Parties, Grilling & Beverages - A Meat Cocktail
Whether you grill, smoke or do mostly oven roasted goodness, your cutting board always has some form of delectable juices laying about in the trough around the edges. This is where you’ll find lovers of the medium dredging their kill through for extra flavors and textures. It’s prized highly and never lasts long.Well, at a local gathering on Saturday this nectar of the gods went faster than normal. You see, Cameron of Married … with dinner was in attendance. I’d never met the guy, or his wife Anita. They’re the kind of people that within about one half of a conversation you realize they’re no slouches in whatever they do. These people know tons of junk and are keen as a razor’s edge. But why was Cameron pouring the meat juices in to a small drinking class, actually 2 glasses?
He disappeared, 1 in each hand. When he returned, a shot of vodka had been added to the slurry. And by slurry I mean, pork, beef, lamb, bacon, goat and andouille. Cameron handed one to me and drank his down. A sip first, then mine followed. Man, it was surely a good meaty, then spiky booze hit, then fatty meat, then booze. It was crazy, it was like gravy, but a booze drink. I dearly loved both the flavors and mixtures and how it finished.
Thank you Cameron, thank you very much.
