Mahalo for voting Three’s Top 3 “Best Caterer” & “Best Food Truck!”
New Menu and Sushi Bar!
We are excited to announce a new menu, highlighting locally sourced ingredients and diverse flavors!
“This is our dream menu, the menu we have always wanted our guests to experience. We’ve always featured fresh local fish and Big Island beef, but now we are also integrating many other locally sourced ingredients into our dishes,” explains Three’s co-owner and chef Travis Morrin. “We also wanted to take our sushi to the next level by diversifying our offerings and adding more signature rolls. This turned out to be the catalyst for other new menu additions.” continues Morrin.
The new Three’s Bar and Grill menu begins with breakfast 7 days a week, featuring as many Benedict’s as their are days and what co-owner and Chef, Cody Christopher, has declared “the absolute best” huevos rancheros made using a century old secret recipe from Mexico City. Lunch is all about the new Upcountry Kale Salad and it’s delicious locally sourced ingredients. Dinner highlights include perfected “Three’s traditional ramen,” using fresh Iwamoto family noodles and a pork soy dashi broth thats simmered for 12 hours and the grass fed “Hawaiian ranchers 12oz prime rib” with Lahaina Town Brown Ale jus and whole mustard-garlic rub.
Raw bar is now served starting at 11:30am daily, with daily specials and sushi chefs who will make custom rolls to order.
Recipe of the Month: Three’s BBQ Ribs
Three’s BBQ Ribs
Prep time: 15min Cook Time: 4 hrs. Yield: 2 racks
Ingredients
2 St. Louis Style pork rib racks
1 Cup store bought BBQ dry rub or House made recipe
1 can Maui Brew Co. Lahaina Town Brown Ale or any dark beer
2 sheets of foil measuring 1.5’ X 2’
**Note: This recipe has been adjusted to better suite most home kitchens. Alternatively, smoking the ribs uncovered with hard wood, like kiawe at 185 degrees for same cooking time would be preferred for authentic smoke flavor.**
Procedure
- Lay out pork rack on sheet pan. Generously apply your favorite dry rub or use Three’s dry rub recipe. Cover all areas of rack and rub in. Place in refrigerator over night.
- Pull out racks. Pre heat oven to 200 degrees. Lay out each piece of foil. Place the racks in center of foil and pour half the beer on each rack.
- Carefully wrap up the foil on each rack. The idea is for the pork to slow steam for 4 hrs. and not to let any steam or air escape. A better result can happen when using a real smoking chamber!
- Place racks on sheet pan and place in oven. Cook for about 4hrs or until bone pulls away from rack easily.
- Chill down and cut into pieces. To prepare. Throw chilled racks over hot grill, to mark off meat and impart flavor. Brush with your favorite BBQ and place on low temperature side of grill or in oven until heated through. About 10min. Enjoy!
