Chef Randall who is featured among the top 50 chefs in Joe Davids book Gourmet Getaways won praise for the irresistibly spicy flavors of his Sweet Potato and Smoked Sausage Bisque he served to a sold-out Five Chefs Dinner at the National Press Club in April. The secret to the success of his bisque, he confessed, was achieved by maintaining the sweetness and integrity of the sweet potatoes by baking, not boiling, them in their jackets.
Guests at the Loudoun Valley Vineyards grilling class will have an opportunity to enjoy his original recipes and cooking secrets, which he will highlight with a spicy southern touch.
Loudoun Valley Vineyards, a 20-acre wine estate eight miles northwest of Leesburg on Route 9, is owned and operated by Cameron and Bree Ann Moore. The August wine-food grilling event on the wine-producing estate will feature several personally handcrafted wines that Winemaker Bree Ann Moore has created, using some of the very same techniques mastered by the French to stylize their varieties.
