After we finished up the Main Event, the Camp Bacon day-long celebration of all things pork, Cornman Farms welcomed the crew from the Zingerman’s Roadhouse in to host the Pig Pickin’ Dinner, a whole hog BBQ. The dinner was a benefit for Washtenaw County 4H, and our crowd of nearly 200 folks were only too happy to support young farmers and fill up on delicious pork at the same time.

Roadhouse Chef Alex Young served up the pig, and diners chose from three of his special house-made BBQ sauces to give it that extra kick. Traditional sides, and refreshing beverages rounded out this classic meal, and we all watched the sun slowly sink over the farm. It was a great way to finish up a wonderful day of friends, fun, and food.

Here are some photo highlights from the event:
