All I can say is WOW!! What an amazing array of entries and a record number of them. First off, a huge thanks to all the great folks who took the time putting together their entry and sending it in. The last couple TD's have been tough to pick a winner and this one is going to be even more difficult. Due to the large number of entrants we have decided to mix this one up a bit. In the Burger Brawl some of you mentioned that it would be nice if you were able to vote twice. Well, the committee listened and you're going to get that chance for this one. We are going to break the entries down into two different polls and every forum member will get to cast one vote in each of the two polls. Only one vote per poll though, not two votes in the same poll or for the same entry. There isn't a way to set that up. The two polls / two votes as of now is just for the first round of voting for this event. We will take the top eight entries from the two polls and post another voting thread to determine the winner's. In the second round to determine the winners, you'll get one vote, as has been the norm for these events. We will address this on an event to event basis going forward so please do not think (at least not yet) that getting to vote twice is going to become the norm. It just makes sense this time. A couple of other twists here so please pay close attention. First off you will not get to see the vote count until after you have cast your vote. Secondly you will not have the option to change your vote so please pay close attention to the entries and trust your instincts.
Now to the part everybody has been waiting for. Let the voting begin!!
#1) These pork spareribs were cut St. Louis style and smoked on my Kamado Joe using the seasoning I typically use for my New Mexico Red Chile Posole. I used the actual Posole sauce during the wrap phase of the smoke.

himself! Smoked on the Camp Chef Woodwind PRO for 3 hours before being wrapped for another 2 hours - These ribs maintained supreme tenderness, had a nice smoke ring with deep, rich flavor. Served for Memorial Day, there was no better way to remember the fallen than with these American beef ribs.

#8) McRib boneless St. Louis rib sandwich with a Korean Gochujang-pineapple BBQ sauce, Asian Cucumber salad and Asian slaw.

#10) Calling these " basic backyard ribs " Smoked these over memorial day weekend for the family on the Masterbuilt Gravity 560 ( did 4 racks, we all liked the looks of this one the best)
