Spirit of the Week

Leadslingers Whiskey Coming Soon!

MEN WHO BELIEVED IN FREEDOM AND GOOD BOOZE WHO LAID DOWN THEIR LIVES, FORGING THE BEDROCK OF THIS REPUBLIC, AND IN DOING SO, CREATED A NEW SPECIES OF MAN: THE AMERICAN. AMERICANS CONQUERED THE WESTERN FRONTIER. MEN OF PISS AND VINEGAR WHO TAMED THE WILD, BATTLED THE ELEMENTS, AND ESTABLISHED THE FIRST AMERICAN SALOONS. IT’S IN THIS FINE TRADITION THAT MEMBERS OF THE VETERAN COMMUNITY PRESENT TO YOU: LEADSLINGERS’ WHISKEY.

BUILDING UPON THEIR DEEP DEDICATION TO BRING UNIQUE PRODUCTS TO THE VETERAN AND SECOND AMENDMENT COMMUNITIES, THE CALL TO MAKE A WHISKEY AS BOLD AS AMERICA WAS HEARD LIKE AN EAGLE’S SCREAM. THIS IS A STORY ABOUT SEIZING OPPORTUNITY WHEN LIFE THROWS IT AT YOU, WHILE NEVER FORGETTING WHERE YOU CAME FROM. THIS IS A STORY ABOUT MEN WHO PURSUE EXCELLENCE. IT’S ABOUT FREEDOM. IT’S ABOUT RAISING A GLASS TO TRADITION, BUT ALSO RAISING THE BAR OF PERFORMANCE. THIS IS THE STORY OF AMERICA, ENCAPSULATED IN THE STORY OF SEVEN MEN WITH A VISION.

LEADSLINGERS’ WHISKEY IS PRODUCED BY SEVEN COMBAT VETERANS, FROM THE US ARMY RANGERS, USAF TACP, SPECIAL FORCES, AND PARATROOPER COMMUNITIES. THEIR LOVE FOR AMERICA AND FINE WHISKEY, IS WHAT THE COMPANY IS ALL ABOUT. THEY WANTED TO CRAFT A WHISKEY THAT WAS ENJOYABLE AND UNREPENTANTLY SUPPORTED THE SECOND AMENDMENT. BY REMAINING ACTIVE IN THEIR CIVILIAN AND MILITARY COMMUNITIES, LEADSLINGERS’ STRIVES TO SET AN EXAMPLE. BE PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE. BE BOLD. NO APOLOGIES.

AND THAT IS WHY LEADSLINGERS’ NAME IS DEVOTED TO THE SECOND AMENDMENT, AND ALL AMERICANS WHO EXERCISE IT. LIKE THOSE WHO STOOD AT LEXINGTON AND CONCORD AS THE BRITISH TRIED TO SEIZE THEIR ARMS AND SAID “NO!”—YOU UNDERSTAND THAT FREEDOM EXISTS AS LONG AS YOU’RE WILLING TO DEFEND IT. LIKE THE MEN WHO TAMED THE WEST, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND YOU ALONE ARE MASTER OF YOUR FAITH. PURSUE HAPPINESS, AND TERMINATE ANY WHO THREATEN YOUR LIFE OR LIBERTY. LEADSLINGERS’ SALUTES YOU! AMERICA SALUTES YOU! NOW POUR A SHOT OF BOLDNESS FORGED IN THE MINDS OF BATTLE HARDENED PATRIOTS AND ENJOY!

BEETROOT RISOTTO W/ GOAT CHEESE

Author: Eric Kim, Food52

Recipe type: Entree

Cuisine: Risotto

Prep time: 10 mins

Cook time: 50 mins

Total time: 1 hour

Serves: 4 to 6

Beets and goat cheese are, for obvious reasons, a match made in heaven. Many restaurants have some semblance of a goat cheese and beet salad on their menus. I thought it’d be nice in a more comforting risotto, and it really works. The sharp goat cheese offsets the earthy-sweet beets. I love using a pair of kitchen shears to snip fresh chives atop the finished plate—it makes it look fancy. And to go with this magenta-hued risotto: a crisp, dry glass of rosé. It helps, too, that you need a splash of this anyway to deglaze the pan as you’re stirring the rice. — Eric Kim, Food52

INGREDIENTS

2 pounds beets, peeled, cleaned, and roughly chopped (frozen is a great option, too)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 pinch kosher salt
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
2 quarts vegetable or chicken stock
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 shallots, finely minced
2 cups Arborio rice
1 cup La Crema Rosé
1/2 cup sour cream
8 ounces goat cheese, chunked into large pieces
1 pinch chopped chives, for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss the beets with olive oil, salt, and pepper roast on a quarter sheet pan until tender, about 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
2. In a small saucepan, bring stock to a simmer and keep warm over a low flame.
3. In a medium braiser or any wide-bottomed, high-sided pan, melt butter and sauté shallots for a couple minutes, or until translucent. Stir in the rice, coating each grain until butter-slicked. Splash in the wine and reduce, stirring constantly.
4. Once the alcohol has evaporated, lower the heat and slowly ladle in the hot stock (one or two ladlefuls at a time), stirring until fully absorbed by the rice between each addition. Keep stirring until the rice is perfectly al dente (to the tooth), about 18 to 20 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, puree the roasted beets with sour cream until very smooth.
6. When cooked to your liking (I like my rice with a slight bite in the middle), stir in the beet and sour cream puree. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
7. Garnish risotto with goat cheese chunks and chives.
