Charlie’s Burgers: Arctic Diplomatic Incident Dinner

Sunday, December 19th the Charlies Burgers dinner went down.  So much to digest - both literally and figuratively.  Three days of prep and an outstanding evening that rocked the house and left the guests wanting more.  Chef Louis the Great designed a menu that showcased northern fare and married it with the finest ingredients we could find in the south.

Why would we try to put into words the events of the evening when our friends Twyla Campbell and Steve Stacey have done it so eloquently on their blog sites.  Check it out and be amazed at the transformation of the raw ingredients to finished product.  Please find below some images on the ingredients in the raw.... then go to Twyla and Steve's blogs.
