We’ve officially entered back-to-school season which means that summer will soon be coming to an end… Oh wait, we live in Tucson where it’s sunny and warm basically year-round. Here are some events to keep your mind off the fact that we still have a ways to go before we can pull out the winter wear.
Don’t forget, you can check out our Events Directory for a full list of Foodie events happening this week and other upcoming things to do.
It’s too good of a deal to not bring it up again this week!
Join Hacienda Del Sol Guest Resort for Whiskey Business. Every Thursday from 3 p.m. to close, guests can enjoy half-off Crown Royal (this week), $1 off all whiskey, and a savory specialty barbecue menu. Stop by between 5 – 8 p.m. each Thursday for a blend of live jazz and country music. Mmm… a brisket slider washed down with a Manhattan… sign us up! They’ll also be serving mac and cheese bites, chicken and waffles, shrimp corn dogs, and more.

Tucson Grill Masters has your license to grill this weekend at their Smoking 101 class. This is a great opportunity to learn and enhance your barbecue skills. This is a hands-on class where you’ll learn about different types of smokers, woods, charcoals, and common mistakes when smoking meats.
Learn to smoke:
Missing out on this class would be a huge missed steak. Literally. You will get to eat and take home all of your finished meats.
