White Trash BBQ 8/17/09
Now this one has my wife excited.
According to my wife, it is a known fact that NYC firemen are
some of the hottest men in the world and on Tuesday, August 25,
2009, you can come and hang out with the boys at the Fairway
Firefighters Food Face-Off. Before you let your imagination run
away, it's a grilling challenge.
Donning
aprons, caps, spatulas, and basting brushes, rather than their
traditional gear, hoses and axes, teams of NYC’S firefighters
will compete in Fairway’s Firefighters Food Face-Off, a grilling
“throwdown,” on Tuesday, August 25 at noon in parking lot of
Fairway’s corporate headquarters at 2284 12th Avenue at 126th
Street.
The firefighters will cook their best ribs, burgers and a dish
using a secret ingredient that will be unveiled at the contest.
A panel of judges, including Mitchel London, Fairway’s Chef de
Cuisine and Regina Schrambling, food writer extraordinaire, will
determine a winner and a runner-up.
The event will benefit the
FDNY Foundation which is the official not-for-profit
of the FDNY established to promote Fire Safety in New York City
and the professional development, training, and education of
members of the FDNY.
Fairway has a long-standing commitment to firefighters,
exemplified after the 9/11 tragedy, when Fairway adopted local
firehouses and supplied food for them throughout the search and
clean-up process and by the special shopping discount they
receive at Fairway’s five locations.
The public is welcome and will be treated to samples of all the
food prepared for the competition.
