Poke with Stick

Callisons Seasoned Skewers

You’ve often wished some good could come of poking a sharp object into someone’s meaty flesh.

Unfortunately, there is nothing “good” about jail.

So take out your aggression on your dinner instead with Callisons Seasoned Skewers. Crafted from untreated Maine wood and flavored naturally with oils and herbal extracts, the sticks infuse food from the inside out, giving it more punch than a typical marinade.

Choose an essence (Thai coconut lime, garlic herb, citrus rosemary, Indian mango curry, honey bourbon, or Mexican fiesta), jam it in your chosen victim (poultry, beef, pork, fish, seafood, or veggies), and let it sit for ten to fifteen minutes before cooking (grill, bake, pan sear, or roast).

For an added kick, soak the sticks in wine or beer before inserting them. The skewers are totally fat and sodium free, so there’s no need to feel guilty.

Assuming, of course, you don’t stick them where they don’t belong.
