I'm going to go...
1. James (Because the sausage wreath was very creative and he smoked so much stuff, and it all looked good, but the quail put him on top.)
2. Straycat (Because he worked hard on three different entries and they all looked good.)
It was a tough call between them two and both put a lot of effort into trying to win that knife.
3. TDunson (Because he cooked a lot of different stuff and I know how difficult it is to do all that.)
Honorable mentions:
Wew3006 for the creative sides and nice brisket.
Bearbranch for the smoked baloney. I have to try that.
Skullworks for the nice ribs and steaks and for putting this thing on.
AU338MAG for the perfect grill marks on his steak.
Bward85 for the tomato pie
A couple of comments on this contest.
1. Everyone did a great job and it's awesome to see the cooking buffet forum taking off like it is.
2. Kudos to Skullworks for putting this contest on.
3. In contests like these your photography is almost as important as your cooking skills. Presentation and staging your food goes a long way to winning.
4. It makes the judging confusing when you are trying to scroll through the long thread and everyone keeps copying and pasting the same food photos over and over again and then saying "Looks good." So you see the same food 3 or 4 times. I'm guilty of that as well, but we may want to make a rule in the next contest not to do that or maybe even not to comment in the contest thread at all. Just post pictures, describe your food, and no one comment unless they are posting their own food. Just a suggestion to keep the food posting thread clean.
On a personal note, next time I enter one of these, I'm not going to invite anyone over. What was going to just be Mrs. Irish and I and maybe one other couple, turned into a full fledged party with 10 people, smoking cigars, drinkin' out by the fire pit, and carrying on until way past my bedtime. It's job to entertain that many people, cook, stage a plate of food, and take pictures. But it was fun as hell and all our friends left the cabin very happy. And that's the main thing, having fun and eating good food with people you love... Well Said.... I have to say i simply couldn't pick by the meat even though i decided it would be BBQ and not steak, there was simply way too much good stuff 😄
Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many!
