Those are so powerful that I might be able to skip a >step... 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!
