Gravy Shooter at Infuse
Seriously, why is this not a thing? Particularly considering frosting shots are a thing. I can’t think of anything I’d rather down a shooter of – what’s better taken in mouthful-sized doses than gravy perfection? Certainly not Sour Puss or tequila.
There was a Slow Food kitchen party tonight at Infuse with biodynamic farmer (and ultra sweet guy) Kris Vester. Wade roasted chickens (taste test: a heritage breed vs. the big-boobed kind) and potatoes, then Berkshire pork chops over braised purple cabbage while he and Kris chatted about food and politics and more food. I snuck out before dessert (but not before wangling a pork chop bone in the kitchen) to come home and fill you in, then prepare to do a talk at the Glenbow tomorrow – part of a new “Out for Lunch” series. I just hope I’m not out TO lunch.

Mmmm, gravy shots. By mouth or vein, fine by me.
Did Lou get the bone?

Awesome. And certainly tastier than a frosting shooter. Which is just gross.

Robyn – no it was a pork chop bone – dogs can’t have cooked bones, I don’t think?

gravy shooter – looooove!

Cooked bones for dogs are bad news, you’re right Julie.
I love gravy, but there’s something a little too hardcore about a gravy shot for me. I can’t explain it. Maybe I need a mashed potato shot with a gravy chaser.

They are?? I thought just cooked chicken bones were bad for dogs? Yikes.

I can see people next Valentine’s Day: lining up for their six-pack of various flavours of gravy shots… in a gift box with a nice bow…

I’m all in for some gravy shooters.
One of my favorite parts of managing restaurants was tasting the sauces before we opened the kitchen.

A gravy shooter sounds way more fun than a frosting shooter!
