Slow Food Picnic at Gradek Ranch
ANNUAL SUMMER MIXER FOR SLOW FOOD NORTH BAY CHAPTERS
SUNDAY, JULY 22nd, 4 pm
Hosted by Slow Food Russian River
Join us at our Annual Summer Picnic Celebration with Slow Food members, guests and maywannabe members from Marin, Petaluma, Russian River, Sonoma County North, and Sonoma Valley.
The picnic will reflect Slow Food's commitment to a good, clean and fair food system and those attending will be folks who celebrate food as a cornerstone of pleasure, culture and community.
Food: Smoked Pork and grilled marinated chicken with homemade sauces. Also appetizers, side dishes and desert (potluck).
Drinks: Beer sampling and BYO. A local beer will be available for tasting. More on this in a next email.
About the Food: Our chefs for the picnic, Tony Ferrari and Jonathan Sutton from Hillside Supper Club (http://www.hillsidesupperclub.com/gallery), a couple of guys obsessed with fire, smoke and meat will be firing up the smoker for the pork roast and grilling the marinated chicken. And there will be a competition for the best... "Saucy Sauce" for pork or chicken. Best sauce wins a signed cookbook.
Picnic tables are next to the small lake, in the shade of some big beautiful trees. Bring your bathing suit and towels if you wish to swim (there is a changing room).
Our picnic will be a potluck (except for meat and beer tasting) which means each person contributes some dish to a common table for all to share. Please bring wine or other drink to share, also your own plates and flatware etc.
Scholarships for teens available. Contact Sueki.
