gravy boat
Spouted serving dish
A gravy boat is a small, elongated serving vessel with a spout for pouring gravy or sauce at the table.
The shape—low, oval, with a handle opposite the spout—keeps the contents warm and allows controlled pouring: She ladled gravy from the boat onto her mashed potatoes.
Standard equipment at traditional holiday dinners.
