Hestia hosts the chef team behind Interstellar BBQ in its Lonestar Dinner Series, with fire-driven cooking and local ingredients.
Hestia brings in the team behind Interstellar BBQ on Tuesday, August 25, for the next installment of its Lonestar Dinner Series. It's a collaboration between Hestia's own chefs and the crew from Interstellar, and it runs from 5:30 PM to 10:00 PM.
The Lonestar Dinner Series is how Hestia pairs up with Michelin-recognized chefs from across Texas. The idea is a true collaboration rather than a simple guest appearance: the visiting team works side by side with Hestia's chefs, swapping techniques and ideas rooted in the hearth and in Texas barbecue tradition. The resulting menus lean on fire-driven cooking, local ingredients, and global influences.
That fire-driven approach is the common ground here. Hestia's cooking centers on its open hearth, and Interstellar brings the barbecue side of that tradition to the table. When they work together, the menu pulls from both—the hearth and the pit—with local ingredients and global influences shaping the final plates. It's less about one kitchen hosting another and more about the two teams building a menu from the same starting point.
