Your best Old Fashioned recipe.

Been making the standard 2oz Rye Whisky / 2-3 splashes of angasturo bitters / 2 splashes of orange bitters / 2 teaspoons of simple syrup / spritz of orange peel.
Any alternate recipes I should try? Brown sugar? Different bitters? Muddled sugar cubes instead of simple syrup

The OF is the house cocktail at Barrel Proof on magazine. They use Old Grandad bonded, about 6 dashes of Angustora bitters, simple syrup and the orange peel spritz. It’s spicier and great for a change. My son makes this at home when we ask him to make an OF.
I like the standard 2 oz of bourbon or rye with 3 dashes of each peychauds and orange bitters, simple syrup and a luxardo cherry
In the winter I’ve substituted maple syrup for simple and used walnut bitters.

A great old fashioned doesn’t have measured ingredients

That sounds perfect to me

I like every old fashioned recipe after the second one.

4 ounces of Woodford Reserve
1 eye dropper of Woodford Spiced Cherry Bitters (if only half full, use 2 halves)
1.5 ounces of Finest Call Simple Syrup
Stir with ice and pour over single large cube of ice with 2 Luxardo cherries and splash a teaspoon Luxardo cherry juice over the ice.
Never had one person turn this down.
Cheers.

2 oz rye
4-5 ang bitters
1-2 dash craft cocktail experiment bitters
.5 oz simple
Express orange peel and toss in with cocktail cherry
That's my go to, but I also play with smoking them as well as utilizing chocolate/spiced cheery and orange bitters. It's crazy how many directions you can take them

i like to muddle some of the black cherries in mine(ive tried several different brands and they all taste the same)...if i really want to switch it up ill do some chocolate bitters instead of orange.

Fill glass with ice. Pour Bookers. Enjoy

Ignoring Lester and t00f's fight...
I find simple syrup absolutely makes a difference.
Homemade SS - mixed results
Pat O's SS (rouses, everywhere)- Gives a very artificial aftertaste.
Master of Mixes Old Fashioned mixer (everywhere)- Straight garbage. Do not buy.
Barsmith Old Fashioned - (total wine) at $4.49 it's the best bang for the buck. Nothing wrong with it.
Syrop de Saizon - (rouses)at $13/bottle it's damn near the price of a bottle of Bullett. It's the best of the bunch though. A little bit goes a long way.
I don't know if you guys have noticed this, but I see a huge difference shaking the cocktails and straining it into the glass vs stirring. Maybe I just like them super cold.

I like mine with knob creek small batch bourbon, angostura bitters, simple syrup, and orange and cherry muddle. I do not muddle the orange peel as it seems to make it bitter and I prefer the luxxardo cherries that you can buy at Alexander’s.

Keep it simple for me.
Muddle sugar cube soaked in bitters, whiskey of your choice, stir to chill and dilute, strain over fresh ice, orange peel.
Overly sweet and addition of fruit (other than citrus peel) grinds my gears.
