Music City Food + Wine Festival is pleased to announce that Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint & Friends will return with an all-star line-up of some of the most decorated chefs and pitmasters across the country. Celebrated pitmaster Pat Martin will be joined by a host of award-winning chefs, friends and wine and spirits experts to cook and serve an interactive, live-fire barbecue and grilling feast on festival grounds at Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park (600 James Robertson Pkwy) on Saturday, September 17 and Sunday, September 18, 2016: http://www.musiccityfoodandwinefestival.com.
“Last year was so much fun we had to do it again! It was great watching folks experience the different cooking methods we use over live fire and seeing how much they enjoy the show of it all and most importantly, the great food,” Martin says. “The really cool thing is all of these methods can be done at home so hopefully, we’ll inspire folks to try new ways of outdoor cooking and grilling in their own backyards.”
Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint & Friends area will allow festivalgoers to see, experience and taste wood-fired ingredients that have been slow roasted, grilled and barbecued on-site over live fire using a variety of cooking methods paired with wine, beer and spirits. Throughout the weekend, Martin and friends will serve whole-cooked meat and fish, including hog, lamb, goat, swordfish, mahi mahi, duck and chicken, as well as sausage, oysters, trout, primal cuts of beef, brisket, coal-roasted summer vegetables, and other ingredients cooked slow and low.
Dishes will be announced via social media and on-site chalkboards as they are ready throughout each day; festival attendees can follow along using #MCFW. Martin and friends will dish out tasting-size portions on a first-come, first-served basis.
Under the direction of Martin, the interactive live-fire stations will feature a rotating cast of chef friends, including, but not limited to:
