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 for Poll 2 in the first round!!
#12) Fire roasted beef back ribs and CSR ribs (country style ribs) fire roasted on the spit. Beef ribs then braised and plated with mashed potatoes and gravy, CSR's stuffed with cream cheese and wrapped in bacon. And bacon wrapped smoked spare ribs.
#13) Mahogany Madness
#14) My 4th of July rib fest. 3 racks of Baby Backs on my CharGriller grand champ. Little early because I have to work on the 4th. Best ribs I have ever made!! Hope I did this right? Smoked on Kiawe wood for 6.5hrs unwrapped
#15) Smoked and then grilled Bison ribs Macaroni salad and egg bread.
#16) Smoked boneless beef short ribs on a bed of cheese tortellini with a homemade rustic Italian tomato sauce. Dressed with shaved Parmesan cheese and parsley flakes.
#17) Memphis style dry baby backs smoked with pecan; with smoked potatoes, corn "ribs" and a rib-bon salad.
#18) Candied baby back ribs with jalapeño cheddar cornbread chaffles “waffles”.
#19) Bone in CSR rubbed with sweet heat rub and on the weber with charcoal and hickory. Finished with SBR sweet and spicy bbq sauce.
#20) Smoked & Grill Seared and Grill Roasted 5/6 Ribs!!!
#21) Deployment Dinner – A slab of Individual Baby Back ribs coated all around with a cherry habanero rub and then wrapped in bacon before a second coat of my homemade rub was added for an additional layer of deliciousness and smoked with oak and apple. There is also an added bonus of three slabs of St Louis cut spare ribs coated in my homemade rub and smoked to perfection. All the ribs were lightly coated with sauce at the finish. A side of chopped salad with homemade Italian dressing and steamed corn on the cob tops off the meal. For dessert we enjoyed cherry dump cobbler with homemade vanilla ice cream.
Well there ya have them folks. Twenty one mouth-watering entries to pick your two favorites from. Voting will close in 7 days then we post the second round of voting to determine the winners.
