Short Rib and Texas Shishito Pepper Hash at Craft Dallas.

Chef de Cuisine Jeff Harris’ menu at Craft Dallas converses with the guest, communicating an excitement about the recipes and beautiful presentation of finely cooked meats, seasonal produce and fascinating desserts to delight everyone in Chef Founder/Owner Tom Colicchio’s innovative and acclaimed family style commitment to haute cuisine.

Part of the conversation is paying tribute on the menu to the producers and growers who raise the fine proteins and all ingredients in Craft’s culinary approach.  It’s a recognition that creates a wonderful and genuine visual and connection in the guest’s mind with the farms and landscapes where top ingredients are carefully raised and grown.

Winn Meat Company is honored to be helping Chef Harris in his fine work with procurement of great proteins for such recipes as Wagyu Carpaccio, Roasted Capon and Perigord Truffle, Roasted and Braised Suckling Pig and Braised Beef Short Rib, and more.

Understanding the culture and work of the farm in producing fine ingredients is something Chef Harris gained growing up in East Texas working on his grandparents’ farms.   His work with Chef Colicchio started in as garde manger for Craft New York.  Chef Harris came back to Texas in 2006 to help open Craft Dallas at The W next to American Airlines Center and Victory Park, where guests from North Texas and all around the globe come to enjoy fine food prepared and presented in unique form and style of creating a meal together at the table from recipes that cultivate the craft of achieving the right balance of flavor, texture and culinary experience.

We salute Chef Harris and Chef Colicchio for their fine work in American restaurant innovation.  And for keeping the fine work of the producer in the conversation at the table, too.
