Finally studied all the cook threads and read the ones I previously hadn't, Oldyote (love that sauce, too), Angryfish01 (love the shanks!) and MS2SB (love the grilling 'deep fry'). I agree with previous posts that the quality of the cooks for this TD as a group are exceptional. In fact, all of them made it to my top scores of 5 and 6 out of 6 which has never happened before (I had to develop a scoring system for clarity in voting because my brethren and sistren are THAT GOOD). In the end I have to vote for Buccaneer for that flakey, golden god Adonis pastry. I haven't looked at the vote tallies for a while so don't know the details of that nail biter race Guerry posted above. I may be shooting myself in the foot, but, my favourite is my favourite, what else can I do? :noidea:
