Blues, Brews & BBQ Brunch: Agave Heritage Festival Edition

As part of the Agave Heritage Festival happening from Thursday, April 10 – Sunday, April 13, Loews Ventana Canyon Resort is hosting a special agave-themed takeover.

From 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. on Sunday, April 13, The Canyon Club at the resort is hosting a limited-edition version of its weekly Blues, Brews & BBQ Brunch — an agave-forward menu led by Executive Chef Ryan Clark.

Tickets to the Blues, Brews & BBQ Brucnh are $64 for adults, $32 for kids six to 12 years old, and $16 for those fives years old and under.

Seating is limited, so make a reservation sooner rather than later.

What’s on the Menu?

This special brunch will bring a unique and flavorful twist, featuring a selection of agave-infused barbecue flavors as well as live blues music, local draft beers, tequila and mezcal tastings, and a lineup of agave cocktails.

Mesquite items will include pork belly porchetta with an agave-jalapeño glaze, margarita-marinated rotisserie chicken, and grilled salmon with mezcal barbecue sauce.

The brunch’s seafood bar will feature a shrimp cocktail with a tequila cocktail and a mezcal-mango sauce, tequila-poached shrimp ceviche, and Hamachi, salmon, and tuna sashimi with a tequila-lime vinaigrette.

Desserts will also get an agave twist — a margarita tartlet, agave-pineapple upside-down cake, and tequila passion fruit crème brûlée. 

Agave tastings will also be provided by Patron Anejo, Tequila Ocho Plata, and Weber Ranch Vodka, while a limited-time menu highlighting agave-based cocktails will include a classic margarita, spicy pineapple margarita, and ranch water.
