Chef Tony creates a Sweet Carolina Blonde Smoked Tenderloin Arugula Salad with some amazing summer colors and a whole lot of flavor thanks to Derek Wolf's new beer-infused blends.
Derek Wolf's Sweet Carolina Blonde is an ode to Eastern Carolina's Mop Sauce; this beer-infused blend packs tang, sweet and heat all in one with flavors of apple cider vinegar, chile powder, cayenne, brown sugar, and more.
