MeatWeek

Capital Spice has extensive coverage of Meat Week DC.

The most important event to us is the Meat Week Special Sneak Preview of Pork Barrel BBQ on Wednesday night at Mango Mike’s in Alexandria. This is important to us because we walk by the future site of Pork Barrel BBQ at least twice a day and the agonizingly slow pace of the construction is driving us crazy. We want our damn BBQ, already!

Fishinnards is working Wednesday, but I’m hoping to lure meatblogger Samer Farha to the event, so hopefully we’ll have a report for you on Thursday.

Happy Meatweek! How are you going to celebrate?

Southern Seders

Chow.com has a feature on Southern-style Passover Seders:

Children of Israel, come south. Marcie Cohen Ferris, author of Matzoh Ball Gumbo, wants to set you free from matzoh ball soup and gefilte fish. With her background in both Jewish studies and the Southern Foodways Alliance, she has combined Jewish traditions with Southern flavors for a delicious new spin on Passover. We’ve crafted this menu using recipes from Ferris’s book; make one dish or cook up the whole thing.

Corned Beef & Cabbage

This may be a day late, but I thought it appropriate to at least mention Corned Beef and Cabbage in honor of St. Patrick’s Day.  While some spoil-sports are apparently trying to back out of the tradition, here’s a nice recipe for the rest of us true believers.

Guinness Stout Beef Stew

I swiped this link from digg. Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day: Guinness Stout Beef Stew.
