Dangerously LONG Food on a Stick!! Minnesota State Fair Food!!

Calvin our next dish it's spaghetti on a stick well how would you put spaghetti on a stick you have a bunch of loose ingredients you have noodles meat but they've done it do you know how [Music] [Applause] [Music] so far the Minnesota State Fair we've experienced cooking on a massive scale it's gonna be rated C because it's about to get chronographic then Calvin and I took on the fair's most bizarre food combinations as a chef for 20 years this shouldn't work in my mind but it works at the state fair today it's all about crazy food Creations on the stick the Minnesota State Fair is famous for putting food on a stick I don't know when this became a trend but it did this year fenders proudly boast over 80 different foods on a stick they've gone crazy with a stick theme here you can even find a pork chop on a stick cheese on a stick spaghetti on a stick how do you put spaghetti on a stick we will find out soon enough Sunny now it's time for calwin and I to hit the streets you ready [Music] [Music] Calvin this is our first location of the day and this is a perfect breakfast because it's bacon the love big bad bacon has built over the last 15 years can all be attributed to one product a big fat quarter pound piece of bacon on a stick during 12 glorious days each year big fat bacon treats its patrons with the specially baked on a stick thick cuts [Music] 25 minutes in the oven followed by two minutes on the flat top turns the crispiness to 11.5 [Music] finally a shiny glaze of maple syrup and a Sprinkle of peppercorn and sea salt this thing is gigantic yeah I think two people usually split it in half and they eat their way to the center at the same time and it usually ends with a romantic kiss are you thinking what I'm thinking that we both eat our own exactly foreign [Music] that is a thick cut bacon but you still got some crispy bits in there there's a nice outer rind of fat but it's not overpowering it has a nice fat to beat ratio hey you have a nice fat to meat ratio too I do don't worry maple flavor goes perfect for breakfast it's oily it's greasy it's sticky there's one thing we're missing reaching on screen it's chocolate are you is this the day to be cautious what's happening let's bring it right bring it bring the 11. yeah good Kevin does not have confidence in this concept but I do let's go for it hmm it's a great contrast between these savoriness and the oiliness of the bacon and now this sweet rich chocolate sauce bacon pork goes so well with sugar oh please I don't want to be oh because I'm a pig [Music] the most icon food on a steak USA and in 1947 it became the first food on a stick introduced to this state fair 365 000. that is the average number of corn dogs consumed here each year but why go for an old school dog when you could have a mega dog [Music] when I first saw this I was wondering where the heck do you get an 18 inch sausage what they actually do multiple dogs one two three on top of each other the dogs are concealed with a thick layer of cornmeal batter then immersed in bubbling oil fry until it's golden foreign [Music] ER inside beautiful ready Crispy Crunchy corn dog shell on the outside yes the cornmeal is sweet has a nice exterior was crunchy and the color on it that is really good golden fry the shop behind us has been serving these since 1954. corn dog yummy yummy this one is their longest variation but there's a dilemma coming up the stick what do you keep doing at some point it's going to go through me Calvin I'll be a new co-host I know your plan now that I die and you take over the show I'm taking you out of my will immediately why did I just say in the event that I died Calvin takes over the best ever Food review show I'm taking that claws out you get my shoe collection instead the state fair is packed with edible Nostalgia but it's also a field for creativity and Innovation the Blue Barn is a sturdy player on that field foreign years this building has been a reliable destination for good old comfort food and their best seller happens to be on the stick here we have Nashville chicken on a stick have you ever had a national hot chicken before it's all the craze right now really yes tell me about it I don't know anything about it okay voice over Nashville hot chicken is fried chicken with a major cake from their cayenne pepper hot sauce at Blue Bar they start with chicken breasts marinated in buttermilk egg hot sauce and some secret spices once the breasts soak up all those zesty flavors they're coated with crushed Corn Flakes then on the skewer and in the frying pan then it's out for a slather of their signature Cayenne blend this chicken on a stick was first introduced in 2019 and they sold 37 000 portions at the State Fair this year it might be thirty seven thousand and two Boom the Corn Flakes really give a great texture and crunch Corn Flakes and not just a fine kind of powder on the outside it creates more surface area there's more crisp to Crunch on I admire people who choose to work with chicken breast out of all the animal parts it'd be easier to make something delicious and juicy out of pig brain than chicken breasts chicken breasts can be so dry if you treat it wrong yeah but it's been treated really well really well bit my mouth the chicken and a little bit of my mouth in one meal coagulate together becomes this new dish the studying Nashville Hot Chicken not bad recipe the midwest's anything on a stick Obsession can be traced back to this guy and his invention from 1927. this machine made frying smooth as grease [Music] soon fenders were free to shove sticks in and Fry up all manner of foods including our next Minnesota sweetheart hot dish hot dish is a famous Minnesota recipe basically green beans in a can corn in a can some ground beef cream of mushroom soup also from a can mix it all up top that with tater tots as tater tot hot dish here hot dish at the stick invented in 2002 a dish on a stick is a fascinating deconstruction of a hot dish a skewer loaded with a meatball a tater tot a meatball and a tater tot and finally another meatball dip that in cornmeal batter [Music] when it's ready you can give it a little bit of a dip in this this is cream of mushroom soup oh that looks nice it does smell like a traditional corn dog but this has a completely different filling I can't wait let's try it out the childhood right here on the stick cream of mushrooms soup as a dipping sauce is pretty hilarious usually it's Ranch something cool this is a war the next layer is a tater tot I think I enjoyed the pair of top with the pretty much the soup more more the tater tot with the corn dog coating it's a lot of carbon carb action but it's sweet and delicious I don't mind it no this is food number four on the steak we're halfway there let's keep moving you keep doing that I'm gonna pick it up our trash and then I'm gonna grab my other trash let's go picture this spaghetti but now it's on a stick [Music] ten years ago has made up their minds to defy gravity with this fun fair food angel hair pasta and ground beef tie the knot in a ball and settle down on the stick these meat lollipops are coated in breadcrumb batter then they get the sizzling treatment I'm starting to see a trend today everything is dipped fried and duck sticked penetrated like true spaghetti it gets a slather of marinara sauce and a Sprinkle of Parmesan cheese Sunny what do you call a fake pasta I don't know I didn't pasta it smells tomatoey fresh we're looking at a tomato layer a bread layer and then the meatball layer which has some noodles inside of it it's like Inception the movie it's like Inception the meatball oh man that was really good everything we've had so far has been that kind of corn meal batter I like it but you don't want it 42 times in one day this is a really different type of breading and it's almost like you're eating some kind of crust that you would find on a mozzarella stick with like oregano in their Italian seasoning so I like the bread all the flavors here scream Italian basil oregano garlic tomato you know for all the dishes we've eaten today this is the most freshest one because they use Tomatoes This is five dollars and you get a real authentic Taste of Italy maybe not authentic but authentic for the north you can't really tell it has noodles in there but the texture is nice not overly medium it's kind of a unique filler the noodles create a very airy texture to the meatballs it's not having a dense meatball this is quite light it is really good boom Italy on a stick an entire spaghetti meal this could be an entire person for a half an hour next there's an animal in this sausage you'd never find an old McDonald's Farm Bayou Bob's joined the fair in 1997 offering a taste of the Bayou that's America's Deep South the guy who served this to us his name is Dallas this is Bob here their menu is simple alligator every year twenty thousand pounds of alligator meat go through this kitchen to get deep fried sauteed or wrapped up in a sausage unlike chicken or beef most of the meat that comes off a gator comes from its tail that tail meat gets ground up and mixed with Cajun seasonings then stuffed in a sausage [Music] okay Jimmy Dean's breakfast sausage beautifully spiced I love the flavor tons and tons of Bayou seasoning here it doesn't go down like a greasy pork or beef dog it does have more of like a slightly drier chicken filler it is a very flavorful meat it has more protein but less fat or sodium than chicken here's the thing with alligators they look terrifying I had a big mouth big tail you could totally eat your head in one bite but when you see them like this it's like oh it's not so scary it's smiling look this next stick food violates the foundational tenets of four religions and seven Cults oh my God that's so heavy hold on I need that freaking crane to prop it up so this looks like a corn dog on stereoids or Illinois this is a Dilly Dog like a mutated corn dog that's had some surgical enhancements including pickle implants it all starts with a brat in the center now it's time for the pickle already that is enough I would have been like this is Extreme but let's try it and then they fried it after that to make it non-keto friendly for this usually wet dill rod to hold a forthcoming batter and must be dried a bit by sweating it out in a pickle warmer now it's time to fry oblong Oddity is one of the State Fair's top 10 foods in a good year they sell over 2 000 per day that is a lot of dilly dally you want to cross their arms oh no I don't listen yeah sorry oh I don't like that oh gravity is not helping me right now it's like this pickle lost too much weight and his clothes don't fit anymore to get off the stick then how is that a stick themed episode back on the stick the brunt has a nice Porky flavor the pickle has a nice Briny acidic flavor and then that cornmeal batter is sweet this is the perfect Minnesota State Fair food absolutely perfect it's fun dude you got like a pickle here and it's like oh is that just a pickle looks like no don't forget about me I'm here too I live inside the pickle hey guys what happens if he gets shot oh hey guys I gotta get going I'll talk to you later this one is fun fun with the capital f finally after seven foods it's time for dessert this is the most decadent over-the-top unhealthy food you'll find here or anywhere else what we're looking at right here is a pinnacle of sweet fried foods on a stick I've heard about them my whole life but I was too poor to drive all the way here and pay for admission even though I grew up an hour away very sad story this here is a Snickers bar wrap it in a pancake batter blanket and deep fry if that's not enough to make you reach for your insulin they also douse it with powdered sugar this is the ultimate guilty pleasure [Music] and caramel and caramel together in case in a pancake batter this sunny this is true let me when you look inside you can see the sticker it has just completely melted down all the ingredients are mixing and mingling together and then there's just a little bit of texture too you got the crunch when you bite it oh it's about to poop about the poop your hair is coming out the bottom there's some stuff you see as you walk around the fair where you're like there's no way that's going to be good it's just a gimmick this seems like a gimmick but when you eat it it is delicious this has withstood the test of time I may never eat another stickers the same way again Calvin today we ate eight different foods on a stick tell me which one was your favorite my favorite today has to be chocolate bacon on the stick oh the saltiness the care the chocolate really threw me off but man the best surprise of the day my run is the Italy meatball spaghetti on a stick very creative very light and very surprising but the one that blew me away the one I've heard about for over a decade the Snickers that has been fried it took my heart away it took my breath away and actually my heart rate's going up because of probably the insulin dump and betting moment best of enjoying our patreon and receive exclusive benefits a peace oh Liz this one is their longest variation the word variant is ruined for me now I love it but your classic it reminds me of the fourth grade and the story ends there and so is that chicken breast is this tilapia what is it about pretty much what is it about what is it what is it about yo dude it's our fourth location like not our 19th are you okay are you gonna make it would Gordy Ram what would that 40 would 40. well I'm good friends with Gordon Ramsay I never would have been able to come up with this over your Applebee's University levels yes I'm an apple buddy and after that I'm a flunky I went to the doctor he said I'm so badass he said I'm morbidly a beast a beast yeah guys that's it for this one I want to say huge thank you to my friend Calvin right here from the YouTube channel fknteliciousness is the name you can subscribe and follow him on all of his fun food Adventures that is it for
