Eat the Heat
Eat the Heat was amazing. There was tons of great food from all of the vendors and we luckily had a booth right next to Saint Arnolds. They were kind enough to keep our glasses full with their full line up of brews throughout the night. We received many leads for the catering side of our business and hopefully earned some new customers for our trailer concept. Now back to our regular programming. We will be open at 5 tonight and we anticipate being busy as these next three days will be the premier of our new mini drive-in movie theatre. Along Came A Slider will be showcasing the crews favorite flicks for your enjoyment once a week. We are still locking down what day will be ours and will make the announcment as soon as possible. Stay tuned......

New Slider Special For This Week
While pulling up to Central Market to pick up our all natural meats and organic produce we stopped dead in our tracks halfway through the parking lot. What was that amazing smell? We then laid eyes on what was causing this intoxicating aroma to perfume the parking lot. They were roasting whole cases of fresh hatch chiles and we quickly picked up a bag opting for the hot over the mild to use for a special. We then picked up some organic cream cheese and it was all starting to come together in our heads. While picking up the duck, pork shoulder, chicken, brisket, and ground beef, we came across some beautiful bison which the butchers were more than happy to grind for us. For your enjoyment and for a limited time only: Roasted Hatch Chile and Cheese Stuffed Bison Sliders. We are serving these delicious morsels of molten goodness on our baked fresh daily buns with shredded lettuce, tomato, red onion, and chipotle mayonnaise. Get them while they last!
Preparation For This Week
We have a busy week planned. Off to Central Market to purchase our all-natural meats and organic produce then back to the kitchen to start on prep. We will be doing a special batch of our diablo duck this week in anticipation of good crowds coming to check out the drive-in movie theatre premiers for both the press and public later this week. We start with an all-natural duck and marinate it in Achiote for 2 days. Then we pressure cook it in olive oil until it is falling off the bone. The duck gets complimented with a refreshing honey mint slaw and topped off with a diablo sauce containing roasted garlic, mango, and habaneros, just to name a few of the ingredients. This is one of Along Came A Sliders personal favorites because we can't ever seem to eat enough duck.
