Not yet they don't. But, I am winning converts every day.   Bv)=  Especially
with the increasing availability of "small box" dollar stores which carry much
of the same cheap schlock that the Bentonville Bums carry - at even lower
prices, with easier access and closer to the door parking.

 ML> 3 oz Laird's applejack

Hauled a lot of that stuff from the distillery just down the road from Pat
Stockett's former home. Laird's claims to be located at Scobeyville, NJ - which
doesn't even show up on most maps. It is the oldest licensed distillery in the
United States and received License No. 1 from the U.S. Department of the
Treasury in 1780. Although distillation ceased at the New Jersey location in
1972. The post office thinks they are an official town - One Laird Road
Scobeyville, NJ 07724 - is the only thing there.

They are also the last producer of applejack brandy in the US.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

      Title: Cider-Steamed Mussels w/Applejack Cream
 Categories: Seafood, Vegetables, Fruits, Dairy,booze
      Yield: 4 servings

      1 lg Onion; sliced thin
      1 c  Apple cider
     32    Mussels; cleaned
    1/4 c  Laird's Applejack
      2 c  Heavy cream
           White pepper & salt
    1/4 c  Minced fresh parsley leaves

  Perfect for fall, when apples and mussels are in
  abundance.

  In a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid, combine the
  onion, cider, and 1/2 cup water; bring to a boil over high
  heat. Add the mussels and cook them, covered, for 3-5
  minutes, or until they are opened. Transfer the mussels
  with a slotted spoon to a hated serving dish, discarding
  any unopened ones. Cover them with a hot, damp dishcloth
  to keep them from drying out.

  Add the Applejack to the skillet and reduce the liquid to
  about 1/2 cup. Add the cream, a little at a time, bringing
  the liquid to a boil after each addition, and reduce this
  liquid until it measures about 3/4 cup. Add the white
  pepper and salt it to taste. Strain the sauce through a 
  fine sieve over the mussels, and sprinkle the mixture with
  minced parsley.

  Yield: 4 servings
