I could have sworn I saw you post a recipe for St Bruno and SWRA but I can't find it. Would you direct me to where it's posted? Thanks
I pouch St. Bruno RR laid out on a plate . . . Microwave for 30 seconds . . . Let cool and top dress with SWRA . . . Microwave for 30 seconds. Jar / tin for a few days to marry. I would estimate the SWRA to be 20 - 25% of the total mixture.

Is the microwave to sort of turbo-stove it? Or are you heating so the toppings marry?
Stoveit. I used this recipe but ended up adding more SWRA, 40% The hot Bruno ends up smelling like smokey beef jerky. It's good.

I have never weighed the components . . . I mix by sight. Could very well be closer to your mix.

Smells great the second time out of the microwave . . . slightly crispy.

I really like this blend and I'm definitely going to make a larger batch when I order tobacco again.. it's just one of those mixtures that works well together.

I have been smoking this mix for a few months and really enjoy it. I mixed 5 pounds over the Holidays which includes 2 pounds each Smokers Pride Mellow Taste and Sutliff 515 RC - 1 and 1 pound Mac Baren Virginia #1. That would be 40 / 40 / 20 respective percentages. Needs to marry now for some time.

I appreciate the components being readily available and cost friendly. Not creative enough to name it and have just been referring to it as SPMT Mix.

I have a tin of the MB pure Virginia flake that I didn't find to exciting. Maybe I just couldn't smoke it slow enough. Think I'm going to order some blending perique and try my hand at mixing up a Va/Per of my own.

My Redheaded Bombshell blend is too expensive to make ., IRC shipping is horrendous etc ... maybe ill make it again but Ive been playing with a similar blend lately

Basically , a cup of an all black cavendish that isnt highly flavored , like Lane BCA or SPBC . A couple small pinches of CB Cherry and a pinch of SWR . Im after a mild cherry flavor in the background and it seems to be pretty nice . Ive made it a few times now and like it . One day Ill get a scale , lol

My go to everyday smoke is 1Q mixed with Blending Lat I get from Pipes and Cigars. I think it is Peter Stokkebye. I mix it roughly 4 to 1. Sometimes 4/2.

I used to mix 2oz 1Q 2oz of Highland Whisky and one oz of Lat but just dropped the HW cause it got lost on the 1Q.

I am going to add Sutliff Bourbon next go around to get that sour mash thing going in the background.
