Eating While Smoking?

Flynnster · 08-12-2011, 03:14 PM

Now I'm not talking about a full meal, but today me and a friend were enjoying some cigars, and I walked past a bag of banana chips, looked good, so I took them out. Man did those go great with my 8-5-8! I would just grab one occasionally.

What about everyone else? Anyone have a go to munchie while smoking?

Chocolate, nuts, and cookies are all great with a smoke.

Chocolate for sure.

There are companies that enevn make packs to pair with different cigars. The prices I saw are insane...

I've actually enjoyed a cigar with a full meal- it just has to be the right kind of pairing. I've had success with English pub fare (fish and chips, etc.) and ale.

never.

Mmm, bacon explosion. Thanks for bringing that up, I need to make another and enjoy it with a cigar.

I had the same brand just plain.

I love NUTS!!

Not a fan of eating and smoking -- I find that a cigar with or immediately after any food intake just isn't flavorful at best and downright nasty at worst. The exception? Chocolate.

I feel the same way about most beverages and cigars too.

If you haven't had chocolate cake and nicaraguan coffee with an Oliva Blue Band O, you haven't lived.

Mattso3000 · 08-12-2011, 03:46 PM

I like cigars, I like eating, I like drinking...how could they not go well together? That said, definitely depends on what you are eating or drinking.

Don't laugh... when I first started, I was smoking an Erin go Bragh. We had a bowl of jelly beans on the table, so I grabbed a handful. Damn, that was a good pairing.

Chocolate cake and coffee goes with almost anything, before - after - during. It's a combination of the age's!

Gross....no!

Steak, lobster, Lake Erie perch, BBQ, brats, burgers, oysters, clams....I've had at all. When the food is ready, and the cigars is good and only half done...well, I ain't putting it out.

This.

One of my fondest experiences was burning an 08 CoLa and half way through eating a rare cheeseburger at the same time.

Delicious.

I've always liked eating while I smoke, even when I smoked cigarettes.
