Carnivores Ball
Discerning meat eaters, Southern-style food lovers and smoked meat savants, this is the event for you.
Overview
Discerning meat eaters, Southern-style food lovers and smoked meat savants, this is the event for you. Possibly the only event where you can get all dressed up, sit down at a shared table and then chow down on some slow-cooked brisket, the Carnivores Ball is a delicious ode to all things meaty.
The ball comes after last year's events held both here and in Austin, Texas, with BurgerMary (Jess Pryles) curating three glorious Texan-inspired courses that all revolve around meat (yes, even dessert). With creations from some of Melbourne's best Southern chefs featuring on the menu, expect Rockwell & Sons' fried chicken and biscuits, smoked lamb and brisket from Silver Creek Smokers and a pork fat caramel doughnut with pork scratching and cinnamon sugar from Shaun Quade and Gavin Baker for dessert.
If the thought of three courses of meat has you a bit hot under the collar, we suggest you book yourself a seat (and a day to recover). The Carnivores Ball will be held on both Friday 4 and Saturday 5 April at a country-clad Ormond Hall.
