Mountain Home, Arkansas - It’s that time of year again, time for the 33th annual m**h cook off!
Speed, crank, ice. No matter what you call it, crystal m**h is a favorite in many communities throughout Arkansas. And you can often spot m**h cooks bragging about their best batch on Facebook or at backyard cookouts. At the Mountain Home M**h Festival in Mountain Home, Arkansas, several layers of competition are present within the m**h community there.
Up on the stage, Carroll Sue and her aunt have almost finished the first batch of “shake and bake”.
“We’ll try to make sure we get enough samples for everybody to at least get a taste,” Carroll Sue says to the crowd. “I mean, you come to the m**h festival, you at least want to taste.”
the festival and competition will continue on through Memorial Day however if you’d like to enter the competition you must enter your m**h before Sunday at 5pm!
Samples are being handled by local authorities and must be turned in ASAP in person at any local police department before the Sunday deadline.
Samples will be judged based on the following:
(1) appearance
(2) taste
(4) longevity of high
(5) sample size (extra prizes for largest sample)
We hope to see you there.
