San Diego 365 Dry Aged Beef Vertical Dinner | No Kid Hungry

As a pre-cursor to our 365 Day Dry Aged Beef Project culmination dinner in Austin with the Texas Beef Council, we thought we’d do a little test run on the beef. We pulled out 60, 90, 180 and 365 day dry aged beef from our project setup for an epic multi-course dinner to raise money for our Chefs Cycle for No Kid Hungry team.

We started the night with some Brut Rose from Champagne Pommery before the 25 lucky guests sat down for a meal for the record books. Watch the video recap from the night and see all of the dishes perfectly plated on Front of the House below!
