You want a show stopper of a Holiday dish? This is it. This is the messy-but-good decadence.
This was one of those magic moments of food bliss, when I first tasted it, New Years Eve 2000. I finally tried my hand at recreating it. With many thanks to Tom Kats catering in Nashville, who created this gorgeousness all those years ago.
Let's make it.
