Tillamook Presents: A Celebration of Pimento Cheese
To celebrate Atlanta and the culinary greatness of the American Southeast, Tillamook teamed up with Howard and Anita Hsu, the dynamic brother-and-sister duo behind Sweet Auburn Barbecue, and invited a roster of some of the city’s most talented chefs to showcase the pimento cheese in just about every way imaginable; from the Hsu family’s famed pimento cheese wonton that blends their Malaysian-Chinese roots with their southern upbringing, to pimento cheese cannolis with pepper jelly from Chef Joey Ward, savory pimento cheese cake from Chef Ron Hsu and more! Participants include:
- Ford Fry (King & Duke)
- Suzanne Vizethann (Buttermilk Kitchen)
- Joey Ward & Spencer Gomez (Southern Belle)
- Howard & Anita Hsu (Sweet Auburn Barbecue)
- Ron Hsu (Lazy Betty)
- Guest Bartender: Miles MacQuarrie (Kimball House and Watchman’s)
Tickets can be purchased here for $25 and include pimento cheese-inspired bites from all chefs; barbecue and sides from Sweet Auburn Barbecue; delicious Tillamook ice cream; three drink tickets for beer, wine and specialty cocktails from Miles; and a live performance by Ruby Velle & Trio. All proceeds will be donated to the Betty Hsu Cancer Fund and the Get Comfortable Fund from Creature Comforts Brewing Co.
