Local Event
Join food writer, sommelier, and TV personality Stephen Satterfield and James Beard Award-winning Chef Ricky Moore, founder and owner of Saltbox Seafood Joint in Durham, as they craft a unique, multi-course menu for our second of three Gantt Golden Year farm-to-table culinary experiences.
This al fresco dining event takes place at Johnson C. Smith University, in the heart of Charlotte. The menu will be prepared with many ingredients sourced from Black Carolina farmers. We begin at 6:00 pm with an hour-long cocktail reception and then gather for our chef-led community dinner.
Satterfield is the Gantt Golden Year Culinary Scholar-in-Residence and hosts the award-winning Netflix docuseries High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America.
This event is for adults, ages 21 and older.
This series is made possible by the generous support of Wells Fargo.
Since 2007, Stephen Satterfield has devoted his career to redefining food and beverage as a means to organize, activate, and educate. He saw the need for more inclusive storytelling and a media company dedicated to food origins and culture from around the world. This led to the creation of Whetstone Media.
Before his career in media, Stephen Satterfield was a sommelier and social entrepreneur promoting wine as a catalyst for socioeconomic development for Black wine workers in South Africa. He is "one of the country's most respected food journalists" (Eater), and host of the critically acclaimed Netflix docuseries, High on the Hog. The docuseries is now in its second season.
