This Years Deep Fried Treats!
Sure, the rides and attractions are fun but everyone knows the best part of the State Fair is the food. Every year vendors compete to
come up with new and exciting foods to try, this year is no exception with some delicious options ready to satisfy your taste buds.
(Winner: Best Taste)
Fried Jell-O®
For the first time in Big Tex
Choice Awards history, America’s
favorite
childhood
dessert
is
given a State Fair of Texas twist! A
classic cherry-flavored Jell-O in a
panko-crusted breading, flash-fried
to perfection, and then dusted with
powdered sugar. Prepared with a
tasty topping of whipped cream and
a cherry garnish.
(Winner: Most Creative)
State Fair Cookie Fries
A unique play on America’s favorite
savory side dish. The cookie fry may
look like it needs ketchup, but don’t
be fooled by the classic crinkle-cut
appearance. Offered in traditional
cookie flavors like chocolate chip
or sprinkles, these sweet treats
are served with your choice of the
accompanying strawberry or milk
chocolate sauce.

Deep Fried Bacon Burger Dog
Slider on a Stick
A miniature, handmade seasoned
ground beef patty is stuffed with
shredded cheddar cheese, bacon,
and an all-beef hot dog on a
Hawaiian roll. It is then placed on a
skewer topped with a pickle, dipped
in a tempura batter and deep fried to
perfection. Every Bacon Burger Dog

with ranch dipping sauce.

Fried
Pulled
Pork
“FUNYUN®” Dings
A “FUNYUN,” the traditional crunchy
snack, is stuffed with pulled pork,

and bacon. It is then dipped in a
flavorful batter and deep fried. Each

sweet BBQ sauce.
Fernie’s Down Home Chicken Pot
Pie Pocket with Mac ‘n Cheese Dip
Savory cream sauce chock-full of
shredded roasted chicken breast,
tender diced white potatoes, sweet
carrots, peas, corn and a special
blend of herbs and spices, ladled
into fresh, flaky pastry dough and
then gently folded “hot pocket”
style. Served with a side of mac ‘n
cheese-inspired dip.
Injectable Great Balls of BBQ
Smoke-crusted BBQ beef brisket is
hand shredded with bock BBQ sauce
and molded to form balls. The ball of
beef is then breaded with seasoned
bread crumbs and deep fried to a
crispy perfection. Served on top of
a bed of coleslaw, each order comes
with its own pipette of bock BBQ
sauce to be injected into the brisket
balls.
Southern Fried Chicken & Dumplins
Juicy shredded chicken is mixed with
bits of signature seasonings, dough
and a touch of gravy. This decadent
mixture is then rolled into balls,
coated with bread crumbs and deep
fried golden brown! Served with fried
“biscuit bites” and a side of gravy.
