Cochon555 Dallas promises to be a fantastic event featuring a half-dozen heritage breed pigs cooked or butchered by local champions of the good food movement. The event starts with 5 amazing chefs, Host Chef Christof Syré of Law at Four Seasons Resort and Club Dallas at Las Colinas, David Uygur of Macellaio, Bruno Davaillon of Bullion, Matthew Scott of Great Scott, and Josh Bonee of Fine China, in a friendly culinary competition where you, as a guest, get to cast [1] vote for the best bite of the day. There is also a live, whole-hog butcher demo and auction with Nathan Abeyta of Deep Cuts Dallas Custom Butcher Shop, the sister charity, Piggy Bank.
Each chef is hoping to earn your vote by 6:30PM to win their passage to Grand Cochon, the national finale where we crown the 2019 King or Queen of Pork. A guest once said, “You couldn’t pay me to sit down during the first 90 minutes. I can’t miss anything, it’s a pork marathon.”
