Ford’s Garage Teams Up with Derrick Peltz for Breast Cancer Awareness
Sales of the MasterChef finalist’s Cali-Rocker Burger will support Susan G. Komen.
Fort Myers, FL, October 08, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Ford’s Garage has joined forces with local celebrity chef Derrick Peltz to create a limited-edition burger with attitude for a great cause. During the month of October 2015 only, customers can enjoy the MasterChef finalist’s exclusive creation, the California Rocker Burger, with a portion of the proceeds being donated to Susan G. Komen Southwest Florida in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month.
A Fort Myers native whose rock and roll success took him on the road before landing on season six of the cut-throat cooking competition MasterChef, Peltz drew on his experiences on the west coast as inspiration for the California Rocker Burger. Kobe beef is the star of this production, with supporting characters including avocado, caramelized onions, goat cheese, arugula and a zingy Cali-Rocker sauce. This is served on a toasted brioche bun sporting a cattle branded Ford’s Garage insignia and served alongside a heap of fresh cut French fries. At $14.95, this Kobe beef burger is a tasty way to give back to the Southwest Florida community.
Peltz said, “It’s got all the ingredients I love from California on a really good burger – the arugula, the goat cheese and the avocado. Then I put a little rock and roll flair on it with my Cali-rocker sauce. It’s fresh, it’s vibrant, it’s got a little kick to it.”
Ford’s Garage Partner Zak Kearns said, “It’s a natural fit for Ford’s Garage, with its Prohibition-era bootleg bar vibe, to team up with MasterChef rocker Derrick Peltz. He’s a down-to-earth guy with an edge, and this was a fun opportunity to join forces to do something good.”
