Brisket King of NYC

Posted on by astrid

Food Karma Projects is happy to announce its first big meat event of 2012: A Brisket A Brasket returns on Monday, February 27th, this year renamed to Brisket King of NYC. We’ll be crowning the winner at a larger venue (Santos Party House at 96 Lafayette Street). After the success of last year’s subdued affair, we are pulling out all the stops with 10+ chefs and farms/food purveyors, including Edi & The Wolf, Chef Jessica Wilson with High Point Farms (Trumansburg, NY), Chef Joe Dobias, Murray’s Cheese, Hudson Valley Harvest (NY State grass fed beef), Chef Emma Feigenbaum, Chef Ben Granger of Bierkraft, Sam Barbieri of Waterfront Ale House/Fuhgeddaboutit BBQ, John Brown Smokehouse, and additional co-host Jimmy’s No. 43. More chefs TBA.

Co-hosts, Gastropolis editors (Annie Hauck and Jonathan Deutsch) and Jake Schiffman from Food Network Kitchen, will help add a new special feature to this year’s event: artisanal spirits tastings curated by Modern Distillery Age. Plans are to have 5-6 local artisanal spirits, including Catskills Peace Vodka, Dutch’s Spirits, Finger Lakes Distilling, and LiV – Long Island Spirits. Wine, craft beer and a cash bar will be available.

Of special note, “Brisket King of NYC” has attracted some of the top food authorities to serve as judges that will include Charles Granquist (Food Network special events), Cricket Azima (a judge at last year’s event), writer Rozanne Gold, Mark Russ Federman of Russ and Daughters, Joe Distefano (a.k.a. Joey Deckle), Rev. Ciancio from Idle Hands Bar/BurgerConquest.com, Robin Maii (chef/professor at Kingsborough Community College’s culinary department), and Peter Kaminsky (author of Culinary Intelligence: The Art of Eating Healthy [And Really Well]).

The event is VIP only, running from 6:30-10 p.m. and will include special Catskill Peace Vodka cocktails (a CPV Pickleback Martini Shot and a CPV “Bullshot” made with brisket juice from the event). A limited number of tickets available now!
