These wonderful chiles have a reputation for being a spicy game of roulette. Most of the chiles are mild, but every now and then…BAM!, you get a hot one.

One of our all time favorite appetizers featuring Nichols Farm squash blossoms. We stuff them with a smoked trout cream cheese, tempura-ale batter and fry them and top them with sweet chile sauce. I think it gives them a flavor reminiscent of crab rangoon.

Bagels have recently resurfaced for me as a trendy sandwich bun option. This is our inspiration from the delis of New York City in burger form.

We have been partnering with Middlebury Farms for years to supply us with the delicious green tomatoes used for this sandwich. Green Tomatoes have always had a special place in my heart. Growing up, my grampa, would pickle them with jalapenos directly from his garden. Secretly I love the jalapeno-dill pickled ones better than the ripe heirlooms available in later months.

This dish was inspired from the infamous Turkey and The Wolf sandwich shop in New Orleans. As a matter of fact we didn’t adjust much to Dukeify the dish since we loved the recipe so much. Thank you Mason Hereford!
Yes, we did use pigs’ head to make these delicious tacos. By using the lesser used cuts of the animal we help ensure that the whole animal is being used which eliminates waste. This isn’t just important, but it also forces chefs to use their culinary expertise to make these cuts taste so good. So don’t freak out. Give it a try. Your tastebuds will thank you.
