Ep 10. Fight Club Sandwich

In Carnival Eats season 6 episode 10, titled "Fight Club Sandwich," host Noah Cappe travels to the Champlain Valley Fair in Vermont in search of the ultimate sandwich. The fair is known for its plethora of food options, but Noah is on a mission to find the perfect sandwich that packs a punch.

Noah's first stop is at the Magic Hat Artifactory, where he takes a tour of the brewery and samples some of their unique beers. He also tries their carnival-inspired pickle-flavored beer, which he is not too fond of. But Noah doesn't let that stop him from his quest for the perfect sandwich.

Next, Noah visits Chill-Ville, a carnival stand that serves up frozen treats. The owner, Andrew, tells Noah about his signature sandwich, the Ice Cream Grinder. The sandwich consists of ice cream, toppings, and candied bacon sandwiched between two slices of toasted bread. Noah is blown away by the combination of sweet and savory flavors and calls it a "game-changer."

Noah then heads to Hungry Mountain Co-op, a grocery store in the area, to meet with chef Sara who shows him how to make an incredible caramelized onion jam to add to his sandwich. With the jam in hand, Noah heads back to the fair to find more ingredients for his sandwich.

At the fair, Noah visits a stand called Wing Fling, where he tries their specialty wings. The owner, Tim, reveals his secret recipe for their sauces and marinades and helps Noah create a spicy wing sauce to add to his sandwich.

Noah then heads to a stand called The Cracked Egg, where he meets owner Maureen who shows him how to make a perfect fried egg to add to his sandwich. She also shares her secret tip for making the perfect hash brown in a waffle iron.

With his ingredients collected, Noah heads back to his kitchen trailer to assemble his ultimate sandwich. He starts by toasting bread on a griddle, then adding a layer of caramelized onion jam. Next, he adds a crispy hash brown waffle and tops it with a fried egg. He adds crispy bacon, sliced avocado, and a drizzle of the homemade spicy wing sauce. Noah takes a bite and declares it the "best sandwich I've ever had."

In addition to searching for the perfect sandwich, the episode also features a variety of other fair food, such as loaded tater tots, a maple bacon sundae, and a deep-fried meatball sub. Noah meets with the creators of these dishes and learns about their inspiration and creative process.

Overall, Carnival Eats season 6 episode 10 is a fun-filled adventure through the Champlain Valley Fair, filled with delicious food and unique culinary creations. Noah Cappe's lively, enthusiastic personality adds to the excitement of the show, making it a must-watch for any food-lover.
