Best of Hot Dish, June 21-25

Don't get iced this weekend...unless, of course, you want to.

Here at the Hot Dish it has been nothing but great food, cool drinks, and the brotherhood of man. Here are some of the best stories of the week, in case you missed them.

~Rob Barrett show us how to make cherry pie that is perfect for a hot summer day... because it doesn't require pesky baking. How in world do you do that? Find out here.

~ What is this Bros Icing Bros game that Rachel speaks of? It seems to Involve chugging a Smirnoff Ice , kneeling, and other such nonsense: Is the phenomenon a marketing ploy or just merely D-bag fun?

~Have you ever been at the bar when the Pedal Pub shows up and and a bunch of drunky drunks come in and talk super loud, and tell you they like your shoes? Well, image a whole fleet of them, crusing through Northeast at a feverish pace--this can be your reality on Sunday. Michelle Bruch gives you the scoop on the Pedal Pub races.

~Who doesn't love a road trip? Phoebe Larson bring us along to Miesville, Minn., home of the Mudhens for baseball, wieners, and boatloads of fun.

~Going to Gastro Non Grata's Vagabond Vacation on Sunday? Meet the guys behind the meat and music in our quick three-part interview with Michelle Leon.

~The national Bacon Takedown contest is coming to the Twin Cities in July, Rachel Hutton reports, and they're looking for local competitors. Think you can bring home the bacon?

This is the part where we tell you to have a great weekend. Go on, get outside, and don't forget to have fun. Peace out.
