Some like Super Bowl for the football. Some like it for the attractive players (ahem, Tom Brady). Many like Super Bowl for the commercials and the commercials alone. But to a few dozen people, Dip-A-Palooza is front and center on Super Bowl Sunday. The competitive dip-making contests brings in the best cheese dips, onion dips, jalepeno popper dips, cilantro dips, buffalo chicken dips, Snickers dips, curry dips - the list does on for miles.This year, the competition was FIERCE. There had to be over 30 dips in total! We made Queso Blanco (thanks for the recipe, Steph!), which was very tasty, but by no means a winner. But even more impressive was the presentation of winners - Aaron impressed us all with his suit, top hat, booming music and scripted performance as he revealed the winners of Dip-A-Palooza VIII, one of the founding fathers himself (and wife!), Chris and Chrissy Barrows. It was well-deserved. Congrats, you two.
P.S. Past DAP posts.
DAPers. Many new faces this year, but still many old.
I was honored to be able to help tally the votes!
Aaron kept the crowd in suspense for a full minute before opening the envelope to reveal the winner.
Victory for the Barrows' - waving the flag and raising the DAP plaque!
The queso blanco. There is a whole lot of American White Cheese in this sucker. Healthy? No. Delicious? Yes.
YUM! That is all.
