Goober Peas: Boiled in Brooklyn is a joint venture between
Kate Burke and Chris Dial. A couple for almost a decade,
we first met while studying architecture at the University of Florida.
The concept of Boiled in Brooklyn is something that we have been talking
about for awhile. Both of us are from the South, North Florida specifically,
and have always loved a good goober pea. We moved to New York about
three years ago, after finishing grad school at Yale, and quickly realized that
you can find just about anything here except a fresh “green” boiled peanut.
In the South there is a long standing tradition of eating boiled peanuts roadside
and at outdoor events. Our love for Goober Peas and their association with good
times, friends, and summer is something we would like to share with the City.
Chris and Kate currently live in Cobble Hill with their dog Griff.
