Virgil’s Real BBQ is celebrating its 30th anniversary with a bold collaboration that combines indulgence and impact. Chef Shaw-naé Dixon of Shaw-naé’s House—named one of America’s 50 Favorite Places by The New York Times—and Chef Glenn Rolnick have teamed up to create Savage Fries, a towering plate of crispy fries layered with braised oxtail, creamy four-cheese mac & cheese, and Chef Shaw-naé’s signature collard greens. Available through December 31st, 20 percent of the proceeds will go to The Lotus Bridge, a Staten Island-based charity focused on pantry meals and classes on sustainable urban farming.
