The annual Thighs & Pies contest is not about how many pies you can eat before your thighs start looking like a pair of cellulite tree stumps. It’s actually about who can best satisfy a panel of three celebrity judges with their home-baked pie whose main ingredient must be grown in Florida. The contest (and picnic and live music too) get going on Saturday at the Barnacle Historic State Park in Coco Grove. And the thighs? They’re the fried chicken appendages from Sustain Restaurant + Bar, which, unfortunately, do not come with a Suzanne Somers’ approved Thighmaster.
