We did it again!

[LA Pork Butt]

We did it again! We finished 4th again in our second Eggfest Celebrity Judging. It is not a head to head judging which means everyone is not cooking the same thing like ribs or Boston Butt. Competitors cook what ever they want. So, cooking creative things that the judges have limited or no experience eating gives you an edge, since they have little to compare it to. I think my cheesecake nachos and Pulled Pork Cubanos helped. I am already planning on taking my learnings to cook next year.

Congratulations Sunny, that’s great news!

Congrats Sunny! What are cheesecake nachos?

[LA Pork Butt]

It is a sweet and salty dessert. I use corn chip scoops, fill with a cheese cake type mix and top with a jalapeño fruit jelly like blueberry or strawberry jalapeño jelly.
Heat them for 5 minutes or so in a Big Green Egg until the cheesecake mix firms up and the jelly melts. I teased people these are best dessert nachos they ever had, because they never had one before.

Congrats. Sounds like fun.

[LA Pork Butt]

They really are fun events either as a cook or a sampler of foods from 11:00am-3:00pm. I have throughly enjoyed the ones I attended as a sampler.

So did 4 teams compete again this year?

I would compete but the required attention to detail derails any desire I can muster up.
