yeah right - April 14, 2019April 14, 2019

Happy Sunday Everyone! Welcome to another edition of Sunday Gravy, where I, hopefully, engage, encourage and impress with my epicurean talents and tantalizing recipes. Or some such shit. Again, this recipe was via a very solid request from our own Scotchnaut on one of the Saturday morning open threads. He requested, I complied.

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Ward 8

Sharkbait - April 12, 2019April 12, 2019

Rigged elections? Cheating? In Boston? Shocking, I know. But that is how the Ward 8 was born. The drink was named after Boston's 8th Ward, which was located in the neighborhood now known as the West End. A bar called the Locke-Ober created the drink in 1898 in homage to

Sunday Gravy with yeah right: Road Trip – New Mexico!

yeah right - April 7, 2019April 6, 2019

Good morning folks! Here we are again. I thought what might be an interesting idea for a menu would be to focus on a region as opposed to a specific recipe. Today we will be taking a look at the cuisine of New Mexico, a state that is equal parts beautiful and

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: The Brazen Bull

Sharkbait - April 5, 2019April 5, 2019

Happy Friday everyone. The warmer weather is finally upon (most of) us, especially in the Northeast. With the temperatures rising, I thought it was time to add some heat to my cocktails and explore some spicy beverages. My first thought was a drink I've had numerous times at a bar

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: The Great Martini Debate

Sharkbait - March 29, 2019March 29, 2019

Gin or vodka? Shaken or stirred? Garnish? I can't think of a cocktail that has more variations, and sparks more debate than a martini. Arguments over what goes into it, is it shaken or stirred (Thanks Ian Fleming) are commonplace, and any source you choose to check will probably tell

Sunday Gravy with yeah right: Blackened Chicken Alfredo. Oh My!

yeah right - March 24, 2019March 22, 2019

Good morning everyone! Welcome back to Sunday Gravy. I feel I have a little making up to do after subjecting you to last week's menu of "shit on a shingle." I'm mostly joking because there were some great parts to that meal, yet still I thought you regular readers needed something special. A

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Si, El Presidente

Sharkbait - March 22, 2019March 22, 2019

Happy Friday drinkers. Hopefully the majority of you are working from home watching the tournament, debating on daydrinking options. I feel an obligation to provide some inspiration in this area.

Good morning all! Welcome back. That's quite the sexy, intriguing, "anything-is-possible" image up there isn't it? Isn't it? Try this one on for size instead. A little better? Shit, man! Work with me here. How would one actually approach the concept of recipe writing for...well, "Shit on a Shingle?" I know, right? Somewhere over the past few weeks, forgive

Good morning everyone! I've got a regular goddamn ding-dang doozy of a recipe for you. I shit you negative! In all honesty it feels like my entire existence has been a precursor just for this moment. I was born solely to bring this into your life. It is my raison d'être. This fucker is

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Turf Cocktail Number 2

Sharkbait - March 1, 2019March 1, 2019

Think back to the Remember the Maine post. The PDT Cocktail book had a side note on the history of the cocktail, that came from Charles H. Baker and his book "The Gentleman's Companion: Being an Exotic Drinking Book. Or, Around the World with Jigger, Beaker, and Flask". When organizing
