Years back I was up north on a cold and rainy day where witnessed two gentlemen order a “bull shot” at the bar of a nice establishment. Intrigued by the name, I watched as the bar tendered concocted the drinks.
He didn’t reach for the Red Bull energy drink that most would think, he instead grabbed a container that was labeled beef stock! After doing some research, this shot has been around since what’s believed the 1960’s.

I got the recipe from the bartender and added a few of my own touches. The main ingredient that I added was indeed the stock from a buck that I had killed earlier that year. So since 2010 I’ve made it a point to have this drink with a fellow hunter after a cold late season hunt.
You can kind of compare this shot to a bloody Mary as it uses vodka and some of the same spices. You can enjoy chilled or my preference, warmed up on a cold day.
