Southern Divas of the New South™ Host a Summertime Pig Pickin’
Saturday, June 10th @ 6pm
A pig pickin, also known as “rolling a pig”, pig pull, pig roast or, among the Cajuns of Louisiana, "cochon de lait", plays a significant role in the foodways and culture of the American South. It involves the barbecuing of a whole hog and is a favorite for large group and family gatherings, such as church dinners, family reunions, graduations, weddings, tailgating for football, and even at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Join French-trained Southern Chef Jennifer Hill Booker and James Beard Award-winning cookbook author Cynthia Graubart as they explore what the New South looks like through the eyes of two female chefs.
They will share their modern interpretation of this long-standing method of Southern cooking and celebration.
This menu for the evening will be:
• Pimento Cheese Stuffed Deviled Eggs
• Smoked Suckling Pig with Hot Pepper Vinegar & Bourbon Barbeque Sauce
• Baked Beans
• Creamy Coleslaw
• Sweet Potato Salad
• Pickled Peppers, Onions & Green Tomatoes
