Union Public House is featuring its extensive whiskey collection in a new way by pairing it with an old favorite.
The Bacon Whiskey Dinner is five courses of pure decadence, each dish paired with a carefully-selected whiskey. The starter, a BLT slider with bacon confit, tomato jam and an arugula puree, took first place at Arizona Bacon Fest 2015.
Be sure to save room though as you work your way through a Roquefort Fettuccini and the BBQ Pork Belly Brisket. Then to cap off the evening dip into a Maple Bacon Sundae with maple bacon ice cream, candied bacon and spiced bacon fat pecans.
