Austin Culinary Team at Cochon555’s Heritage BBQ Event

Recently, The Art Institute of Austin’s Culinary Chair, Chef David Holtzman, was invited to serve as judge at Cochon555’s Heritage BBQ event. The Art Institute of Austin is a branch of The Art Institute of Houston.

Additionally, the school sent a team of culinary students to work alongside notable, award-winning chefs at the event.  Heritage BBQ is a culinary competition featuring notable chefs cooking whole, locally raised heritage breed pigs with global flavors, and timeless cooking techniques. Each chef was given a 180 to 200-pound heritage breed pig to create six dishes for a crowd of pork-loving enthusiasts.
