Come to MidEggLantic Blues N BBQ Eggfest in beautiful downtown Shillington, Pa. The birthplace of John Updike and the "home of the SmokinGuitarPlayer. While in the area, checkout "the Pagoda" that overlooks Reading, Pa. from it's perch on Mt. Penn.
What is "EggFest"?:
The Eggest is a gathering of the Big Green Egg owners, admirers, and dedicated Egg-Chefs (Eggheads). Its a chance to make new friends, eat some of the best food you will ever taste, learn some new grilling and smoking tricks,.... a big Egghead party! The Big Green Egg is the star of the show and we will have dozens of brand new Big Green Eggs set up for those that want to show off their cooking skills as well as a few Green Eggs set up for demonstration and for potential new Eggheads to check out. If you own a Big Green Egg or not, this is the perfect opportunity to come out and taste just how incredible (inFredible?) the food is when "Egg'ed". Big Green Egg sales reps and other "Eggsperts" will be on hand to demonstrate the capabilities of this great cooker. This is a culinary experience you will not forget!
Who will be there :
Many Eggheads from the Egghead forum will be in attendance as well as Fred and his staff, many local Eggheads and Egg users, and perhaps some special guests. There will also be some "newbies" and some "potential newbies" checking out the Egg and all that it has to offer. The Lil Ragu Blues band will be jammin, perhaps with a special guest on lead guitar for a few tunes. (the SGP himself!)
One thing for sure...the EGG (the star of the show) will be in attendance
*Coming Soon - OFFICIAL LIST OF REGISTERED ATTENDEES *
