I'll give you the UK Winter Wonderland but the others.....it all depends on what you define as a carnival, fair, or festival. All interchangeable to some extent but not exactly the same. It's all subjective and depends on the person you ask. Either way, thanks for watching!
Houston Livestock Rodeo BBQ Tasting (Rip-Off) One year my wife and I decided to check out what we believed was a sampling of the different BBQ from the rodeo. We paid the entry fee and walked into the area where row upon row of BBQ trailers were. We were all set to see what they had to offer. Disappointment came soon. Everyone of the BBQ wagons had a big sign “Private Party by Invitation Only”. We walked and walked going further into the line of BBQ wagons. Finally we came to one of Houston’s grocery stores that was giving samples. What did we get…. 1 piece of white bread, several slices of sausage and a little BBQ sauce on the bread. Talk about a rip off. Never again would I get suckered into the Houston BBQ Cook off. We could have taken the money we spent and went out to a nice BBQ place in town and enjoyed a meal.
I feel for you. The entry tickets essentially make this particular weekend pretty much a bust if you don't have an invitation to any of the private parties. I'm fortunate enough to receive invitations to several tents through work each year but as the years have gone by the quality of the food has gone downhill. But in their defense, what you experienced is the norm and a little research prior to going and you would have figured that out. As we showed in our video, the entry ticket does include a BBQ plate that most don't realize. It's not anything great by any means but it is offered. We skipped out this year simply because we didn't feel like overall it was worth the $25 per person just to get into the grounds. It was $20 per person last year......really? A 25% increase in just a year?! So yeah, we agree, better to just skip the BBQ and visit the Rodeo any other time outside of that one specific weekend. Thanks for watching!
This last November on Black Friday's sale Lowe's had their Pit Boss 1150 smoker/cooker for $500 discount off their regular price. They even gave me FREE assembly and delivery. I have watched countless videos on using it and have a pretty good handle on what to do. I have cooked pork buts, chicken leg quarters, hamburgers, vegetables and pork roast. What we don't eat we vacuum seal it and put it in the freezer. I would imagine many people will be disappointed when they go into the BBQ cook-off and leave disappointed.@@Kenshirokan
It's not the world's largest carnival. Ever been to Germany Oktoberfest? Or in the UK Winter Wonderland, and the Dusseldorf fair also in Germany
