Helmed by Chef Geoff Patmides, Salt Lake City’s Hog & Tradition BBQ concept is coming soon to Henderson, opening at 221 N Stephanie Street. The opening is announced on the restaurant’s website.
Patmides is making his Las Vegas debut with his barbecue concept, which features pulled pork, brisket, and chicharrón, burgers, Hog Fries (fries, pulled pork, bacon, cheese sauce, shredded cheese, pico de gallo, chipotle mayo, pepper jam, ruby sauce), and sandwiches like Brisket Grilled Cheese and the Smoked Cubano.
Patmides unusual journey as a chef was highlighted in a recent article by Gastronomic Salt Lake City:
“When Geoff Patmides started pursuing culinary arts as a career, he never would have imagined that not only would he be cooking Greek food but also Dominican dishes. Having mastered such dishes as spicy roasted peppers stuffed with the spicy feta spread tirokafteri and a Dominican-style smoked chicken, Patmides epitomizes the experiences of growing up in a family of blended cultures. Curious to the point of obsessing about learning to cook dishes from food cultural traditions around the world, he continuously builds upon his half-Tongan and half-Greek roots, which also were joined with his wife [Mia]’s Dominican background.”
In addition to Hog & Tradition BBQ, Patmides heads up Lamb & Feta, also in Salt Lake City.
Henderson will soon be able to experience Hog & Tradition BBQ’s distinctive barbecue flavors “with a little Dominican flare” when the restaurant opens in Trail Canyon Center, the retail center located on the northwestern corner of the North Stephanie Street and American Pacific Drive intersection. It also houses restaurants like Sushi Cafe Hibachi Grill and Fausto’s Mexican Grill.
