IS IT REALLY OX?

Of course, that famous
Ox Roast beef has always
been a part of the Fair.

Thirty-five hundred pounds of sirloin roasts are prepared in brick-lined
pits on the parish grounds that are
heated days several before the fair with a constantly burning wood fire.
The beef is prepared, wrapped in cheese cloth & netting, then placed
in the fiery coals, covered over,
and cooked for several hours
until done to perfection.
(You may still see the pits
smoking on the corner near
the Entertainment Tent).

The result is a delicious, slow-cooked Ox Roast beef sandwich or dinner
that melts in your mouth!

ENJOY!!!
