Dumb food question from a poor mac n crackhead...

[Blue66669]

I NEED macaroni and cheese on a stick. Do they have it here at TRF somewhere??? Where can I find it???

[Mouse]

That would be fantastic wouldn't it?! Why don't they have this or things like this...I mean, there is a Highland Weekend and Scotland is the king of fried...anything. *see Anthony Bourdain: UK for a sample of these culinary delights*

Mac n' cheese... on a stick...
OMFG That sounds AWESOME! I think... I shall make it for camp!!!!
I don't think I've ever seen that out at faire... I may be wrong, though, cause I don't pay much attention to food signs out at the festival... I'll eat too much if I do. XD

they had it at Scarby, my granddaughter's favorite!

Well, I actually had it out at RenDezvous at MDRF. They call it Mac n Crack there, and I understand WHY! OMG ITS SO GOOD!!!! See, now I need to figure out how to do it. From what I gather, it's as simple as cutting up either refrigerated mac casserole (or using frozen mac), breading it, and throwing it in the fryer. Seems rediculously easy, and I MUST learn how to make it work. Oh yeah, and you better bet I'll be putting it on a stick...

They have had it the past couple of season at Scarby really good and easy to eat finger food.  There you get around six triangle pieces to a stick.

Great ............. now I'm starving.

I'm surprised my keyboard hasn't shorted out with the amount of drooling i've just been doing...
I can't wait for faire food. Yummmm...

The Canucks stole that from Texas!

Anything on a stick is the latest food craze.  Last year everyone wanted sliders (mini hamburgers) and now...if it comes on a stick and deep-fried you've got a money maker.  Deep-fried Mars bars are awesome too.  My favourite is still deep-fried zuchinni with a drizzle of lemon...mmmmmmmmm

Okay, now I have to play with the deep-fryer when I get to work tomorrow.  Chef is going to love me.

I dunno, Blue, I remember seeing it at Scarby but not TRF.

Still, I think you could do it as such:

Make some mac-n-cheese in the usual way

add an egg and some breadcrumbs until you can get it to stick together and form the shapes you want (like the wedges they have at Scarby)

Then dip in flour, then egg wash, then breadcrumbs and deep fry, preferably in one of those fry daddy things because I don't know how to deep fry in anything but one of those or a commercial fryer. (Rumor has it that if you heat a couple inches of oil in a dutch oven or sturdy pot, then stick a wooden spoon handle in the oil and if it begins to go nuts, then the oil is hot enough.) When the wedges turn golden and float, they are probably done. Drain on paper towels.

That's what I would do. Then skewer and consume. Might take a couple of tries to get perfect crackness, but I bet it works.
