Jesse Brookstein discusses Best of the Wurst
October 7 @ 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Culinary History Enthusiasts of Wisconsin (CHEW) welcomes Jesse Brookstein, discussing the rich history of sausage in Wisconsin
Every Wisconsinite knows that no tailgate party or backyard barbecue is complete without a grill full of sizzling hot brats. In Best of the Wurst, Jesse Brookstein embarks on a quest to show why Wisconsin is the sausage maker to the world. Brookstein travels the state to meet the people behind the links and captures the culture, craft, and quirks that make Wisconsin sausages unlike those found anywhere else. The result is big, bold, and unabashed celebration of a quintessential Wisconsin food. Books will be available for purchase and signing.
Jesse Brookstein is author of A Perfect Pair: The History of Landjaeger in Green County, Wisconsin and 910 Mayer Ave: Exploring the Legendary Oscar Mayer Facility Eight Years After Its Closure. He is the founder of Third Lake Sausage Shop.
