Chef JJ's Back Yard

I don't understand this place.  They held a special free dinner for social media people.  I came down with a virus and thought it better to stay home than attend the event.  They charges for $25 for cancelling a free event.  

I just bought a Big Green Egg and was looking forward to taking some of the cooking classes.  That will not be happening now.  I think I might just go to the dinner to save the $25 and try not to cough and sneeze on anyone.  Great way to run a business.  If I get anyone sick you can blame the restaurant.  Sorry in advance.

Just visited the 'Green Egg' for a sommeliers dinner.  They hype is true - this place is fantastic!  The environment is so friendly and everyone looks happy to be working there.  I love the touch of the tv screens so you can see the chefs working on the Eggs from your table.  The food was unbelievable and the wines and guest sommelier were great too.  I thought I hated grits until I had some served with shrimp - they were delicious.  I will be back to try their weekend 'box lunches'.  I also joined their wine club and will of course return for dinner soon.

Ode to Chef JJ's:
You have delicious meat goodness
Smoky, sometimes a bit charred, meat goodness
I'm in love with the Big Green Egg
and all of the goodness it brings.

We've been to Chef JJ's for a class. It was super fun.  Hands-on, tons of food, good company, easy to follow instruction.

We've also been to EggFest (and as a results purchased a Big Green Egg aka BGE). If you don't know what a BGE is, google it NOW.  It's a fine piece of work -- a charcoal grill that can cook meat low and slow, like a true BBQ place.  It can also get super hot, which makes it perfect for grilling pizzas, too!

So...back to EggFest:
It's an outdoor festival where everyone is cooking food on an egg!  Everythign from salsas, to pizza, to desserts, to veggies, to meat.  There was so much food we couldn't enjoy it all.  But it was all so very scrumptious.

Chef JJ's is also a retail store for everything you've ever wanted egg-related.  

Chef JJ, Cheff Jenna and the rest of crew are down to earth, fun loving folks.  We really enjoy this place and hope to make it to several more classes/dinners/events there.
