Kent Rathbun, one of Texas’ most popular chefs and proprietor of Abacus, Jasper’s, Rathbun’s Blue Plate Kitchen and Zea WoodFire Grill, has announced the addition of a new product line to his namesake: Kent Rathbun Elements.
Rathbun will make a personal appearance in Houston to debut recipes using the new line as well as smaller cooking vignettes to coach customers on the art of grilling.
Having created some of the nation’s most talked about restaurant concepts, the James Beard-nominated chef and “Iron Chef America” winner brings his signature blend of flavors to the home cook with a total of 11 wet and dry products.
To launch the new line, available exclusively at Central Market stores and his restaurant locations, Rathbun will travel the state of Texas to each Central Market location with an 18’ smoker for a Texas-sized cookout.
Rathbun will be at Central Market, 3815 Westheimer, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. this Friday and Saturday.
The line includes a Steak and Chop Garlic Salt and the famous Thai Red Curry-Coconut Sauce (a.k.a. “Lobster Shooter” sauce.) During his visit to Central Market, Rathbun will focus on recipes using his new barbecue and grilling sauces in Ancho Chili, Honey-Teriyaki and Texas Peach. Each 12 oz bottle retails for $8.99. Recipes are available in stores and on www.centralmarket.com.
