This is more like a deep-fried cupcake with a jell-o, center and I am into it.

Wait. What? Yes, all of this served up in golden flaky goodness. Fernie just cranks out the best of the fried fare every year.

A Texas-sized pulled pork slider for your Texas-sized taste buds. Served with a broccoli cole slaw, because you can't forget your vegetables.

6. Edible Cola

"Sip and bite" are the instructions given after ordering a soda that comes in an edible cotton candy flavored cup. If Mark Cuban likes it, then it must be worth something, right?

This is a funyun stuffed with pulled pork, cheese, pineapple, and bacon. Need I say more?

9. Fried Lite: Salmon Croquettes

Had a little too much breading for the day? These salmon croquettes are tasty and only lightly fried so you have plenty of room for all the french fries the come with.

10. Cookie Fries

These are a big hit this year, winning for "Most Creative." They're creative all right, and tasty as heck.

11. Injectable Great Balls of BBQ

The concept behind this idea is freaking genius: Inject the barbacue sauce into the ball so the outside stays crisp, instead of getting soggy from the sauce.

12. Deep Fried Cannoli Bites

Don't question what makes this like a cannoli — just taste the sugary goodness and slip into your deep food coma.
