Another wonderful experience at the Sausage and Beer Dinner at Blue Hill at Stone Barns! This year was the 10th anniversary, and there was some talk it might be the last. (And some talk that there would be a re-invention of it instead.)

I’m not going to describe each dish individually. Suffice to say that everything was knock-your-socks off delicious, and some things were life-changingly good.
