Pig Roast II at Haynes Family Farm – August 12, 2017

Saturday August 12th, a delightful summer’s day, found 79 members of the Cincinnati Bailliage and their guests once again gathered at the Indiana farm of Vice Chargé de Missions Clint Haynes for a repeat performance of the  Dine-Around Pig Roast and Silent Wine Auction.

This annual summer event brings together great friends, fine wine, and exceptional food while benefitting culinary students at Cincinnati State Technical and Community College through the Châine des Rôtisseurs Irwin and Barbara Weinberg Culinary Scholarship Fund.

As expected, the day’s center of attention was the pair of Berkshire hogs, expertly roasted for over twelve hours by Dan Morrow, an expert grill-master and guest of Mr. Haynes. Members and their guests spent the afternoon tasting their way through a wide array of hors d’oeuvres and member-provided wines. Later on, prior to dinner they were treated to Roasted Mussels and Grilled Salmon prepared by Chevalier Pat Gaito. Complimenting these two culinary masterpieces and the hot-off-the-grill pork was an assortment of classic summer salads prepared by Châine members.

Following dinner, the Silent Wine Auction featuring eighteen lots of premium wine, was a very busy place indeed as people continuously checked their bids, hoping to be the lucky final bidder. In the end, Bailli George Elliott announced that $4,575 was raised for scholarships and everyone in attendance expressed their satisfaction and gratitude for the Haynes family’s generosity and hospitality. Vive la Châine!

Welcome to the Cincinnati Bailliage of the Confrérie de la Chaîne des Rôtisseurs!

Chaîne Cincinnati includes local businessmen and women, doctors, lawyers, chefs, wine distributors and retailers as well as others in the food and wine fields. Our Bailliage unites professional and amateur gastronomes in a private, not-for-profit society committed to promoting the culinary arts and those of enology and hospitality through example, education and camaraderie.

As an example, we foster the development of the culinary arts among our community's promising chefs by contributing to the Cincinnati Freestore Foodbank’s culinary education program called Cincinnati Cooks. We raise money for this purpose by asking for voluntary donations from our members annually, holding an annual wine auction and having special fundraising events.

Additionally, the Cincinnati Chaîne is home to an active chapter of Société Mondiale du Vin, an organization dedicated to enjoying and learning about the world of fine wine and spirits. Over the last few years our members have toured internationally renowned wine destinations to further their understanding of those areas and their wines.

The Bailliage de Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Cincinnati is affiliated with the Confrérie de la Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, Bailliage des Etats-Unis (United States Chapter), which is associated with the International Headquarters in Paris.

Salut and Vive la Chaîne!
