FoodFlying for Food: The Butcher Block Edition
Matt Moore’s grandfather Abraham Samuel Dennis was in his early twenties while stationed at Kessler Field in Biloxi, Mississippi, serving as a mess sergeant in the United States Army Air Corps. As the fall season brought about a welcome drop in sticky Southern temperatures, so too came rumors which would soon deploy his unit to a base little known to most Americans. Trace Moore’s culinary roots by flying a Piper Cherokee in search of good butchers and food stories.
