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

[Wolfden]

Head over to the Feasting section on the TRF website where they list all of the menus for the eateries. I did a quick look and, unfortunately, it is not listed. You might try the Friten Hausen when you get there, that is where they have done fried Snickers, Twinkies and Monte Cristos in the past. Most of the fried foods are first tried out at the TX State Fair. New this year, believe it or not, is fried butter.

Mmmmmm, fried butter!     I can feel my arteries clogging already!

Does that fried butter come with a type of dipping sauce? Perhaps bacon drippings?

[Laird Fraser of Lovatt]

You chase it with shooters of bacon grease... kind of lubes up the innards so everything just slides on through.

The image is..horrifying, and yet, I am hungry...It is official! Faire has desensitized me...HUZZAH! I have become, comfortably numb.

They have it at Scarby, I am so weak for that stuff! It really is amazing, they do not give you nearly enough for the 3.50 or something that it costs

The minute they get it at TRF Willow and I will be the first to know about. We have radar for that stuff! It does make me sad, but it is not at TRF.

It's actually very easy to make if you need a fix.

Make your favorite mac 'n cheese recipe (the cheesier the better!) and after it is cooked and you've eaten whatever you want to eat while it's hot, stick it in the fridge.  Once it is cold all of the way through, cut it into slices, then cut each slice diagonally into wedges.  Dip in an egg wash (a beaten egg and a little hot sauce is my favorite egg wash), then into bread crumbs.  Repeat.  Set on a rack for a couple of minutes in order for the egg wash to set up the bread crumbs.  Otherwise the breading will just break right off when you fry it.  After about five minutes, drop into heated oil and fry until GB&D (golden brown and delicious).  The coating will be crispy, the cheese will have re-heated and melted inside, and you will have ooey, gooey happiness.  Do not overcook as it will probably fall apart if you do!

Have fun!
