Date Night: The Bacon Class - Showcasing Nueske's Applewood Smoked Bacon

Have you ever tasted bacon that's been slow smoked over glowing Applewood embers? Bacon so rich with flavor you want to close your eyes and savor every last bite? There's a reason this is the ONLY bacon top chefs around the world will use in their kitchens. Come try it for yourself.

This class will showcase some of our favorite bacon dishes from a few different regions of the world. We'll start the meal by whipping up an Italian Panzanella salad with Bacon Vinaigrette, Gorgonzola Cheese, Tomatoes, and Fresh basil. Next up...we'll make a traditional Alsatian Pizza called Tarte Flambee- a white pizza loaded with Bacon and Onions. And finally, we'll end our meal with New England Style Seared Scallops in a Sweet Corn Puree, with of course...Bacon.

After graduation, Colton moved to New York City where he worked in several renowned establishments such as The St. Regis, Lespinasse, and Olives- Eventually landing the role of Corporate Pastry Director for Quality Branded Restaurants.
