Default priming carburetor - better way?

My 57 Chevy's been sitting a while and won't start, so I figure the carb
needs priming, as it was in fine shape before. Is there a better way than
just pouring gas down its throat? I suspect in the many years since I last
primed a carburetor that something has come along to improve or make safer
the process, either a product or technique. Suggestions?
