Might be your big chance to go lean on a dairy farmer to make exactly what you want. Rocky Point Creamery (4323 Tuscarora Rd, Point of Rocks MD) is about a month away from opening, and owner Chuck Fry means to make pretty much everything ice cream-esque to sell either at the counter or through the drive-through window. A fourth-generation dairy farmer, Fry's milk comes from his herd of Holsteins on the adjacent farm, so freshness won't be an issue. He's got a soft-serve machine in, and also plans to make hard ice cream with up to 14% butterfat. His recipe is Philadelphia-style (aka not custard), and that's about all I had time to ask about today when I stuck my nose in the front door. -
We crossed the river to VA through Point of Rocks/Rt 15. Driving back, we saw a little roadside stand selling kettle corn and barbecue. Catoctin Popcorn Company from Frederick runs the stands which also sell The Kernel's BBQ. I bought a bag of fresh (still hot) kettle corn and it was great. It is much puffier than prepacked kettle corn. The combination of salty-sweet buttery goodness was perfect. I also bought some cinnamon candied pecans but did not like the taste. They were cloyingly sweet and tasted a little off. While I was waiting for popcorn, BF was admiring the large smoker (large horizontal one on its own trailer) and bought some ribs. We ate the ribs standing by the trunk of the car. The ribs were very tender and the meat fell off the bone. There was enough char/smokiness without being dried out. We would definitely stop by again the next time we are out that way. I need some reason to go to Leesburg again soon.
