Dixon, Calif. – Visitors of Sunset Magazine’s Savor the Central Coast event will get to enjoy an exciting cooking competition by four chefs from around the country. Executive Chef Vernon Morales from San Francisco’s Salt House restaurant will be using California lamb from Niman Ranch, processed by Superior Farms. Superior Farms is North America’s largest processor and marketer of lamb and thrilled to not only work with Niman Ranch on the project, but provide other products for the event as well.

The main event, held at the historic Santa Margarita Ranch in San Luis Obispo, Calif., provides foodies and wine connoisseurs two days to interact with winemakers, celebrity chefs, brew masters, fishermen, artisanal food producers, Sunset magazine editors and many more artisans and producers from Ventura to Santa Cruz who call the Central Coast home.
