Fantastic BBQ in Napa Valley! |
|
On your next trip to the beautiful Napa Valley, try BBQ at it's very finest! At the end of your day of savoring top-of-the-line wines, try authentic Kansas Style BBQ at the Napa Valley Marriott Hotel & Spa. This unique cooking blend comes straight from the kitchen of Chef Brian Whitmer, a widely acclaimed Chef who started his illustrious career in Kansas City, proceeding on to New York, San Francisco, Carmel, and Monterery (where his work contributed to a 'Restaurant of the Year' award from Esquire).
What sets Kansas City BBQ apart? Well first there is the sauce, which is both sweet and spicy, then the dry rub, which is full of secret spices, and then there are the pork ribs, which are the big, meaty variety called St. Louis, or spareribs. Other Kansas City trademarks are Whitmer's sliced prime brisket 'nd his smoky barbeque baked beans, which are loaded with chunks of meat. Chef Whitmer started his culinary journey as a teenager working the counter at Sammy's Barbeque in Kansas City, and while that was the last time he worked for a barbeque restaurant, his love for all things smoked and sauced has never stopped growing. Chef Whitmer's authentic barbeque recipes at his Character's Bar and Grill are developed from both Kansas City recipes as well as some from his own family.
Chef Whitmer calls his cooking "Comfort Que", - that welcome marriage of barbeque and comfort food. "We are a 'barbeque joint'," says Whitmer, adding, "a down home locals hangout where you can't help but relax and enjoy yourself while enjoying our 'Que". Whitmer enjoys growing local's support of the hotel's Character's Bar & Grill by offering his casual menu that showcases his Kansas City barbecue roots while offering other delicious menu options. Come try his unique BBQ in Napa Valley today - we are proud to offer the first official Kansas City BBQ dining experience in Napa!
