Third annual Athens Eggfest set for April 13
Staff Reports
The third annual Athens Eggfest is scheduled April 13, at the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center in Athens.
Participants will use ceramic cookers to bake, smoke, grill and serve everything from breakfast casseroles to pork ribs to blueberry muffins to pig candy.
Samples will be available for tasting.
Regular admission to the fisheries center will be charged.
Those who preregister will be allowed to taste for a $5 donation to the Friends of the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center.
Those who do not preregister can still taste by making a $10 donation to the Friends of the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center at the event entrance.
Both cooks and tasters may preregister at athens eggfest.wordpress.com/.
This year's theme is "Food's Better Outside." An Eggfest is not a cooking competition, it's a tasting frenzy accompanied by cooking instruction, organizers said.
