Today’s show features some local folks who provide a great service to those of us who love to cook and eat!
Guy and Don Carey
First up is Don Cary from All Things BBQ. Don is the guy who invented the world famous Yoder Grill & Smoker…but that’s just the beginning. Don and wife Kathy opened All Things BBQ a few years ago and rapidly became the one-stop shop for literally all things Barbeque.
If you need an outdoor cooking appliance…how about a great selection of Weber charcoal and gas grills, the best selection in town of Big Green Eggs and BGE accessories, and of course Yoder offset smokers in every size imaginable. Fuel for your grilling…lump coal, hard wood, pellets you name it, they have it. Sauces, rubs, marinades, and seasonings…nobody has more. Every grilling accessory imaginable and if your thinking of an outdoor kitchen they have that too.
All Things BBQ – Where Barbecue Legends are Made! 615 West Douglas Avenue Wichita, KS 67213, just West of the circle in the Delano district. Get on the email list at www.atbbq.com or give them a call: (316) 440-3950
In the second half, I fly across town to Bradley Fair the new home of Cocoa Dolce and Beth Tully’s magic chocolate emporium.
Guy & Beth Tully
Beth and I talk about the latest and most rare of chocolates: Fortunato No.4 – a truly amazing discovery of an ancient coca tree thought long extinct but recently re-discovered in Peru. This is an amazing chocolate that is rich, smooth and deeply flavored with a finish that lingers. Probably the closet form of chocolate that was enjoyed and revered by the Mayans centuries ago…and it’s only available at Coco Dolce.
Cocoa Dolce Artisan Chocolates continues to grow and evolve right along with its owner. But the quality and uniqueness of the chocolates she creates are timeless, the culmination of one woman’s dream to bring unique flavor to her own life, and the lives of everyone who loves the sensual taste, texture and experience that is chocolate.
If you haven’t visited the Bradley Fair location, you must! Warm and welcoming, filled with the sweet aroma of premium chocolate, rich coffee, fine wine and more. You’ll want to get on their email list as well. Visit www.cocoadolce.com to learn more and sign up. Or better yet, stop by the store, relax and get a little taste of chocolate heaven. 2132 N. Rock Road, Suite 100 in Bradley Fair, Wichita, KS 67206
Good Life Guy’s Wine of the Week:
2011 El Cortijillo, Tempranillo from La Mancha Spain
Up front aromas of raspberry and cherry fruit, medium to light weight, Rhône wine in character, cherry fruit flavors, followed by bright acidity. Reminds of a mythical cross between a Pinot Noir and a Côtes-du-Rhône. Pleasant and fun, bistro red.
This is a new-age Tempranillo, young and fresh with sweet cherry bomb bright fruit. Throw convention to the wind and try this inexpensive everyday red.
Available at Jacob Liquor Exchange on North Rock Road
Want to taste it before you buy…for FREE? Stop by Homewood Suites by Hilton at the Waterfront this Saturday between 5-7 p.m., where my friend and fellow wino Casey Johnson will be pouring this wine and more. While your there, check out this great hotel…you’ll be amazed.
