Brunswick Stew over Carolina Gold rice

Three more "sets" to go!



Menu set three of five:

Pulled Pork Spring Roll with Carolina Mustard sauce and Wild Game Ravioli with Juniper Berry Mushrooms!

To answer the other questions: Yes, there will be auctions and door prizes to those who win them, but everyone will get a "swag" bag full of park goodies. In the past those swag bags have had everything from shirts and sunglasses to free tickets. It really just depends on what the parks bring to give out. We've got a lot of parks lined up this year that are adding new attractions for 2015 so I would guess the swag bags would be pretty heavy this year!

The deadline for registration can be found on the event flyer. The event flyer as well as the link to register online can be found on our website which is linked on the forum's homepage.

Are these actually items they are considering selling in the park? I feel like their existing food options (pre-Harmony Hall at least) were maybe a 4 out of 10 or so, and now they're saying let's just go ahead and turn it all the way up to 11.

Everything I've posted and the things I have left to post are all going to be available in the park based on what I've been told. The email said "food is changing big time this next year and the menu is a reflection of some of the stuff you will see."

I'm just gonna paste the Facebook update here to save my typing, lol.

We've already announced local Carolina cheese, Blue Crab Ceviche, Seafood Gumbo & Brunswick Stew, both over Carolina gold rice, Pulled Pork Spring Roll with Carolina Mustard sauce and Wild Game Ravioli with Juniper Berry Mushrooms.

Let's go ahead and add Sweet Tea Glazed Chicken with Cabbage & Beets, Shrimp and Grits, and Jalapeño Pimento Cheese Balls with cranberry jelly to the list as well!

It all sounds amazing.

I predict that those of us who are attending will be able to keep our healthy eating New Years resolutions for no longer than 16 days. :)

I will be there (weather permitting). I've never made a New Year's resolution, especially one involving food, because I know I'll never be able to hold true to said resolution :lol:

THAT'S what their serving at the park next year? :shock:

Are you sure this isn't for Dollywood? Seriously, I think this is the wrong menu. I'm so jealous of everyone going to the Winter Warm Up!
