Indulge in a traditional feast featuring fresh fish, potatoes, boiled to perfection. Enjoy the warm ambiance of our farm while savoring this iconic Midwestern dish. It's a culinary adventure you won't want to miss!It is dusk in Lake County at The Ripe Choice Farm. A gusty wind whips a few leaves about the area. The dinner guests at the The Ripe Choice Farm don't seem to mind the falling temperatures. They are all outside, standing around a huge pot, filled with boiling water over a blazing wood fire or clutching mugs of beer and wine around one of the firepits keeping warm...or inside the cozy confines of our heated 100-yr old barn."What is a Door County fish boil, and why would I want to try one?"Mark and Tammy Lipps, owners of The Ripe Choice Farm, first enjoyed this experience on the Door County Peninsula in Wisconsin at the White Gull Inn, and want to recreate this unique for you. The Door County fish boil is a dining gastro-journey only found in Door County, and one that everyone should experience at least once. Most people who have tried a fish boil dinner make it a regular part of each visit to the Wisconsin peninsula. AND NOW, a regular event at The Ripe Choice Farm.A traditional Door County fish boil, like the one served at the White Gull Inn, features freshly caught Lake Michigan whitefish (West Coast Halibut) caught by local fishermen and cooked outside over an open fire, just as it was one hundred years ago by the Scandinavian settlers of the Peninsula. The fish is cut in chunks and cooked in boiling water with small red potatoes. Salt is the only spice used. The fish and potatoes are served with lemon, melted butter, The White Gull Inn's tarter sauce recipe and housemade Door County tart cherry pie for dessert. Our local craft beer from Kelseycreek Brewery will be on tap and we will feature a local winery (TBA) as part of your dinner. Included with dinner will be our Ripe Choice Beer Cheese/Cauliflower Soup and a seasonal green, locally farm sourced, salad.Part of the whole experience is watching the cooking process and mingling with other guests while enjoying nibbles, a beverage, music and a warm fire. The White Gull Inn's fish boil is one of the oldest, started in 1959, and certainly the most famous, having been featured in dozens of newspapers and magazines and on many television stations.This would be a great wintertime event to entertain out of town visitors and tourists to learn more about Lake County as a year round destination.Similar story to our local crab feeds. How did the fish boil get started? People have been boiling fish for thousands of years. Maybe the commercial fishermen who had access to lots of fish, and wanted a quick and easy meal. Churches and service clubs picked up the tradition to raise money, and people from all over would come to taste the local fish, potatoes and Door County cherry pie. Eventually the restaurants got into the act.A dozen camera flashes go off, as The Ripe Choice staff ease the pole through the basket of fish and potatoes and lift gently out to take to the kitchen."It looks good enough to eat." https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/f977bd70-18b4-11f1-ad5a-cbc13ca2151b-rimg-w1052-h740-dc030303-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/f9ca9860-18b4-11f1-b01b-df1d6c0f3c1b-rimg-w760-h740-dc482e19-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/fa0a3970-18b4-11f1-ad5a-cbc13ca2151b-rimg-w383-h740-dc191418-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/fa3eb6f0-18b4-11f1-8d33-7908ca91eca2-rimg-w1110-h740-dcbfa430-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/fa755750-18b4-11f1-b01b-df1d6c0f3c1b-rimg-w740-h740-dcd7d8d7-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/faabd0a0-18b4-11f1-8d33-7908ca91eca2-rimg-w513-h740-dcc5bbb9-gmir.jpg Agenda?: 05:30 PM - 06:00 PMTimelineInfo: Arrival, mingling, nibbles, favorite beverage, firepits ?: 06:00 PM - 08:00 PMDinnerInfo: Dinner bell at 6:00pm.
