Midwest Barrel Company — Local services in Louisville

Let me tell you about my day using Midwest Barrel Co. Bourbon Barrel Smoking Chips.

I got the smoker going about an hour before lunch and threw some frozen burger patties in the smoker with some of the bbq rub I would be using. They came out amazing. Light smoke flavor with some of the awesome vanilla notes that the bourbon imparts.

When I took the burgers out I put in ribs. Did 3-2-1 method ribs and I have to tell you they were the best ribs I have ever had. The smoke flavor from those chips is amazing. While the ribs were going I also did two pork tenderloins that will be used as lunch meat. Again incredible flavor.

Go grab some of their smoking chips. And while you are at it look at their offerings of gifts barrel heads and sides which they can lazer engrave however you want.

Great company even...

I was delighted to work with Midwest Barrel Company in the design of my boyfriend’s Valentine’s gift. Design team member Taylor sent me three screen shot renditions of what I envisioned and worked with me to my absolute satisfaction. I couldn’t have been more pleased. Once I settled in on my final option, she emailed me again and told me that the work would be completed that very day and would be mailed out the following morning. It’s refreshing to work with a small company that listens carefully to their customer and executes the plan above and far beyond your expectations. Would love to post a picture of the finished design, but I don’t think I have the option on this site. By the way....the recipient loved his gift as much as I loved working with...

I purchased a pallet of 4 A1 barrels. Order 2320802. I expected some wear but all the heads are warped and the barrels all have broken staves. I purchased the A grade to use for furniture, in the future I'll need to consider a better grade or another supplier.

I did not expect such a fast response, Midwest Barrel contacted me within 24 hours and explained what happened. They immediatly made things right. Great company to deal with. I really did not expect this...
