Pork & Pappy: A Bourbon & BBQ Showdown for Six

Tonight's signature experience pairs rare, elite bourbon with Southern Living-featured BBQ in a one-night-only tasting crafted for people who appreciate serious flavor.

Rare Bourbon Head-to-Head Tasting for Six Guided by one of Charlotte's leading bourbon aficionados, your group will explore a curated lineup of hard-to-find pours - presented in three high-stakes matchups:

• Weller 12 vs. Weller Full Proof
• Blanton's Gold vs. EH Talor
• George T. Stagg (Buffalo Trace Antique Collection) vs. Stagg Jr.

And to crown the evening: Pappy Van Winkle 10 Year - a coveted pour that few ever have the chance to taste.

Sweet Lew's BBQ Dinner is crafted by pitmaster Lewis Donald - the classically trained chef, founder of the Carolina BBQ Festival, and featured in Southern Living for his slow, all-wood-smoked craft.

Expect award-winning meats paired with elevated, chef-driven sides that showcase his signature technique and unmistakable flavor.

Rare bourbon. Legendary BBQ. A flavor showdown built for bragging rights.

Bourbon Mystery Box

Calling all bourbon adventurers, collectors, and people who make questionable decisions in silent auctions - this one's for you.

Inside this Bourbon Mystery Box, you'll find five bottles that are absolutely not messing around:

• 3 allocated bottles - the kind your local ABC clerk pretends never existed
• 2 limited-edition releases - blink and they're gone
• And rumor has it one bottle may even have a horse on it (You know what that means. And yes, your bourbon friends will judge you if you don't bid.)
  
  

This box is built for the brave. The curious. The "I don't need to know what's inside, I just know it's good" crowd.

This is your chance to take home a lineup that's rare, ridiculous, and ridiculously fun.

Who's ready to roll the dice?
