Baconfest sizzles once again at Dell’Osso Family Farm in Lathrop

The second annual Baconfest filled Dell’Osso Family Farm in Lathrop with distinctive sounds and scents Saturday and Sunday.

The cured meat sizzling in pans was the star of the show, which featured other food, beer, music, rides and other attractions. Famed eater Joey Chestnut showed off his prowess, and contestants took part in cooking and other events. And (live) pigs raced.

Food Network star Jeff Mauro served as emcee, subbing for Adam Richman of the Travel Channel.
