SEAN AND SARAH: BBQ Couture

Wedding season is well underway and our team could not have been more excited to aid the ladies from Anje Soirees in the wedding of Sean and Sarah last week. Kansas City natives, the couple meant business when it came to the affair's menu. Bold cuts of meat, strong flavors, and a special BBQ sauce rounded out the menu for the 200 guests. 

"It all started with Gates Original," says Chef Brian Aaron who had the couples signature sauce flown in from Kansas City. "Once I was able to experiment with the unique flavor combinations in the sauce I better understood the couple."

Aaron, who explained that he wanted to give the couple a "taste of home" all-the-while incorporating Latin undertones so true to Miami rolled out the below menu.
