What I'm watching before going to the pig roast
Today I'm taking it easy, doing laundry, reading, and visiting the fam.
Tomorrow I'm going to an all-you-can-eat pig roast at Bourbon Steak, the Georgetown's Four Seasons restaurant. Fanciness and messiness are going to come in equal portion. The menu looks great. Guests will:
…enjoy as much as they can of a 400-lb wood-roasted Berkawattabaw pig from Eco-Friendly Foods, served with both traditional and non-traditional barbecue sauces. Chef Varley will also offer a host of sides, including Barbecue-baked peanuts, Alan Benton's ham and cheddar biscuits, Country macaroni and cheese, Grilled corn with pimentón and blue cheese butter, and BOURBON STEAK bourbon bacon potato salad.
Guests can also taste one of Varley's winning creations for dessert, Porkeos (chocolate cookies made with lard and filled with whipped lard icing). Other pork-inspired sweets will include Pigalicious cupcakes and Maple bourbon soft serve with bacon sprinkles.
Before going, I'm catching up on the single best pig-based television episode I saw as a child. But you don't have to take my word for it.
