A Feast for the Senses
On its sixth edition, A Chance to Meat is an authentic carnival of fire and flavors, where the incomparable scent of smoke beckons, and the joy of sharing a meal invites us to explore, taste, and delight the senses. Led by our local and guest chefs and grill masters, each live station will highlight the wonders of premium ingredients, graced by the touch of fire. From cuts like Tomahawk, bone-in short rib, and New York, to pork ribs, chicken, fresh fish, and seafood, we will honor each protein with distinct grilling techniques and preparations.
