SUMMARY:Pork & Mindy's Partners with Hephzibah in October
DESCRIPTION:Pork & Mindy’s celebrates National Pork Month by giving back to the community.  During the entire month of October\, the creative BBQ joint donates $3 for every 3 Big Piggies “sangwich” sold to Hephzibah Children’s Association.  Handcrafted by Executive Chef and Food network star Jeff Mauro\, the 3 Big Piggies “Sangwich” is the ultimate Porker – featuring smoked pulled pork\, crispy port\, Pig Candy\, BBQ mayo\, tempura-fried giardiniera\, lettuce and tomato\, on griddled brioche.  \nPork & Mindy’s is located at 1623 N. Milwaukee Avenue in Chicago\, Il  60647. \nPork & Mindy’s is a creative BBQ concept led by Founder Kevin Corsello and Executive Chef and Food Network star Jeff Mauro.  together\, they began shaping a vision for a brand that\, at its core\, would satisfy “the holdy grail” of experiences and do what food\, music and art has always done: bring people together.  Feeling homesick for quality BBQ\, Corsello dreamed of this “holy grail” and joined forces with long-time friend and Emmy-nominated Celebrity Chef Mauro\, turning this dream into a reality.  Just two Italian kids from Chicago who are happiest behind a grill or slow-smoker.  With one-of-a-kind flavor profiles using natural\, simple ingredients free of hormones and antibiotics\, Prok & Mindy’s meats are slow-smoked to create the perfect texture\, and layered with signature sauces and toppings\, creating sandwiches unlike anywhere else.
