Instead, I end that first night with a Ramos Gin Fizz, another classic normally requiring a lengthy shake. Should you end your night here, order an old fashioned and sticky toffee pudding, the warm, gooey sponge dessert of the 1980s steamed the retro way in a can. Farmer and Sons staple the old fashioned is correctly built over a sugar cube soaked with bitters, the slow melting rock taking heat off the neat bourbon pour. The Gem’s bloody mary is a bar-kitchen collaboration using charcoal salt, a Wm.

An Aperol spritz, the hallmark of summer, deploys Cappelletti to good effect, though I suspect it’s the white-wine syrup pushing the balance too sweet. Order a perfectly chilled martini with olives, a lemon twist or Gibson-style with house pickled cocktail onions. Petraske’s legacy lives on in a Milk & Honey classic: the bourbon, honey and fresh lemon Gold Rush shaken hard and served over impeccably clear ice trucked up from New York City and cut on site. Under the tent, chandeliers hang over Adirondack chairs and rustic picnic benches that are workhorses for glistening trays of meat, sauce-bottle spills and a diverse crowd from chattering families to Sagamore guests in country-club pants. With the smoker as focal point, Adirondack chairs are positioned in the gravel around a firepit with Pendleton blankets in National Park stripes draped on their backs. Ribs, butts and briskets slow-smoke at 250 degrees for 10 to 12 hours in this magician’s box, meats dry-rubbed first and later wrapped in peach-colored butcher paper to protect the bark. The wood, sourced locally, is cherry, apple or hickory, depending on the week. A quick look and I spied favorite natural wines you’d expect in Hudson or Troy, and left with a $22 txakolina and lightly effervescent rose vinho verde for $12.99, both easy sippers for a day on the lake.īehind The Gem, a large Smithfield Pride smoker holds the fort beside carefully stacked hardwoods a smaller one smokes racks of heritage chicken.

(The Gem and Little Gem names are a nod to Lake George islands.) You’re generally hard pressed to find good wine between the southern basin and Ticonderoga up north, so Little Gem is a game-changer. Joining the family is Little Gem, the sibling liquor store next door. Even the tangy baked beans are front-loaded with burnt ends, shoulder trimmings and leftover brisket. But meat is in the driving seat with Schaller & Weber gold medal German beer brats smothered in housemade sweet red pepper relish and fat-jiggling slabs of Texas prime brisket resplendent on paper-lined metal trays. Sure, the keto and gluten-free can tuck into three- and four-meat combos vegetarians can suck on The Gem’s tart pickles and pink pickled onions, pull apart Martin’s potato rolls and fill up on coleslaw. Let me extend the apology now to those who say I should cover all dietary restrictions.

The Gem is a smokehouse, and it’s unapologetically about meat.

(As locals know, water-skiing the still morning lake must, for full credit, be done on one ski.) Antlers adorn walls alongside felt flags common in Adirondack camps banquette seating is upholstered in striped Pendleton blankets the sound track is The Who, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors. The former Sagamore Pub has been transformed in dark paints, natural woods and a water-skiing logo that captures the vintage Chris-Crafts and Hacker-Crafts on the lake. The Farmers and Boccatos have done what we patiently hoped they would: Create an instant lake classic with equal thought given to decor, cocktails and slow-smoked meat.
