This Sunday, Savor Scottsdale, the non-profit member organization supporting Arizona chefs, local farmers and sustainable agriculture, will host a five-course wine dinner starring–you guessed it–a prized pig. Notorious P.I.G. (props on the event name, Savor Scottsdale) will include dishes by five chefs including chef James Porter from Tapino, chef Aaron May from Sol y Sombra and Autostrada, chef Brandon Crouser from Atlas Bistro, chef Payton Curry from Digestif and Pastry Chef Tracy Dempsey from Spaghetti Western. Each chef will craft a reception appetizer and one of the five seated courses.

• Stuffed Trotter Salad with Maya’s Arugula, Sorrel, Pecorino and Queen Creek olive oil by Chef Payton Curry (Digestif) paired with 2007 R.R. White
• Red Wine-Braised Leg with Roasted Fennel Puree and Cured Jowl by Chef James Porter (Tapino) paired with 2006 Toscano
