Bacon on a StickSections 23, 123, and 230
It was a huge hit at the State Fair last year, so why not at the ballpark? Picture it: thick-cut Danish bacon on a stick, cooked crispy, then glazed with that Texas favorite, barbecue sauce, made with Dr. Pepper.

The third rotating Dawwg remains a mystery, varying from stand-to-stand, but the Taco Dawwg and Philly Dawwg could be contenders. Each trio comes with a side of Lay’s chips.
