Grilled pork rib and sausage festival

Place: Scarlino Scalo (hamlet) in municipality of Scarlino, in Grosseto province, Maremma area

First year of the festival: 2008

Period: July or August

Original name:: every evening, from 7 pm

Local Specialties:

  • First courses - Tortelli maremmani
  • Second courses -  Carne alla brace, grilled meat; rostinciane, pork ribs; salsicce, pork sausages

It’s centered around a classic and popular Tuscan second dish, the ubiquitous grilled meat, this sagra; and the timing perfect, as there’s nothing better than an August dolce evening, to appreciate these deli!

Rostinciana, in some areas also known as rosticciana or costoleccio, it’s grilled pork rib. Sausages usually grilled are also often available in sagras and food festivals here and there, and we can’t but suggest both. Some other local specialties we’ll be on the menu, like the famous tortelli with meat sauce, as prepared in Maremma, southern Tuscany coast.

In short, another traditional recipe, not to be missed, if you find yourself near Scarlino.
