Culinary Competition and Tasting Event Celebrates Heritage Breed Pigs
Please join us Sunday, April 14th, 2013 - 4 pm VIP opening ($200); 5 pm general admission ($125)
The COCHON 555 event is 100% inclusive.
In 2013, as part of our Fifth Anniversary celebration, we will host 3 days of events. Make sure to check back or sign up for the newsletter to learn about these exclusive offerings including a "Chef's Course" Guest Chef & Winemaker Dinner on Friday, a special Producer's Reception on Saturday, seminars before the main event and private industry tasting on Monday in select markets.
COCHON 555 – five chefs, five pigs, five winemakers – is a one-of-a-kind traveling culinary competition and tasting event to promote sustainable farming of heritage breed pigs. The event challenges five local chefs to prepare a menu created from heritage breed pigs, nose-to-tail, for an audience of pork-loving epicureans and celebrated judges - one winner will advance to Grand Cochon.
Guests will be treated to an epic pork feast of seven whole heritage pigs from amazing chefs, wines from five different small wineries plus special tastings from celebrated food and beverage producers. New additions in 2013 include the streaming live cocktail competition called "Punch Kings" featuring local mixologists, our unique take on "Guy on His Buffalo" Cocktail Series, a special Mezcal tasting and the launch of the TarTar Bar. Everyone enjoys butcher demonstrations, interactive tasting contests, ice-cold brews, artisan cheeses, Rappahannock River Oysters, the infamous Manhattan Bar, a pork-spiked dessert, cold brewed coffee and to close the evening, attendees and local judges will help us announce the 2013 Prince of Princess of Porc.
The winning chef will compete against other regional winners at the finale Grand Cochon event at the FOOD & WINE Classic in Aspen later in the year.
