Bally's Hotel Casino
On Aug. 5, 2007, plaintiff Jannie Williams, aged 48 and not employed at the time due to disability, went to the Wild Wild West Casino at Bally's Atlantic City. At approximately 8:30 p.m., she went for dinner at the Virginia City Buffet, and took from a buffet station some steamed clams with a melted butter sauce. While seated, Williams claimed, she spilled the butter sauce on her arms and abdomen. She claimed she sustained first- and second-degree burns. Williams sued Bally's Hotel Casino for general negligence, alleging that the butter sauce was too hot to serve and caused her injuries. Bally's contended it was not negligent, arguing that Williams spilled the butter sauce on herself and caused her own injuries. A motion in limine by the defense was granted which prohibited Williams from submitting the temperature of the butter sauce into evidence, since Williams did not retain an expert on the matter.
Williams went to the emergency room and was diagnosed with first- and second-degree burns to both arms and her abdomen. She treated her burns with topical creams. Williams claimed that while her burns healed, she is now left with permanent scarring on her arms and abdomen. She further claimed that the scars occasionally bother her when they make contact with certain surfaces, and that she has to wear long sleeves to cover them. She sought general damages. The defense argued that Williams caused her own injuries and her burns have healed. The defense claimed that the scars were barely noticeable and did not constitute a permanent injury.
The jury rendered a defense verdict.

I thought I'd share one of my favorite compound butter recipes with you. It's called Casino Butter and was originally a recipe I tore from a magazine probably a decade ago. I've since then modified it to make it my own. It's very easy to make, freezes well and goes with practically everything.
The ingredients are fresh and simple. Parsley, green onions, garlic, red bell pepper, hot sauce, white wine, lemon juice, salt & pepper and of course, butter. (Recipe at the end of the post)
Chop up all the veggies into a small dice. Don't worry if they're perfect because next they'll be going into the food processor along with the softened butter, white wine, hot sauce, s & p and lemon juice.

I do mine in two batches because I only have a mini food processor. But if you have the grown up version, by all means use it and save yourself some time.
I add them to a mixing bowl and blend them together with a spatula to make sure there is consistency with both batches. Next, I spoon half of the mixture onto waxed paper and form it into a log.
Twist together both ends and slip it into a plastic freezer bag. When you're ready to use it just slice off what you need and put the rest back into the freezer. It will keep for several months.
For the remaining fresh batch, I spread it on open faced french bread, topped it with grated parmesan cheese and broiled it until golden. This butter is also really delicious on any grilled meat, hot pasta or grilled vegetables. And as a side note, I've made it with and without the white wine and it's equally yummy and on occasion have used a small jalepeno pepper too. It's pretty fool proof and will make you look like a gourmet in the kitchen! Bon Appetite!
