Ingredients
Bloody Bull:
- Fennel Spice Rub, recipe follows, or your favorite spice rub
- 6 chilled beers
- 4 cups Bloody Bull Mix, recipe follows
Directions
To make Bloody Bull:
Rub pre-chilled glass rims in bowl of fennel spice rub or your favorite spice rub. Pour a beer in each glass, top with bull mix. Stir with a spoon and serve.
Fennel Spice Rub:
- 1 cup fennel seeds
- 3 tablespoons coriander seeds
- 2 tablespoons white peppercorns
- 3 tablespoons kosher salt
To make Fennel Spice Rub:
Put the fennel seeds, coriander seeds, and peppercorns in a heavy pan over medium heat. Watch carefully, tossing frequently so the seeds toast evenly. When light brown and fragrant, pour the seeds onto a plate to cool. They must be cool before grinding, or they will gum up the blades.
Pour the seeds into a blender and add the salt. Blend to a fine powder, shaking the blender occasionally to redistribute the seeds. Store in a tightly sealed glass jar in a cool, dry place, or freeze.
Bloody Bull Mix:
- 1 quart tomato juice
- 1 scallion, roughly chopped
- 1 jalapeno (with seeds), stemmed
- 2 tablespoons grated fresh horseradish, or to taste
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, roughly chopped
- Grey salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
To make Bloody Bull Mix:
Combine tomato juice, scallion jalapeno, horseradish, lemon juice, garlic and salt and pepper in a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour in a pitcher and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Like David and Russell indicate - absolutely - a Bloody Bull uses beef broth. One thing to remember - if you're using Campbell's Beef Consomme (it's concentrated & has a great flavor- be sure to read the label and get the can that says no gelatin added.

By definition and Bloody Bull has beef broth or consomme in it. That's why they call it "bull" - it's the beef.

A Bloody Bull is just that, a Bloody Mary with Beef Broth (hence the bull part added for an extra hearty flavor. This recipe calls for no beef broth. The flavor of all the ingredients are great & should include beef broth in order to honor it's name. Just add a shot or 2 of beef broth (Campbells works well to your next Bloody Mary to see what all the buzz is about. I also like an extra shake or 2 of Tabasco in mine to give an extra kick.
