February 2017 in EggHead Forum

We decided to go with stadium food for the big game last night. It did not disappoint. Nachos, chicken skewers and soft pretzels... check this out!

Used a modified bagel recipe I got from Alton Brown. I don't have a stand mixer so I had to hand kneed.

Let rise to double.

30 second bath in water and baking soda.

Brushed on egg yolk with water and salted. Added jalapeño and cheddar to a couple of them and baked in the egg at 450 on a pizza stone.

Here was my Super Bowl sampler platter!

This is was a fun cook. A few steps, but really pretty easy with a great result. It would be fun to planwith different flavor combinations. Thanks for looking.

I'm a father, husband and a veteran and I love food. Cooking it, thinking about it and eating it.

Equipment: Large BGE with KickAsh basket and SmokeWare SS Chimney cap

28 inch Blackstone griddle

Kenmore Gasser storage unit/overflow cooker

Nice job! I made a few the other day, the first batch sucked. The second batch was good but the ones you posted look a lot better. I'll be doing pretzels again soon.

My egg setup was placesetter legs up, grate, pizza stone. Baked these on oiled parchment at 450 degrees. Baked about 18 minutes. I think.

Is that a cheese sauce too? What was the modification to the recipe?

Thanks! We thought so.

The cheese sauce completed the stadium feel. It was so good, I'd thank the chemist who made it if I ever meet him/her.
The only modification to the recipe I guess was hand kneeding for about 5 minutes, and the egg set-up as noted above.
