A Presidential Plate...

Greetings folks!  Hope everyone was able to stay nice and warm last week - luckily we Oconee-ans and Athenians skirted the snow-jam that poor, arrested Atlanta experienced.  And this week we come to you with more breaking news from the Piedmont....

Headline:  Piedmontese Beef Graces the Presidential Plate

From the Piedmont of Italy to Main Course at the White House - Piedmontese beef was served at the State of the Union Address Luncheon...an esteemed luncheon reserved only for select journalists and news anchors from the most notable news sources.  The menu that is served at such a luncheon is of course, the upper echelon of food quality and style...cuisine to make even the highest highfalutin connoisseur's taste buds light up like a pinball machine!  "...There is no better food on planet Earth than what comes out of that White House kitchen," boasted Shep Smith, anchor for Fox News, who apparently gives a recap each year of the menu.

And this year, it was Piedmontese Beef that made it's debut on the White House Menu...main course - front and center....

The Menu (Just in case you want to try it at home... :)

Winter Lettuces & Shaved Vegetables

Honeyed Pecans & Reggiano Crisps

Dry Aged Piedmontese Beef

Shallot Jus

Three Grain Risotto

Root Vegetables

Cara Cara Orange Tarts

Ricotta Sorbet

Not just for the Beau Monde...

Piedmontese Beef is rare and valuable...with an exclusive and unique history and quality.  It is most often compared to the illustrious Kobe Beef, for being the epitome of fine dining.  But, Piedmontese is not just for the glitterati and a politically weighted table - you can find it right here in sleepy Watkinsville and Athens area - available to you through on farm pick up, Athens Locally Grown, AND...

Breaking Headline:  Local Restaurant Serves "Presidential" Piedmontese Beef

Well, we may not have provided the White House with their Piemontese Beef (a goal to shoot for!) - but we are supplying Heirloom Cafe & Fresh Market with their beef!  So stop in and enjoy a "Will Burger" - named after our very own Willy P. and come Valentine's Day you can also find a sumptuous short ribs Piedmontese Dish!  And have it with a house crafted cocktail (as Hierloom just got their spirits license!)   You may even find me there serving beef and slinging drinks...now how much more farm-to-table can you get?  A burger named for the farmer, served by the farmhand at a favorite local, farm focused restaurant?  

Well folks, that's all for this week!  Don't forget to let us know if we can fill any beef and egg orders for the week!...&/or see ya at Heirloom!  :)

For the love of community and all things farming...

Your local farmers,

Will and the folks at P.o.R.C.
