WHAT IS EGGFEST?

EGGfest is an event dedicated to the Big Green Egg Smoker/Grill. "EGGheads" (Big Green Egg Enthusiasts) travel from all over to participate and share in fun and festivities while experienced EGG cooks showcase their skills and talents with "The Ultimate Cooking Experience". Whether you own a Big Green Egg or just want to sample unique recipes from BBQ to pizza to baked desserts, then EGGfest is the event for you!

Most importantly, this is a charity event that directly benefits the Keystone Kops Unit of Springfield, MO. All net proceeds from the 2017 "Smokin' the Ozarks" EGGfest go directly to this fantastic organization. For more information about the Keystone Kops Unit go HERE!

Imagine a festival with hundreds of people sharing the love, passing out delicious food, and enjoying the party atmosphere! There will be amazing food coming off the EGGs all day, so it's a good practice to pace yourself and ask each EGG chef what makes their recipe special!

It's suggested that Tasters arrive between 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM in order to experience the "full" Big Green EGGfest adventure! Food will be coming off the EGGs continuously throughout the day, so there isn't necessarily a "peak time" for you to arrive. Regardless of when you show up, you'll soon learn why the Big Green Egg is often copied but never matched in culinary excellence!

TASTER TICKETS

Early-Bird "Taster Tickets" are available through September 10th.

Early Bird Tickets are no longer available but tickets can still be purchased online through Sept 29th or at the gate during EGGfest.

Tickets grant you access to unlimited food samples from cooks all performing special recipes on the Big Green Egg. Last year EGGfest had over 40 Cooking Teams and well over 150 Cooks all working diligently to perform their best recipes for the crowd!

Taster Tickets are purchased individually for $20 or as a pair for at $35, and also includes a freshly designed, Official 2017 Smokin' the Ozarks EGGfest T-Shirt with every ticket purchased before September 10th. Children 12 and under are admitted to the event for FREE!

Taster Tickets after Sept. 10th will be available online and in-store, but do not include an Official EGGfest T-Shirt. Day of the event admission is $20 per individual and will be available at the front gate. A very limited number of additional 2017 EGGfest T-Shirts will be available to purchase during the event as well.

Parking is available within the lots surrounding Outdoor Home at 882 W. Tracker Rd in Nixa, MO, and during the event we'll have event staff present to help assist you in parking your vehicle.

COOK AT EGGFEST

For an EGGfest to be successful, we need EGGcellent cooks. Cooking at EGGfest is an opportunity for teams to share recipes, enjoy great food and (most importantly) have a great time! This isn't a "high-stakes" cooking competition. If you like cooking on your EGG because it's fun and you've got some special recipes the world needs to EGG-sperience... then you'll have a blast cooking at our EGGfest. From 10:00am-4:00pm cooks will be showcasing their skills and talents by preparing their specialty recipes throughout the event. It's also an opportunity for everyone to sample others' food, share recipes, and "talk shop" with other Big Green Egg enthusiasts.

To register as an EGGfest Cook, download a Cook Registration Form and submit the form at our Outdoor Home retail location, by fax at (417-869-4447), over the phone at (417-374-3500), or send it as an attachment to aaron@outdoorhome.com!

EGGfest opens to the public at 10:00am, however, we ask that Cooks arrive no later than 8:00am to unload vehicles/trailers, and set up their cooking station.

5TH ANNUAL EGGCELLENT CHEF AWARDS

Back by popular demand, the 2017 EGGfest will again feature an "EGGcellent Chef Award" competition! As Tasters enter the event they will be given 1 vote to cast for the cooking team that they feel produced the best results on the Big Green Egg.

This allows cooks to prepare a variety of recipes throughout the day and demonstrate the versatility of the Big Green Egg! All cooks are encouraged to participate, there are no special requirements or ingredients, and the winners will receive a distinguished prize!
