Dad's Day Chocolate Bar-B-Que

Our Mother's Day Brunch was this past weekend and everyone seemed to have an egg-cellent time (Thanks to Charlie for getting me in the mood of terrible puns all weekend long). Pics to be posted soon; check back in a few days.

In the mean time, the next Five Course Chocolate-Tasting Dinner has been floating around the the chocolatey depths of my mind for some time. Finally ready to be debuted, I've finalized the line-up of our Father's Day Weekend Chocolate Bar-B-Que. Guests to enjoy:
-
Chile-roasted Corn on the Cobb with House-made Cocoa-nib Butter
Heirloom Tomato-Goat Cheese Brulee with White Chocolate-Balsamic Drizzle
Bar-B-Que Baked Beans with Cocoa-Glazed Bacon (veggie option)
Cocoa Nib-Smoked Pulled Pork Sammie with White Chocolate Slaw (veggie option)
Milk Chocolate S’mores with House-made Vanilla Bean Marshmallow
-
There will also be an optional Grilled Artisan Sausage Platter to complete the meaty occasion. Custom made by local Knight Salumi, these babies will be from the same master-mind who brought us our Cocoa-Glazed Bacon this past Mom's Day Brunch.
-
Seatings are limited to 24 people each, and is available ONLY Saturday of Dad's Day Weekend (the 14th) at 11am, 1pm, and 3pm.

Everything sounds amazing! I've been wanting to check out your chocolate dinners. I'm a vegetarian though and I'm wondering what your veggie options are for the dinner.

Good question! Im working on a cocoa-rubbed grilled portabello cap for the sammie, and crispy shallots instead of the bacon with the baked beans. This should be a fun one. And the July dinner is going to be a focus on seafood (I havent told a soul yet!) so there might not be veggie options on that one.

Thanks! Sounds good. I'll have to check out the June dinner then!
