In the spirit of making it easier for folks who don’t want to do a lot of cooking, but still want to eat at home, the Zingerman’s Deli kitchen crew has started packing up marvelous, fully-cooked meals. You heat it up, sit down, and have fine dining in your kitchen with a minimal amount of effort on your part in almost no time. Dan, a longtime Deli guest testified that they are “very easy to order, with easy directions to follow for preparing the food, EXCELLENT customer service, and great-tasting food!”

With school back in session, and lives just generally busier than ever, Zingerman’s Deli has done the work of meal planning for a full three calendar months (or more!) of dinner. Kids’ soccer practice after school? Networking event or drinks with friends after work? Heat up these great meals on your schedule, without sacrificing full-flavored ingredients. Check out our full season of meals—we have dinner planned all the way till the end of January to fit into your busy schedules!  

Order your meals online, and then you can either pick up them up at the Deli or choose local delivery. When you get home, just reheat them in your oven, and enjoy! Andrew Wilhelme, Deli sous chef, says it’s “like having Zingerman’s as your personal chef, when and where you want it!” From the oven to the table in 20 minutes or less!  

From pork carnitas with Calabacitas con Elote and pineapple salsa, to a classic French cassoulet with herb-roasted fingerling potatoes and ABC Kale Salad, Zingerman’s Deli Dinners A Go-Go are priced at just $15 per person! Each one includes a main course and perfectly paired side dishes. You can add on additional items—soup by the quart, a pan of mac and cheese, desserts, drinks, and more. You will have to wash your own dishes, but it will definitely reduce your workload after a hard day on the job (or even an easy one, for that matter)!

Shared Deli guest Kathie, “The instructions were super easy to follow and all the food was perfectly heated throughout when I took it out of the oven. Portions were HUGE. I was stuffed at the end of the meal and still had leftovers to keep for the next day.” 

The Zingerman’s Deli Dinners A Go-Go Fall menu includes Portuguese Piri Piri Chicken (a long-time catering favorite!), served with buttered Carolina Gold rice and roasted lemon carrots. This dish will definitely have your whole family eagerly anticipating dinner!  An Amish half chicken, marinated overnight in a sauce of pequin pepper, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and sea salt, and then roasted ‘til crispy and tender. The local carrots are roasted in sea salt and cumin and then dressed in a lemony vinaigrette.

Another menu favorite is Jewish comfort food at its best: beef brisket! The Deli chefs take tender slices of beef brisket rubbed with garlic, marjoram, sea salt, and Tellicherry black pepper, and marinate it overnight in red wine vinegar, and then braise it to perfection. Buttery mashed Yukon gold potatoes drenched in house-made beef gravy and blanched green beans bathed in a garlic herb butter complete this tempting meal.

Zingerman’s Roadhouse, which has spent the last fourteen years bringing really good American food to Ann Arbor, ups its game in August—the restaurant will celebrate the diversity of cooking in US by welcoming two American culinary luminaries from opposite ends of the food world. One is a famous pitmaster, practicing a rare bar-b-que tradition, and the other is one of the most respected Jewish chefs in the country—both will create unforgettable menus for the restaurant’s popular Special Dinner series in August.

BBQ Special Dinner: A Meditation on Tennessee Tradition
August 8, 2017 at 7pm. $75 per person
Whole hog BBQ is a craft, and the mindfulness for perfecting the method is not gained overnight. Practicing a rare BBQ technique that only three people in the country can claim expertise in, Pitmaster Pat Martin smokes the hogs he serves at Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint in West Tennessee for 24 hours. The result is falling-off-the-bone tender, moist, smoky meat. Starting work every day at 5am, he and his crew make everything from scratch, and on August 8, Ann Arbor will get a taste of the treasured tradition. Pat will be on hand to share his passion for this long-time Tennessee tradition. Menu will include West Tennessee whole hog bbq, Redneck Tacos, Bar-B-Que Baked potatoes and much more.

Harvest Special Dinner: An Evening with Joan Nathan
August 28, 2017 at 7pm. $75 per person
James Beard Award winning cookbook author Joan Nathan, called the “queen of American Jewish cooking” by the Houston Chronicle, will be sharing stories and flavors from her brand new release King Solomon’s Table: A Culinary Exploration of Jewish Cooking from Around the World. Recipes from the new book, her 11th title, will be the centerpiece of the dinner, which will explore dishes from Israel to Italy to India and beyond. Featured dishes will include a Georgian beef stew, Indian Chicken, Tunisian Carrot Salad, and much more. Nathan will be signing copies of the book at the dinner.  The L.A. Times writes, “With a mix of deep historical research combined with personal anecdotes of her many friends, relatives and colleagues around the world, her book… combines Nathan’s celebrated knowledge of all things related to Jewish food with her accessible storytelling voice.” A University of Michigan alum with long time ties to both Ann Arbor and to Zingerman’s, Joan is excited to return to town.
