Red Horse by David Burke Chefs and Sommeliers will guide you, blindfolded, tasting each course and pairing designed by Chef Burke to heighten the senses of taste and smell of the season. This immersive, social evening starts with a cocktail reception at 6:15.
The menu is a surprise!
Hint: close your eyes and think of the tastes and smells of Autumn

Casey Webb, quoted in Patch NJ by Carly Baldwin
(Casey is host of “Man vs. Food” on the Cooking Channel):
“Often, we are consumed by the surroundings and chatter at a restaurant. But when one of your senses is taken away you must tune into the others,” said Webb – NJ Patch
Casey Webb quoted in Patch NJ by Carly Baldwin
Chef Burke interviewed by NJ Monthly by KT Harrison:
Burke’s new M.O. is designed “to make the evening all about surprise and discovery. It’s really empowering to learn how much your other senses can add to a meal when you can’t see what’s going on.”
The reason, Burke says, is that “tasting without seeing refocuses your taste buds on flavor and texture. You sniff the food, explore its crispness or creaminess. Your hearing is enhanced, too. So is your social radar. You chat with your neighbors without knowing what they look like, which is very cool.”

David Burke and the Red Meat Lover’s Club invite you to an all you can eat and drink feast
We will be carving a 70 pound dry aged Pat LaFrieda Steamship and we will be serving meats en masse.
You will be greeted with an old fashioned and have as much beer as you can enjoy.
Chef David Burke will carve a meat mountain for the Red Meat Lover’s Club 1st NYC Beefsteak for Saving Jordan Ogman. The Secretary of Steak and Chef David Burke serve all the meats. Last one standing wins. All the beef, all the beer, all the fun will be had
Steaksmen & Steakswomen, we turn back that clock 100 years and beef.
Traditionally, 100 years ago, Beefsteaks with small groups of people gathering in rustic taverns or dingy cellars where, sitting on crates or stools, they would sing, tell stories, eat steaks, and drink ale with abandon.
OK, we will have beer and bourbon in a luxury setting instead!
No knives or forks were allowed. We will allow chopsticks but only one per person for stabbing the meat purposes.
Joking – we will have utensils.
This night we will consume meats and more meats….for inspirational purposes. Think torched slab bacon, grilled shrimp, pork chops served on the pass, steak on toast, MONSTER baked potatoes with enough butter to excite a cardiologist, and other items that will be spoken about in hushed tones for years to come…
…and a ton of beef.
In Red Meat Lover’s Club fashion we will have an incredible charity partner: Saving Jordan Ogman. As usual, 100% of all auction profits will be donated from the live and silent auctions and raffle.
So join us on October 10th at Park Ave Kitchen by David Burke to support Jordan, while participating in yet another epic, meaty experience from The Red Meat Lover’s Club.
Meet Jordan Ogman!
Saving the lives of Jordan and the other children with TECPR2 can potentially lead to breakthroughs for other neurodegenerative diseases of the brain. TECPR2 and many well-known neurodegenerative diseases of the brain – such as ALS, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s – are suspected to share a commonality of failure, impairment, and/or abnormalities of the autophagy process (the body’s way of cleaning out damaged cells in order to regenerate newer, healthier cells). It is excruciatingly painful to know that there is an autophagy impairment occurring in this sweet, 7-year old’s brain and central nervous system.

Chef John Thomas
20 years in the industry working with and for some of the bigger names including David Burke. Creating my company The Beastro, I have become a private chef and pop up chef where I have the ability to showcase the way I see food with the mindset of my clients. I didnt grow up with a nonna in the kitchen, who fun family food traditions (aside thanksgiving food fights) so when I took this seriously.. being a Clifton Passaic Paterson kid.. Cultural cuisine was everything… Being a metal punk drummer.. that attitude kicked in.

Burke, who got his start at The Fromagerie in Rumson, today has three restaurants at the Jersey Shore; Drifthouse by David Burke, Red Horse by David Burke and The Goat by David Burke.
Blurring the lines between chef, artist, entrepreneur and inventor, world-renowned chef David Burke is one of the leading pioneers in American cooking today. His fascination with ingredients and the art of the meal has fueled a thirty-year career marked by creativity, critical acclaim and the introduction of revolutionary products and cooking techniques. In the parlance of today’s celebrity driven culture, he is a rock star of the culinary world.
A graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and a student at École Lenôtre Pastry School in Plaisir, France. Burke worked with legendary chefs in France and New York such as Pierre Troisgros, George Blanc, Marc Meneau, Daniel Boulud, Charlie Palmer and Waldy Malouf. Burke’s mastery of French culinary technique and his unique American creativity were confirmed at the age of 26, receiving Three Stars from the New York Times at the River Café.
Burke was then chosen by his peers to represent the USA at The International Culinary Competition and won France’s coveted Meilleurs Ouvriers de France Diplôme d’Honneur. ​He subsequently won Japan’s Nippon Award for Excellence, and the Robert Mondavi Award of Excellence, all of which earned him a place in James Beard’s Who’s Who of Food and Beverage in America. Burke has been nominated twice for James Beard’s Best Chef and became a familiar face on the popular TV show “Top Chef.“ Burke is often a leading contributor to major news sources, such as ABC TV, Forbes, Fox TV, Bloomberg and more. He is also frequently called upon to play the role of event honoree, speaker, and judge.
