Hogs and Hams:Talk and Dinner
Sequatchie Cove Farm 320 Dixon Cove Rd, Sequatchie, Tennessee 37374
Hogs and Hams presentation is the story of a now lifelong passionate quest, in the classroom, on foot in the field and by the grill - for the most delicious pork and the ham possessing the ultimate of regenerative evanescent flavors.
Chef, educator, researcher, entrepreneur, and lifelong “hamthropologist” Bob Perry will share with us his findings from his research of breeds of hogs for growth, profitability, uses and flavors. Like a Sancho Panza he followed his taste buds, appetite and thirst for understanding from Kentucky to Spain and back in search of the perfect pig.
Come- join us: - - Bob will share his hog breed research findings and regale us with stories of his epicurean pilgrimage, and his encounters with farmer friends, four-star chefs and those heavenly creatures with their love of abundance -the pig. It will be a gastronomical, zoological, ecological, economic, and social-historical presentation all stewed into one pot. This dinner and presentation is for anyone interested in the pleasures of food and the rich lore of pigs, farm life and human civilization. (As a bonus Bob will share with us morsels of his latest work with paprika made from ubatuba peppers as a source of profit and pleasure for farmers and cooks here in the south.
