When Tiger Woods brings his 2008 Block Party to The Grove of Anaheim on Saturday, October 11th, two of the culinary world's biggest stars will be there to help him raise money and awareness for the Tiger Woods Learning Center (TWLC) - Mario Batali and Allen Brothers, the nation's premiere purveyor of fine meats. Add to this a performance by special musical guest Seal and you've got the hottest ticket around!
The fourth Annual Block Party is heating things up with a specially created three course meal prepared by Mario Batali. For this one night performance, Batali insists on only the best and that's why for this year's dinner he personally asked Allen Brothers to provide the beef for the main course.
As one of the country's oldest and most revered purveyors of high quality USDA Prime Beef, Allen Brothers brings more than 115 years experience to bear on a wide range of products sold directly to the country's top restaurants and consumers. For this star studded fundraiser, Allen Brothers is offering their world-renown Long Bone Ribeye Steaks which, under Batali's deft hands will become "Braciole Pinwheels." The robust flavor and juicy tenderness of these steaks will be further enhanced by the addition of fire roasted peppers, salted capers and delicate anchovies paired with a grilled potato spiedini.
"We're so thrilled we were invited to showcase our USDA Prime steaks at the Block Party. Working with Mario Batali, one of the country's biggest culinary talents in support of Tiger Wood's Learning Center is an unparalleled opportunity," says Allen Brothers President Todd Hatoff. "We are a family owned and operated company and so are intimately aware of the need to continue to support our communities with educational programs like the Tiger Woods Learning Center. "
To date, the Block Party has raised over $4 million for the Tiger Woods Learning Center and this year's event promises to bring even more sizzle. In addition to Mario Batali and Allen Brothers' mouthwatering creations, singer Seal will cap the evening with a musical performance featuring his unique blend of pop, R&B, funk and rock!
For food and music lovers alike the Block Party has the recipe for a stand out event. And Allen Brothers is primed to bring the best it has to offer in support of the Tiger Woods Learning Center!
