Skip the Barbecue Prep Work: Low Spark Fondue
During the winter, chef Meghan Chopus and her team focus on one main thing: fondue parties. The experience includes traditional cheese and chocolate fondue, with some surprising accompaniments that are perfect for après-ski. Once ski season ends, Chopus goes back to her private chef roots and offers everything from drop-off breakfast burritos to elaborate multi-course dinners. One of her most inventive offerings is the grill kit: a collection of fully prepped proteins. Think tri-tip steak, Sterling Wild Salmon and vegetable skewers that are marinated and ready to go on your barbecue. To accompany the mains, the kit also features savory sides, like Meghan’s “slutty” cauliflower mac and cheese and butternut and kale farro salad.
