I received eight wonderful entries for this throw-down. A little less than our normal numbers, but with mother nature reeking havoc in our southern states. I think we did pretty darn good.
Being on the throw-down committee has its perks, and the one perk that stands out the most is: I'm glad I'm not the one judging this contest. To our three member judging panel and all members of the SMF community - All I can say is good luck with this one.
So without any more word-salading from me. Let's get it on!!!
1) Smoked turkey breast and mashed potatoes with gravy with a side of smoked chicken balls.
2) Pellet Grill Roasted Whole Chicken, Mash Potato’s & Gravy, Roasted Carrots, and Grilled Onion and Mushrooms.
3) Grilled skinless and boneless chicken thighs that were marinated overnight with Mexican spices and liquids. The Mexican rice was made from scratch with a black bean base and a drizzle of Mole Sauce on top.
4) Diwali feast! Tandoori chicken, marinated in yogurt and spices and smoked over cherry wood. Homemade yellow lentil dal, and crispy green beans with garlic. Served with basmati rice, garlic naan, and mint chutney.
5) Chicken-sausage-mac-n-cheese stuffed fatty
6) Grilled Raspberry Chipotle & Bourbon Chicken Lollipops.
7) Chef Paul Prudhomme Blackened Redfish Magic cherry smoked whole chicken and wings, with bacon wrapped thighs, topped with cajun seasoned hard boiled eggs.
8) Mojo Criollo Chicken. Smoked on my charcoal R2D2 smoker. Paired with a saison.
Well that's all of the entries. Let's show these folks some support and cast your vote. If I set this up correctly. Each member can cast one vote, and you're not allowed to change that vote. So make sure you cast your vote correctly the first time. Due to some appointments I have next week. I've shortened the voting period from 7 days to 5 days. I hope this doesn't inconvenience anyone.
Enjoy and let the games begin
