Feed The Resistance: Sips & Slices!

Sips & Slices is a benefit for The River Food Pantry on Sunday at the East Side Club.  The idea behind the event is…local celebrities team up with local chefs, and each team comes up with a dish that everyone is invited to try, and vote for their favorite.  The theme for this year’s Sips & Slices is “A Tailgate Taste-Off” – so today, we did a little tailgating food!  I made Red Pepper, Fennel and Sausage Grinders!  The original recipe calls for Hot Italian Sausage, but because we’re tailgating in Wisconsin, I replaced that with Brats!  I have now made this recipe with both Italian Sausage and Brats, and I would say that is equally good either way!

‘Tis the season for not only tailgating, but also for Oktoberfest Beers – so Dee paired the Lake Louie Oktoberfest with the Grinders, and as usual, she nailed it!  The perfect tailgating combo – I now wish that we were in the competition this weekend!
