Grill Scene

Executive Chef Eli Collins noticed that he had all the makings of an awesome March Madness party at DBGB in New York City: A front "Bar Room" with TVs, beer and whole lotta sausages. So he's throwing a big party March 20, the Sausage Slam, featuring samples of all of DBGB's beloved sausages paired with beers from Bronx Brewery. He tells us about it, and offers his sausage expertise on matters like cooking and mustard selection, after the jump.
