Speaking of the BBQ area, why is there a BBQ joint outside of the usual area, all by its lonesome? Gone rogue? lol.

Competition was too hot?

i dunno but its a brutal spot for them.. its kind of a double edged sword

No one lines up for their shit, and in turn, they arent cooking anything.. so people walk up and theres like one sorry rack of ribs on the grill and they just say fuck it and move on

I tried Henry’s chicken earlier today and I left disappointed. The chicken was dry. No wonder why there isn’t a like up for it.

I’ve noticed this year more and more food stands are doing cash only.

They aren’t very spicey at all, but if you’re sensitive maybe it’s too much

The bbq is good, gator bbq brisket was killer and apperently you’ve gotta get the beef ribs not the pork from them. They were in high demand

Cash only - the easiest way to avoid paying tax to the gov. Not only that they still charge you tax which won't get reported.

I had gators brisket, beef ribs and pork ribs with bunch of buddies. Would go back just for them! Dont forget to get their version of mashed potatoes for $2 on the side, good portion.
I also tried their new beer this year from parallel 49 collabs with PNE, nice and light wheat beer much like hefeweizen. But you can only get them from the parallel 49 beer truck nowhere else. I think it is close to the market place / festive area

Anyone finding this years PNE a major disappointment from years past?
The exhibition this year was some lame ass wall paper back drop for photos/selfies. Not sure why PNE thought this was a good idea to attract people, the entire forum was dead as fuck too. It took no more than 2 minutes to walk the whole thing. The overall crowd this year was noticeably smaller too.

Oh man, we ate Henry's Chicken as well. I usually find their food to be somewhere in between decent and not good.. but this year it just sucked. $17 for a 1/4 chicken combo or $22 for a 1/2 chicken. They did load up the fries though.

Yea the additional exhibitions are pretty wack this year, the dinosaur thing and the selfie thing are no go’s for me. Haven’t gone into the history of video game display beside the forum there yet though

My wife is Part of the comittee which provides input on the PNE, def gonna have some input for them this year gotta turn it around going forward

selfie thing was a joke. video game thing is so hot and humid inside but I enjoyed it. they just reuse those dinosaurs you usually see at local events

but yea they the exhibits are a joke.

if your going to the knights of valor thing the first 15 mins or so is pretty boring

crazy long fries is the biggest hype this year. next to flaming hot cheetos corndogs.

Butter beer ice cream sounds gross but intriguing.

Speaking of pineapples...

Spoiler!
