Swan Creek and beer-fed!

Not on the payroll at Goose Island Clybourn (yet!) but some spring cleaning of the hard drive unearthed this shot from our visit there a few weeks back. Wished it wasn't hidden, because this was going to be included in that post.

What you're looking at is John Manion's new ham and cheese sammich. The ham is made from some of that "beer fed" pork from George Rasmussen's Swan Creek Farms, with some gruyere on top. Yeah, the other white meat is all the rage these days, but when you can score some damn good ham like the stuff Swan Creek's pigs produce, you savor every last bite.
