such a shame that the quality of the photo affects votes. I'm voting Groundhog. that's an awesome final product. The flash kind of hurt his photo. Pulled a copy and opened up in Picasa and fooled around with it....Winning!!

I would love to see that pic :shocked: I never modify my photos at all, I guess maybe I should start.

Dang it! I've all but been in traction with a bulging disc and I would have kicked your A$$E$ on his one!!! I am seriously a ~what Samuel L Jackson's wallet says in Pulp fiction~ when it come to tri tip. When I can walk again, hell sit up for that matter….
Had to go with campdude though...WTH Gore??? I clicked the link...I need a back story on that one!

Only an amateur at this, but here you go.

I know... I saw his picture and loved the composition. The flash and shadows just degraded that beautiful hunk of meat:wink:

Thank you, I appreciate the compliment.

Amazing. I thought one of the Californians would run away with this. I gotta give it to SmokinAussie - and that's not even taking into account he's way down there and has never seen, let alone cooked one of these before :shock:. That pic just says "eat me you farker!".

I would risk getting attacked by whatever dangerous critters they have down there for a bit of that tri-tip.:thumb: Nice work, sir! :thumb:

Should go without saying!:thumb::becky::hungry: Mighty nice!

This was surprisingly easy for me this time, unlike the ribs which killed me to choose. I just felt Bill nailed it.

southernsmoker · Mar 29, 2011

Yep, Groundhog66 this time round (without the enhanced photo too) :thumb:

deguerre · Mar 29, 2011

Absolutely no hesitation at all on this one. Deepsouth. Nuff said.

bigabyte · Mar 29, 2011

Gore should be making his big comeback soon.

BMantlow · Mar 29, 2011

They all make my mouth water :grouphug:

To me, IMO only, all the ones with the Santa Maria Rubs just made me do double takes, I was stuck between Dannypat and Groundhog, Groundhog's degree of doneness applealed more to my liking :clap:

Arlin_MacRae · Mar 29, 2011

Bill, the meat looked great but if you'd sliced it more you'd've gotten my (our) vote.

Although Gore's tri-tip fattie substance was intriguing

shocked

, we gave it to groundhog66. Nice work, everyone!

You can turn a steak from overcooked to blood rare with a simple red adjustment. Perhaps there should be some limits on what's allowed. Unfortunately some cameras skew towards the over-saturated, redder side anyway, so then you'd just be favoring people with those cameras.

I think it's pretty obvious which ones are touched up, but maybe that's just me spending too many years in photoshop.

For the record, I didn't do any adjustment on my photos.

EDIT: on re-reading this, I sound like a whiney little girl. I don't give a rat's butt what people do to their photos, that's what the vote button is for. Some great looking tips in there. Doesn't look like I'm going to win this one, but I already got to eat it, that's good enough for me.

Uhhh, Chris, ... it's a little hard to make a comeback when I don't even have a farking voting bubble. :mad2: I worked very hard on that entry. In fact, I probably spent more time actually cooking my entry than anybody else. I know it probably was a little unfair that I had such better marbling than everybody else, but I really shouldn't be penalized for finding such a good supplier. Was it the squirrel? Was it the cheerleading pic? Or are you still mad that Donnie won the flip and got to be Mindy Vega in the last episode? Well, this just doesn't seem right. :tsk:

Looking forward to seeing it. Get better.
