Prep: 10 mins
Ingredients:
• 2 lemons
• 2 pounds red tomatoes
• 4 strips of bacon
• 8 medium celery stalks
• 1 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 1/2 tablespoons freshly grated horseradish
• 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 8 ounces vodka
• Tabasco or Sriracha hot sauce (optional)
• Olives, pickles and tomatoes for garnishing (optional)
Directions:
• Light Cowboy Hardwood Lump Charcoal in a charcoal chimney and let burn for 10-15 minutes
• Spread hot coals over grilling area and preheat grill for approximately 10 minutes
• Cut all tomatoes and lemons in half
• Once grill has preheated, brush grill gates with oil and place tomatoes and lemons flat side down on grill grates over indirect heat. Grill until well browned on bottoms, about 4 minutes. Remove and let cool
• Place strips of bacon and celery stalks on grill. Grill half of the celery stalks for 1 minute until they are lightly singed and remove from grill
• Allow remaining celery stalks to cook for an additional 4 to 5 minutes, flipping once until they are charred and dark brown
• Once bacon is crispy and cooked through – approximately 6 minutes – remove from grill and let cool
• Place tomatoes and charred celery stalks into a food processor. Add 3 tablespoons of lemon juice, the Worcestershire sauce, horseradish, sugar, salt and pepper. Blend until mixture is smooth
• Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a measuring cup, yielding about 2 cups of mix
• For each drink, combine 1/2 cup Bloody Mary mix with 2 ounces of vodka. Mix well
• Garnish with celery sticks and bacon and add desired Tabasco or Sriracha sauce for added heat and flavor
• Add olives, pickles, or any other garnishes. And of course, always make sure to enjoy this delicious drink responsibly
Enjoy the flavors of the open range. Across the western frontier, chuck wagon chefs grilled over aromatic wood fires and created “cowboy cuisine.” Our sauces descend from those heritage recipes. They enhance grilled food rather than overpower it. Pair with beef, pork, and poultry, and everything in between.
