Book Signing & Cooking Demonstration with Celebrity Chef George Motz

Local Port Orange brewery, Dunes Brewing, will welcome celebrity chef, author, filmmaker, and restaurateur George Motz, for Books & Brews, a meet and greet event. The ticketed event will occur on Leap Day, Thursday,

February 29 at 4 p.m. This will be the inaugural Books & Brews event at Dunes Brewing where guests will be able to meet George Motz, receive a personalized signed copy of his "The Great American Burger Book," and two burgers per person prepared in a live cooking demonstration by Motz. Tickets are available now for purchase for $75 each at dunesbrewing.com/books-and-brews.

"George Motz has personally defined what it means to have a good American cheeseburger,” said Michael Benedict, Dunes Brewing, co-owner. “With this event, we look forward to bringing a once-in-a-lifetime culinary experience to our hometown and we are honored to be hosting an icon and cooking legend at our venue. This is going to be a great opportunity for anyone who appreciates a good burger, great beer, and face-to-face time with the king of burgers himself!”

George Motz is a decorated freelance filmmaker, author, photographer, chef, and restaurant entrepreneur. Motz’s recognition across his diverse portfolio of works includes an Emmy award and a James Beard award nomination, as well as recognition from the U.S. National Archives, The New York Times, and Eater LA, and appearances on "The Today Show" and "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon." The success of his second film, "Hamburger America," led to a book of the same name and a revised publication of his cookbook, "The Great American Burger Book." Motz also hosts a YouTube show, "Burger Scholar Sessions," and starred in and produced Travel Channel’s "Burger Land." Motz founded the Food Film Festival in NYC and recently opened a restaurant in Soho, NYC, aptly named Hamburger America.

Dunes Brewing is a coastal brewery in Port Orange, built on the historic dunes between the Atlantic Ocean and the Halifax River. The taproom offers the chance to sit back and enjoy the coastal lifestyle with rotating beers brewed in-house along with an assortment of wines, champagne, seltzers, snacks, and more. Dunes Brewing is the brainchild of co-owners Michael Benedict, Bobby Zitzka, and Chris Thompson, who dreamt up the idea about 25 years ago when they were attending the University of Florida together.
