KETCHUM, ID, UNITED STATES, March 7, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- 5850 Fest is raising the bar for après-ski culture with the debut of “Après Q,” a one-of-a-kind, open-fire BBQ experience led by Food Network star, restaurateur and the festival’s Culinary Creative Director, Tyler Florence. Running Monday, March 24 through Thursday, March 27 from 2-6 PM, Après Q delivers an indulgent après-ski atmosphere, pairing Florence’s fire-grilled creations with expertly curated wine, craft cocktails and après-inspired bites.

Located in Ketchum Town Square, Après Q offers an elevated take on après-ski cuisine, blending world-class culinary craft with the casual, celebratory atmosphere of post-ski revelry. The experience includes a rotating selection of signature live-fire dishes, inspired by Florence’s acclaimed “Masters of Fire” program. Mouthwatering menu items include: smoked St. Louis-style pork ribs, Santa Maria beef picanha, crispy pork belly with hot honey glaze and fennel pollen, black truffle mac & cheese, jalapeno corn bread with whipped honey butter as well as fresh pickles and delicious Kinzie Foods sauces.

“This will be next-level après-ski dining,” said Florence. “The energy of 5850 Fest, the magic of Sun Valley and the pure thrill of open-fire cooking — it’s a match made in heaven. Expect bold flavors, perfectly charred meats and a luxurious twist on everything you love about BBQ.”

“Great food for a great community,” said Brandon Kuvara and Jenny Dupre, Co-Founders of 5850 Fest. "With Après Q we are blending gourmet BBQ with the local après-ski culture for an experience that is all Sun Valley. "

Joining Florence in 5850 Fest’s Summit to Table program are Ana Sofía Fehn, a Costa Rican actress-turned-culinary influencer known for her globally inspired dishes, and Art Smith, Oprah Winfrey’s former personal chef and a Southern cuisine icon. Karen Akunowicz, a James Beard Award-winning chef and Top Chef All-Stars alum, brings her signature Italian flair, while PopUp Bagels, the award-winning bagel sensation, will serve its fresh creations. Finally, Chef Melissa Mauselle, a local talent and partner at the Sun Valley Culinary Institute, has been announced as 5850 Fest’s Executive Chef, bringing her farm-to-table philosophy to the festival.

5850 Fest is much more than a food festival — it’s a full-scale cultural event blending world-class skiing, entertainment and thought leadership. The festival’s music lineup features an eclectic mix of talent, including country legends Big & Rich, Barenaked Ladies and Sugar Ray, who will bring ‘90s nostalgia, Tracy Byrd, Tyler Rich, Annie Bosko and Josh Weathers add to the festival’s high-energy country music experience, while Brandi Cyrus will keep the party going with DJ sets from March 21-23.
