Edmonton’s Don’ya Ukraine’s Kitchen has teamed up with Meat Smokehouse to create a limited-edition smoked brisket-filled perogy to support advancements in breast cancer treatment.

The partnership between the two local culinary entities began during a chili cooking event at the recent Canadian Finals Rodeo, where the two parties met.

After the event, Don’ya co-founder Janice Krissa and Meat sous chef Jon Hofmann collaborated to create the special perogy.

The fundraiser will begin with an official launch on November 7 at Meat, located at 8216 104 St. in Old Strathcona, and is expected to continue through January.
