Chew Review : Brown's Mule (plug)

#17 Chew Review
Note : After recording product became increasingly soft in the mouth, and very bitter.

[@dakwa1]

I used to chew Browns Mule in the 1070's, and yes they were always very moist. You always had to pack it in a bag, because the only way to remove the plug, was to tear the package off.

[@dirtypatwalsh]

Man I love some plug...I used to buy red man plug all the time and days work when I was a young man in Kentucky.

[@Robert_Sparkman_01]

Robert Sparkman My grandpa, an Appalachian, chewed Red Man for years. He mixed it with Levi Garrett later in life. I can remember him sending me to the grocery store occasionally. He would let me have the change, or give me some extra money. That was when stores sold tobacco to minors. I got a solid brick of a chewing tobacco...I think it was Brown Mule. Anyways I bit off a piece in the alley beside the store. It wasn't long before I swallowed some of the spit and got nauseous, dizzy, and vomited.

[@BergsDipReviews]

Never had this one. I notice most plugs are more bitter than loose leaf and have their own sort of flavor to them. I’ve had some from stores that were as hard as a brick lol

[@onepride812]

Very interesting product, great review!

[@lilkidduhsavage6673]

Are you going to upload another video tonight

[@ryanjofre]

You & Bergs find a plethora of good stuff!!! The only plug I can find here is Days O Work….it costs more than a standard bag of chew. Plug is expensive & rare here. Btw. Northerner….eh. Lol.

[@theangrybuddhaofficial]

Just bought some today and did a quick review on it. I love it honestly!

[@Ohnpro]

Do you know where they still offer this? I’ve heard eastern Kentucky. I’m not far but I can’t find anyone at all that still sells this.

[@Justintime719]

Nice review i haven't had plug in years but i did enjoy it when i did 👍 hope u hv a good newyear

[@michaelhudson4974]

Great review as always

[@goofy2126]

When I was a kid in high school, 1970's, worked outside and chewed a plug of this a day. Loved it. After about two years, the flavor got a bit old and seemingly more bitter, but likely my taste changed. Still enjoy it occasionally. It used to be an RJ Reynolds product, and Pinkerton bought it around 1985, so Pinkerton did not ruin it. I do wonder when it became 82% foreign leaf, although that likely had no effect on flavor. By the way, would also highly recommend Bloodhound, which was my go to after that. It is made by American Snuff Co, (previously Conwwood), based in Memphis, and tends to be available in the deep South. Hence, living in Texas, I had to by it by the box. Hope you do a review on Bloodhound, too. This was an excellent review.

[@SuitandTieDipandChewGuy]

There is a Bloodhound... was a sourcing nightmare.

[@Ohnpro]

Do you know where to get this? All plug tobacco seems as if it’s no longer manufactured

[@Cryptinox]

Happy New Year!

[@Nobluffbuff]

So, they only had Cannon Ball & Days Work at the store. I instead picked up some WB extra long cut chewing tobacco, oddly. Had to give it a review....it is a strange one!

[@SuitandTieDipandChewGuy]

What!? Lucky you... that is one that is rather hard to find!

[@Nobluffbuff]

@@SuitandTieDipandChewGuy I'll take my luck any which way..haha!

[@jimmyanderson7978]

Great video and review !!! I use to chew Brown's mule from time to time but haven't seen it in over 20 years .

[@snakeplissken3825]

Need that, I seen old timers cut half a plug, pioneer style..

[@frankdaniels1763]

I remember my uncle chewing Brown's Mule and days o work when I was little.

[@juglanscinerea]

Is this still in production?

[@reddhead2948]

Havent seen this in years

[@jeff52mow]

Nice job my friend!

[@dingdingding4033]

Looks good gotta try that

[@louisianaman3857]

Never heard of this plug. I’ve had days work and cannon ball and both are pretty good. If I ever see this one gotta give it a try.

[@jimmyanderson7978]

It's been around for years if you like plug give it a try. If i remember right it has a bitter taste to me if i remember right but it's been a long time.

[@louisianaman3857]

Jimmy Anderson Love to have a good Days work every now and then. Havnt ever seen it in my tobacco shop but I can probably get them to get them for me. Hope you have a Happy New Year man!

[@jimmyanderson7978]

@@louisianaman3857definitely give it a try and Thanks for the reply hope you have a great new year too .

[@louisianaman3857]

Jimmy Anderson Thanks man!

[@damienmoats1747]

Can I ask where did you buy it at I simply can't find it anywhere around my area

[@SuitandTieDipandChewGuy]

I had one of my sourcing guys ship it in from the south.

[@BeiNacht]

i’m sitting in class right now with some browns mule in my cheek, man it’s so good

[@birch2766]

Did I hear you say you have a "work switchblade"? As in a switchblade that you use at work?

[@SuitandTieDipandChewGuy]

Yes. Rosewood handle spring assist. Think it is shown in one of the Plug Reviews.

[@SLCNorseman]

Please share where to get this online if still available. A rare find now & would love to try. Did you just say "Rusty Shackleford" at the end? That's a King of the Hill reference, funny! Seriously though, would love to get some Mule Plug. Thanks for the video, great review!

[@SuitandTieDipandChewGuy]

possibly, at a criminal price... www.northerner.com/

[@scottc.5142]

Brown's Mule has got to be the greatest name for a tobacco product, ever!! LOL i love it..

[@lilkidduhsavage6673]

Keep it up

[@margovallen]

Brown's Mule is made up of off-fall, stems and trimmings of cigar tobacco. Basically, all the things that get tossed when rolling handmade cigars. Just saying.

[@SuitandTieDipandChewGuy]

Do you know where they are getting it from? The trimmings?

[@margovallen]

@@SuitandTieDipandChewGuy No, i do not. But.... 18% domestic vs 82% foreign. Not sure but, it may be a nice chew every one and awhile.

[@goofy2126]

I would think that the foreign leaves are from the Caribbean/Latin America. If they are cigar trimmings, it should be good quality leaf.

[@Nobluffbuff]

I remember not liking the sweetness of Redman loose. Would like to try some kind of plug though. Can you suggest to me one that is rather good and doesn't come off like raisins or super sweet? I've seen Days Work before, so I know that brand is available here. Thanks for the review! *edit* ...and I honestly thought that was Days Work when you held it up...sort of confused. They aren't made by the same company?

[@dgb921]

Do you prefer plug or loose?

[@tylermatthews2086]

Can you try Seneca rum please

[@matthewweber4724]

What's this? Chew or dip?

[@scarecrow1307]

If you don't mind me asking, what line of work are you in?

[@SuitandTieDipandChewGuy]

In the past electronic and first person surveillance in the private sector. Now, outdoor property maintenance for local elderly. Long story.
