Jefferson Eggfest Was Great

Spring Chicken · October 2016

This was the third Jefferson Eggfest and it turned out great. The weather was perfect, the things learned from the previous two Eggfests were successfully put into use, and the word-of-mouth advertising worked for the hundreds of cyclist's in town for the Burn Run, a fund-raising drive for burn victims.

In addition to the larger crowd, we had more registered cooks, most of whom were turning out some delicious food.

And we saw a lot of familiar faces among both groups.

Also, the Meet & Greet at the Carnegie Library was fun and the food outstanding.

Yes, I took a lot of photos and will likely put them together in some kind of video.

So if you are looking for some place to spend the second weekend of October 2017, come to Jefferson. You will be glad you did.

Yep it sure was a great one... Fabulous food, folks, and weather.

I have a few few pictures to post, mostly of my cook since I didn't get to walk around until things were wrapping up.

It was a nice time. The venue and weather both were gorgeous. That curry chicken was the very tasty.

You definitely got the attention of some people who were not familiar with curry flavored food, me included. That was absolutely delicious. Lots of people were talking about it.

It will be even more fun next year, especially if we can have the same weather.

NBC Channel 6 of Shreveport TX did a news event video of the Jefferson Eggfest. ( I hope the link works!)

Photobomb? I thought that was you signaling for help? Good thing Scott came to the rescue!

I didn't do anything. He had it all done by the time I got there. I did eat a bowl of the curry chicken. @caliking knows that stuff is my favorite.

It's a lot of people's favorite today. But you earned every bite of it for doing your magic on the scratches on his truck. Way to go.

Most definitely! I didn't think I would be heading home with those scratches taken care of. Sure did make my day

Thanks @Photo Egg. I love the pics that show off the vivid colors of food. I will admit that I sort of staged this shot as I added things to the bowl 1) so it would look pretty 2) so folks could see each ingredient of the marinade.

Could have been that too

. I'm probably going to go into serious withdrawal with the next TX fest being in March. I've already started planning my cooks!

Thanks to you for coming and asking questions about the Egg, the food and the fun we have serving it. As for the recipe for my Magnum Loads, I'll do you one better. Here's the movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZNjrp86KAs
