Do make any derivate sauces from it, or just use it for steaks as-is

Yeah, I figured. Not sure if it's worth going through all that trouble to make demi yourself if you're just going to dump a bunch of shit in it to make a Chasseur or whatever.

This video makes me want to build a tandoor. There's already a gopher hole in my yard so I'm basically halfway there.

Used a portion of the demi I made the other day for dinner. It's making me think shooters of demi at a bar would rock but can't think of what to chase it with.

Smoked chicken or pork bites! Thinking alcohol is thinking too far into it, dont waste good demi!
