Omni Hotels & Resorts announces The Season of Smoke, a new month-long Omni Originals culinary series debuting at properties across the country on October 1. Guests can enjoy surprising, creative twists on classic dishes, desserts and cocktails that they have come to expect from the Omni Originals program. Using a variety of smoking methods, the extensive menu, which will vary by property, showcases everything from a cauldron of smoky baked beans and corn salad in a smouldering husk to a bacon bourbon brownie and grilled pineapple margaritas.

“We gathered more than forty of our food & beverage associates at the Culinary Institute of America in San Antonio for an immersive week-long menu development session this past July, tapping into the group’s varied experience and backgrounds,” said Vice President of Food and Beverage at Omni Hotels & Resorts, Devin Burns. “We’re excited by the menu and can’t wait for our guests, groups and local communities to sample our Season of Smoke creations.”

A variety of different smoking methods were used – including a plancha grill, a wood-fire oven, a caldron, burying ingredients in ashes, and more – to create the specialty menu, which plays with combining sweet and smoky flavors, and innovative dish presentations. In addition to the Season of Smoke menu, select Omni properties will have a signature On the Rocks Old Fashioned bottled cocktail available for in-room dining.

“We want to surprise our guests and show all of the different ways that you can use smoke in the kitchen, many of which they have probably never thought of before,” said Burns.
