Just had 3 cancellations so there are three spots available. If the first two dinners are any indication smoked prime rib and Templeton should make for a good time.

Thanks to all who attended the Templeton Rye dinner, was fun and interesting to do and, hopefully, delicious on the plate. Really enjoyed going out of the box and smoking coke syrup, pineapple syrup and infusing Templeton with coco nibs, the drinks designed by Michael Killmer of Templeton, who attended the dinner, were a highlight.

Speaking of highlights, I'll let the smoked prime rib with black garlic butter speak for itself.

The next Barn & Company Pitmaster dinner will be May 23 and feature Mikeska sausage, Tim Mikeska will be attending the dinner. I will post a menu and sign-up info next week.

This was my second Pit-Master dinner and may I say that the amount of food you get is just stupid, I actually had three meals out of this. If you can get on the list it's one of the better bargains in the city. Not only are pictures of my prime rib still dancing in my head, but I had some wonderful company to chat with like Louisa Chu, Barry Sorkin from Smoque and Michael Killmer

I'll let Gary's previous picture of the meat speak for itself, my crappy cell phone pics would not do it justice. The cocktails from Templeton were all pretty good, but my favorite was the second one served with the starters called Capones Bones. It had a good citrus profile plus the garnish was a piece of smoked pineapple that really picked up the smoke flavor and didn't skew sweet as I feared. The smoked coke syrup for the manhattan was also really good, but the drink was a little too sweet for my taste.

Kiba Chu had to wait outside for mom and guarded our prime rib from thieves.

I'm definitely in for the next.
