[Wandering Eyes]

New York Times best-selling cookbook author and content creator Joshua Weissman has partnered with Churchill Downs to help fans create the ultimate at-home race day celebration for the 151st running of the Kentucky Derby. Drawing on his Southern roots and fun, approachable culinary style, Weissman has curated a race day menu of dishes that blend regional comfort food with bold flavors, perfect for celebrating 'Kentucky Derby At-Home.'

“The tradition of The Kentucky Derby is unlike anything else, extending far beyond the racetrack, and I'm thrilled to help bring the spirit of the Derby to those watching from home this year,” Weissman said. “Preparing a spread for an event as legendary as the Derby can feel intimidating, but my goal with this menu was to craft a collection of approachable dishes that are both easy to make and also put a fresh take on classic race day favorites.”

Weissman has assembled easy-to-enjoy snacks and bite-sized Derby-inspired dishes with a modern or unexpected twist.

“Joshua's love for food, creativity in the kitchen and passion for entertaining his online audience make him the ideal partner to curate this year's 'Kentucky Derby At-Home' menu,” said Casey Ramage, Vice President of Marketing and Partnerships at Churchill Downs Racetrack. “The menu Joshua put together embodies the energy of the Kentucky Derby with adventurous takes on traditional offerings that will make any at-home celebration just as thrilling as the race itself.”
