For Esquire, Luke O'Neil challenged Alden & Harlow's Michael Scelfo to create the "manliest vegetarian dish ever devised." "The result was a beet dish whose rosy rare color and spiced edges rolled in coffee, chocolate, and Urfa pepper match the color and charred exterior of meat. The accompanying carrots are slow-smoked then grilled, and served with crisped kale leaves, because, as Scelfo says, guys like fried stuff." [Esquire]
