Just thought I'd share a few photos from my day at DizzyFest.  Unfortunately I did not get too many in-progress pics.  The crew at DizzyPig put on a good show.

1) Started the day the a Mexican Egg Casserole.

12 Eggs

1 cup (or so) Cheddar Cheese

Milk

Fajita-ish

Salt

Mix into a casserole dish @350 Indirect for about 1 hour.  Make sure a toothpick comes out clean.

2) Pineapple Head Punch

I did this one because it was cold and thought a warm drink would be appreciated.  It got lots of positive comments.

8 grilled oranges juiced

4 grilled lemons juiced

enough apple cider to round up to 1 gallon

2 cups sugar

3 tablespoons Pineapple head

Everything goes in a dutch oven and simmer for 15-20 minutes.

3) Asian Lettuce Wraps

Recipe inspired from http://www.annies-eats.com/2010/05/18/asian-lettuce-wraps/

We doubled up the filling recipe at made 5x the sauce.   We skipped the ginger and garlic and just seasoned generously with Tsunami Spin.  Went with Endive leaves for easier serving.

4) Filipino Pork BBQ

Need to circle up with the Mrs. on the recipe.

Thanks for posting, those tea cups were awesome!

I'm sure the rest were great as well, but the tea cups were the only ones I got to try.
