and bourbon in a large heat-proof container and stir.
# Allow to set for about four hours, then move it to a freezer for two hours.
# Remove any obvious chunks of fat, then strain through cheesecloth to remove the rest.
# Bottle and store in the refrigerator.
