Now that you got your cheese fix, time to add the bacon!!! Last week down in the Islands I think I made the best sandwich ever!!! Fresh coconut bread from Art Cafe on Guana Cay with fresh picked tomatoes, avacado slices, Nueske Bacon and a balsamic glaze drizzle.
Nueske's Applewood Smoked Meats has been creating fine nationally-acclaimed Applewood Smoked Meats since 1933. Nueske's is located in the village of Wittenberg, Wisconsin and the Nueske family's original smokehouse still stands in front of our company store at 1390 E. G...rand Ave., Wittenberg. Nueske's is loved by chefs, restaurateurs, and foodies alike for its sweet, smoky applewood flavor and aroma - Nueske's signature, achieved by slow smoking over glowing embers of pure Wisconsin Applewood for 24 hours.

A bit of an update for our Dole and Bailey customers.. As you may or may not have heard, the Pemaquid mussels coming out of Maine were unavailable to us for the better part of an entire week of sales due to extreme weather conditions. We are happy to let you know mother nature has finally surrendered and the mussel bed...s have reopened. We have our supply back in stock TODAY and anticipate your orders. We apologize for the delay.

Happy Monday chefs! I’m sure business was booming this past weekend with folks losing their power and needing to get out of the house and fill their bellies with a warm, well deserved meal. Perhaps a little motivation is in order?
Every chef knows that one of the key ingredients to making food taste phenomenal isn’t on...ly the raw product.. It involves transforming and enhancing a euphoric food-eating experience through various applications utilizing different herbs and spices. Our source of dried spices and rubs come from D’Allasandro. You can’t beat their quality, their flavor, and most importantly, our price. I have chefs call me all day for various reasons, but when a chef’s sole reason for his phone call is to tell me that Dole and Bailey has the best prices on dried spices and seasonings compared to our competitors, then I know we’re doing something right.
They also supply us with dried fruits, mushrooms, grains, pasta, legumes, rice, and nuts. Check out the link to D’Allasandro and see what new and inventive ideas you can create with their offerings. Contact your sales rep now to place an order! Enjoy!
