Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right.

Speaker 2 (00:00):
An hour ago, actually two hours ago, we were talking about,
inconceivable the State Fair deep fried foods. I rattled off
a long list that I thought was complete.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
I thought wrong, I wasn't correct.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Cameron has dug up even more State Fair deep fried foods,
and not almore deep fried, but the State Fair foods,
I should say, so, I mean we ran across some
really good ones a couple hours ago. You have some
other good ones.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
Well, so we went over the new foods. But I
don't think we've done the Big Text Choice Awards. Have
we That's correct, we have not. So let's go ahead
and look at the twenty twenty four Big Text Choice
Awards winners. So for the twenty twenty four Savory finalist,
uh huh, you had, and Craig, I want to see
if you're interested in any of these. You had the

(00:59):
Dominic for Tura dog, which is for toura cheese, Dominican salami,
which is of course deep fried with their famous corn
dog batter. You split it open, top it with garlic
plantain chips, their top secret Dominican sauce cilantro, and then
the Dominican Fratura dog. This not only was Savory Finalists. Craig,

(01:24):
this is the winner for best Taste Savory the twenty
twenty four State Fair Texas.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
I'm interested. It does have some interest for me. O
now it won over.

Speaker 3 (01:34):
This is a savory category one over the drowning Tiqitos,
which is hand rolled corn tortilla stuff with tender shraded
chicken deep fried. I mean, I guess we can figure
out everything's deep fried right at this point. So you
got Tanky cream sauce, jlipinos, guacamali salsa, lettuce, avocado, tamatia pico,
and katilla cheese.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
So everything on that one.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
And then say something is deep fried at the State
Fair Texas is from the apartment, the redundency department, but
go ahead.

Speaker 3 (02:02):
Also in the Savory Finalists, you have the Hippie Chips
potato chips not Joe's, with blue cheese, bacon, fresh green onions,
and some siassis.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
That sounds like something Linda would be all about. She
might be into that.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
Okay, hot chicken pancake poppers, this one has my attention.
Authentic Nashville hot chicken, pimento cheese. There you go, Toby Rowland, Yeah,
into a ball, don't get into peanut into pancake batter
and then deep fried and then topped with saracha honey
and some hot powdered sugar.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
See all that stuff kind of scares me a little bit,
the sch and the hot powders. Yeah, don't eat that
before your broadcast.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
And then the last, the last member of the twenty
twenty four Savory finalist category that lost to the Dominican
Fortura dog is one that I actually want to try.
Texas fried Burnt and Bombs brisket wrapped with potatoes, bacon, cheese,
deep fried it, top it with raspberry chipotle barbecue glaze.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Hm, yes, snow, Yeah, I think so. I like burn ins.
I get them every time I go to Kansas City.
I love a good burn in sandwich. Are just getting
burn ins? So yeah, all right, get to the sweet stuff.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
That's what you And this is the other one the
twenty twenty four Sweet finalists.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
Yeah, five options.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
Yeah, Nevin's Nunety Bar Alaska Okay, classic Nuinety Bar toasted
with marshmellow, two oreos, strawberry sauce in freeze, dried strawberry
pieces on a stick.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
I like it, you like it? Okay? I like it.
That's good. The other.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
Russo's cotton candy Bacon on a stick, Bacon candy bacon
on a stick of thick twelve inch piece of bacon
cook to perfection with a cotton candy glaze on top.
You get the strawberry pop tarts. Ben yet told fifth Ben,
it's a Beignet been.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yeah, because it has the Beignet stuff. Strawberry pop tarts
been a fel.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
Okay, I see New Orleans, New Orleans style of Beignets,
pop tarts, waffles all on a stick.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
Texas Sugar Rush pickles.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yeah, you get three cereals on a pickle slice Charms,
fruit loops and Captain crunch. And then the last one,
this one is a drink tropical two step punch. You
have fruit punch, citrus passion, fruit in mango flavored put
together both in alcoholic in non alcoholic flavors. So those

(04:29):
are your five finalists for the sweet and the winner
was the Russo's cotton candy.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
Bacon on a stick. Wow, the cotton candy bacon on
the stick.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
And the most creative was the Texas Sugar Rush pickles. Okay,
So there you go, Hey Sarks, This sweek too. Yeah,
I think you'll like any of those five. No, I
think you'll like that that one nutty bar. Yeah, I'm
gonna bring it up to him. I've got on the
show tonight.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
I'm definitely gonna bring you up. Bring it up to
him on the show tonight and see and see if
you likes it. He and you know what his answer
will be. It will be that sounds really good. If
we win, you'll put that big promise. If we win,
I might be open to do what they the way
they did it last time with the Deep Fried Oreos.
He sent somebody out, obviously, I don't know if it

(05:15):
was a student manager. They got some great stumnady. We've
seen him out of Pluckers. One of the managers I
think went out, you know, somebody, Sark. You know, they
probably had a bunch of tickets and he went out
and got that and brought it back in. Some of
the players opted for the turkey legs, some of the
corn dogs that stuff like Sark wanted something to satisfy

(05:35):
the Sweet Tooth other than the forty nine to nothing win,
which was pretty satisfying in itself. But I would think
that if they win, then he will probably.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Be up for something like that. I want to know
where the bird ends are going to be at. That's
what I want to find. See.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
That's also a challenge of the State Fair is finding
exactly because they're not sold everywhere all over the fairground.

Speaker 3 (06:00):
There's not really a good there's a not really a
good menu food directory to go.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
No, you have to just correct. Did you have you
ever ridden any of the rides at the State here?

Speaker 1 (06:12):
No? I have not.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
Do you like carnival rides? I'm okay without it? Okay, okay.
I have friends who are going for the big races,
so and I watched one last year. Might partake in
the second one this year? Okay, fun with that?

Speaker 2 (06:27):
All right, we will be back to wrap up today's
edition of the Programmer.
