The New Year has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean the celebration needs to end. It’s the prime time to celebrate National Meat Month. Here’s some places to get your carnivore fix:
Baldwin Park
- In addition to a raw bar stocked with fresh oysters and extravagant paddlefish caviar, The Osprey Tavern (4899 New Broad St) boasts succulent craft meats cuts such as Vande Rose Pork Chops and Allen Brothers Beef Ribeye.
Winter Park
- Check out what’s smokin’ at 4 Rivers Smokehouse (11 locations including Downtown, Winter Park and East Orlando)—there’s a reason the Signature Angus Brisket is said to be the best in town! Prefer pork or poultry? Take a bite out of a Southern Pulled Pork or Six Shooters Stacker– cheese grits topped with pulled pork, slaw, pickles, jalapeños and 4R sauce.
- It’s not hard to see why Cask & Larder (565 W Fairbanks Ave) is a meatlover’s favorite gastropub! Cask & Larder caters to the adventurous palate with wondrous dishes like Braised Rabbit and Smoked Bone Marrow. For guests looking for simpler dishes, can enjoy Hanger Steak and Country Ham.
- It’s a pig party at The Ravenous Pig (1234 N Orange Ave)! Pork-centric offerings like the Pork Porterhouse and Tete de Cochon Board will elicit squeals of delight. For diners looking for less porcine options, keep an eye out for morsels like the Beef Tartare and Duck Confit.
- If you prefer to intake your meats in the comfort of your home, Swine & Sons (595 W Fairbanks Ave) has you covered! Offering both dine-in and take-out options, guests can enjoy Rib-Eye Hotdogs and a Country Terrine. While you’re there, grab an order of Swine & Son’s celebrated biscuits, the perfect side for any meaty dish.
I-Drive/Sand Lake
- Bring the meat month celebration to Taverna Opa Orlando (Pointe Orlando, 9101 International Drive #2240, Orlando, FL 32819), where the party isn’t over until the ouzo stops flowing.
- Treat yourself to an international twist on your favorite meats at Dragonfly Robata (7972 Via Dellagio Way)! There is no shortage of options for meat lovers, from Tontoro, pork cheek with a sesame oil dipping sauce to Gyu, certified Angus ribeye.
