Greensboro, NC – Southern Foods Meat & Seafood Solutions celebrated its 25th anniversary as a licensed distributor of Certified Angus Beef ® products at its fall food show. Sixty vendors and brokers as well as five prestigious local chefs gathered in downtown Greensboro at The Regency Room to provide an evening of culinary treats for Southern Foods’ customers.
“The Certified Angus Beef ® brand brings the highest quality, great tasting beef to our discriminating customers,” said Bill Mutton, president of Southern Foods. “This premium brand is a cornerstone of our company and we are proud to be its largest independent distributor in the Carolinas.”
Live social media feeds, a Beef Bistro Bar and culinary competition were highlights of the event. The culinary competition featured the talents of Winston-Salem chefs John Milner and Buddy Milner from Milner’s American Southern and Mark Grohman from Meridian Restaurant, along with Greensboro chefs Scott Pisula from Greensboro Country Club and Leigh Hesling from Green Valley Grill and Print Works Bistro. Each chef randomly selected a beef cut and created a dish for guests to enjoy. To complete their creations, each chef paired his dish with wines supplied by Mutual Distributing Co.
Food show guests enjoyed each dish and selected the People’s Choice favorite. The Milners’ Korean BBQ Sandwich and Hesling’s trio of meat pies shared top honors.
“All four dishes were unique and deserve recognition,” said Amanda Wydner, executive account manager for the brand in the Southeast. “We appreciate the dedication to quality showcased by these talented chefs and the team at Southern Foods. We look forward to working alongside Southern Foods Meat & Seafood Solutions to deliver premium beef to restaurant tables across the region.”
