    I don't know Jack about whiskey (sorry, had to), but the old rule on cooking with wine is if you won't drink it, don't cook with it.

    I ate ribs at a neighbor's house yesterday that had Crown Royal salted carmel in the glaze. They were delicious. I don't drink Crown Royal so I'm not sure what a small bottle would cost. I have used Jim Beam maple before with good results.

      Ha! I can think of a few that should only be used as starting fluid for brush fires. Different strokes for different folks.

        I generally drink single malt scotch and there isn't any"cheap" single malts. However when I am looking for something a lot less expensive, and still fairly close to my single malts (like when we are having company and they might want to drink my scotch!) I buy 40 Creek. I think it is the best of the Canadian whiskeys, and I have enough of those blue (and black) velvet bags to make a couple of cheesy 80's disco suits!

          Fer sauces, or bourbon baked beans, I use summat like Beam Black, Knob Creek, Makers Mark; they all bring some real flavour to th table, while still bein relatively affordable, an yup, I drink em neat, as well...
          Buffalo Trace is better, on all counts, but harder to find, and more pricey.

          Fer a mixer whiskey, an generic cookin, good ol Jack Black works jus fine, an is th lowest on th whiskey chain that I'll go, nowadays....

            Evan Williams (in the black lable) has my preferred Value Brand bourbon for a long long long time. It's tasty. decent enough that I can have it on the rocks. Cheap enough that I don't mind mixing it. Very similar taste profile to Jim Beam, but less expensive.
            They have recent introduced a new Bottled in Bond 100 proof version (White Label) that I like even more.

            Evan Williams won't let you down.
