On average after some one drinks alcohol when is their highest blood alcohol level ?
If you know of a graph I can look at that would be excellent.

Within 20 minutes, you have absorbed most of the alcohol in your stomach. Within an hour, you have absorbed it all.
The myth about food slowing it down isn't really about the rate at which alcohol is absorbed. When you have alcohol in your body, it inhibits the mechanism by which your body converts pyruvate into blood sugar to keep your blood sugar from getting too low. If you drink without eating, your body can't keep your blood sugar up, which makes you feel more affected, but it isn't because of speed of absorption.
