We just bought a Vita-Mix and I made my first gravy with it.  It was
FABULOUS!  I cooked the chicken (cut into pieces) for about 2 or 3 hours.
Found out one important thing..............LET IT COOL some!! LOL   Put
some in the Vita-Mix while it was still a bit too hot and BLAM..  it was
all over the place--hanging from the cabinets..  uck!!
 
After cooling, it worked wonderfully.  I always strain my gravy..  just
cannot think about bone shards in there......... I know Bob, I know.....
 
You can make so many wonderful things with the Vita-Mix and the fact that
it helped me make my gravy in half the time is such a plus!!  Expensive,
but money well spent!
 
Love on your fuzzies!
