Co-sponsored by TST Brotherhood and Sisterhood Warm up on a cold winters' night with a homemade meal, scotch-tasting, good conversation and a little friendly competition. Can you make a brisket better than anyone you know? Do you use Bubbie's top  secret recipe? Do you want to taste the difference between an Islay and a Highland or a single malt and a blend? Join old friends and new at the Brisket Cook-Off and Scotch Tasting. Enjoy a potluck dinner and desserts (dish signup to follow), wine, beer and non-alcoholic beverages, guided scotch tasting and voting for the winning brisket entry. Winners will take home prizes and coveted bragging rights. You don't need to make a brisket to join us, but you do have to be 21. Proceeds from this event will support TST Brotherhood's Jewish summer camp scholarship fund.
