So the girl I'm dating and I are cooking for a derby party on Saturday, and I've never cooked KY cuisine before, except one attempt several years ago at a derby pie that cooked unevenly. Ironically, we're officially in charge of the derby pie this year. I also want to make hot browns and beef tenderloin w/Henry Bain sauce. Does anyone have any advice or tricks of the trade to help ensure my success?

Marsha (zilla369) did her foodblog during Kentucky Derby Week. There may be some useful info in it:
"Foodblog: zilla369, Derby Eats, Derby Week: Louisville, KY"

And a releated discussion of some Derby fare:
"Kentucky Derby Party, What's Everone Making?"

You could also add a British dish for fun since the Queen will be attending the Kentucky Derby this year.
