9 Mouthwatering Foods At The Erie County Fair We Wait All Year For
The Erie County Fair only happens once a year and many of us diet for days (or weeks) leading up to it, just so we can indulge in our favorite fried foods. Whether you get your thrills on the rides or just from sampling the offerings from the food stands, one thing is for certain: nothing tastes quite like summer as the Erie County Fair. Here are our 9 favorite fair foods (in no ranked order).
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date. If you know of a local business that could use some extra support during these times, please nominate them here: onlyinyourstate.com/nominate
Let's start with the obvious, shall we? If you can go to the fair and NOT grab a fried dough, please teach us your ways of self control! This sugar-covered concoction is definitely a fan favorite fair food.
There's just something about fair fries that makes them so much better! From normal fries with vinegar and ketchup to sweet potato fries with honey butter dipping sauce, there's so much to love!
Feast your eyes on this delicious bourbon chicken available at the fair! We'll take a double order, please.
What would a Buffalo fair be without our favorite Polish dish? This beef on weck pierogi is like a Western New York polka party in your mouth.
Add some spice to your life with amazing stuffed peppers! This might not be a classic fair food, but that doesn't mean we don't love it just as much as the typical menu items!
We can never get enough of this summer staple item and, like most things, it just tastes better from the fair! Maybe it's the fact that you can smell the aroma of this dish from the moment you step in through the entrance gates, but sausage, peppers, and onions are a must-order at the Erie County Fair.
Basically anything fried will do, but these blooming onions never disappoint in the fair food department! Perfectly crispy, big enough to share, and you could even talk yourself into thinking they're at least somewhat healthy (because... onions).
It's not delivery, it's from the fair! The Erie County Fair serves up some of the best slices of pizza around. And don't even get us started on the calzones!
You're obviously going to need something sweet to wash down all of the delicious fair food. Fresh squeezed lemonade is the thing summer dreams are made of. Drink up!
We’re also partial to candy apples and cotton candy, but a list of desserts could go on for days! What is your favorite fair fare? Leave your picks for mouth-watering dishes in the comments!
