The Ninth Annual Chefs Event
Introduced by Kelly Clark - 9-10-11 |
Each week at the Carrboro Farmers’ Market you can spot many area chefs shopping from local farmers to load up on quality ingredients for their restaurants. Today, five of these local chefs and their helpers did more than just shopping at our Ninth Annual Chefs Event, a celebration of the partnerships between local restaurants and market farmers. On this special occasion, a group of chefs who regularly shop at market took over the market gazebo and gave market goers a FREE taste of what they can do with local ingredients.
This year chefs celebrated our country’s diverse culinary heritage as they served up samples of their own All-American favorites.

Market Manager Sarah Blacklin says, "Long time Market volunteer, Kelly Clark, created the Market's first Chefs Event nine years ago and it's become an annual tradition. With some of the country’s top restaurants right here in the Triangle, it seems only fitting that we highlight some of our most dedicated Carrboro Farmers’ Market customers, shoppers and advocates - our chefs! We look forward to tasting the variety of All-American dishes created by our top chefs and made with local farm-fresh ingredients."
Participating Chefs:
Dishes were: southern-style Peregrine Farms pimento cheese on black pepper crackers from Pazzo; deviled eggs from Watts Grocery; pickled Pine Knot Farms okra from Neal's Deli; tomato bisque and grilled Chapel Hill Creamery cheese sandwiches from Il Palio; pot roast with chow-chow from Acme. |
