***VOTE - BBQ Brethren "Around the World" Throwdown - VOTE***

[bigabyte]

It is time to decide the winner of the "Around the World" Throwdown!

I am proud to announce that we did reach 20 entries!:thumb: Sadly, most of them had to be DQ'ed.:doh: None of the DQ'ed entries are eligible for voting, so you can only pick from the ones which there is a voting option for. However, I included the pics of the DQ'ed entries because some of them were rather nice, even though they did not meet the technical aspect of the rules as they stand today.

The winner will be announced after the poll closes on Saturday 8/27.

There can only be one winner! Ole to Espana!:thumb:

[bigabyte]

Can everyone see all the pics? I can't see some of them.

[Al Czervik]

Can everyone see all the pics? I can't see some of them.

I can't see the some of the DQ's... But the links work. No biggie Biggie... :heh:

[deguerre]

Venezuela!

[bigabyte]

OK, I have the pic problem cleared up now. Sorry about that.

[bigabyte]

The enchilada's are making me really hungry...so I had to pick those.:hungry: Although all of the others I would very much like to eat as well.

[Chef Jim]

These are all fine dishes, I'm going to have to study them for awhile.

[Oldyote]

I love the pabellón a caballo but I'm pretty sure that one was supposed to be in the egg throwdown. I really want to go with the Dilly Bar but I can't find the farkn button.:tsk:

[bigabyte]

I've got something very much different in mind for the Egg Throwdown!:becky:

[colonel00]

Too funny :rofl:

Unregistered Kid has an advantage because everyone loves kids.

[bigabyte]

Yeah, I think my vote may go to the Gratuitous Kids shot. I'm just trying to figure out how to do that.

[---k---]

I enjoyed the vote thread. I'm glad we all can have fun with the rules.

Great entries everyone. As always, it was a difficult decision. Caseydog made it real hard to continue viewing the thread. Probably one of the best entries I've seen, but my stomach just wasn't in a fancy mood today and it wasn't speaking to me. :crazy: Biggie almost had me with the photos of the ladies and his dish was looking pretty good, but then went and threw an egg on it. :crazy:

In the end, it was Oldyote's second entry that spoke to me the most. I'm a sucker for Mexican food. I debate frequently which I enjoy more, BBQ or Mexican. The answer of course is brisket tacos. :-D It was a great entry.

Thanks ---k---:whoo:

[Gore]

What the heck? I've been DQ'ed? :shock: No explanation, just a DQ. How the Fark did that happen? Biggie never did what I told him before, so I thought I could use reverse psychology. I guess he has a new Foil Hat that protects him from reverse psychology :shock:

Bill, do you have any bulls I can borrow?

Well I'm starting to figure out how these TD's work and based on my observations your DQ this week should be OK for e-code to enter next week as I'm certain eggs were used in the Quesada. :crazy: Just not sure how the bulls play into it just yet. :confused:

[Oldyote]

After careful consideration (that being looking at all the pictures again and always going back to the one I would like to sample most) and no option for the Dilly Bar - I had to go with e-code.

[colonel00]

I am still holding out hoping that the option to vote for the dilly bars shows up eventually. Man those look great. That or the leftovers.

Yup... I'm not sure how this one is gonna go though... he's the last one I got left!:becky:

[deguerre]

This one does come with the rifle option though.

I finally made it past the sixty photos from the "unregistered" entrants, and discovered Old Yote's second entry. I voted for it, even though he didn't vote for mine.

He must be really into recycling. :heh:

[Big George's BBQ]

I would have liked to have voted for Gore's Dilly Bar. Great entrees

I can't believe you DQ'ed Diana. Are you crazy? :crazy: Those bulls got nothin' on her! :scared:

[colonel00]

^^^She is hard core. Look, she slammed her hand down on a knife just to prove it! :shocked:

[southernsmoker]

These throwdowns are gettin sillier everytime I visit, I have to put on my silly hat and think for a spell...:crazy: :becky:

[bigabyte]

^^^She is hard core. Look, she slammed her hand down on a knife just to prove it! :shocked:
:shock::shock::shock::shock::shock:

...yet she seems to show no pain, just continuing to enjoy her food...

:scared::scared::scared::scared::scared:

Maybe I should "Un-DQ" that one.:shocked:

[Gore]

^^^ Every time we see her, I just sit back and enjoy the chaos. I'd be afraid if I were you.

[deguerre]

^^^She is hard core. Look, she slammed her hand down on a knife just to prove it! :shocked:

Even more hardcore...it's a fork.

[deguerre]

^^^ Every time we see her, I just sit back and enjoy the chaos. I'd be afraid if I were you.

Nah...the Spanish haven't been a threat to the English speaking world since 1588...

[colonel00]

Upon further inspection, that is a FORK!!! :shocked: Impaling oneself upon a knife is one thing but a fork?!?!? That is off the hook, crazy tough. The only thing tougher is a spoon and I haven't seen that since my stint in the joint back in the 60's. And, that was with a plastic spoon too :twitch:

[colonel00]

Deguerre! :doh:

[deguerre]

Deguerre! :doh:

I think that's the first deguerre ever in a TD thread...

[Chef Jim]

I've narrowed it down to 2, no wait 3. I'm a little ADHD, I just can't focus on one. I'm going to ask Penny and Bingo for help.

Free market, baby. Free market. Throwdowns are laissez-faire -- biggie wouldn't have it any other way.

Now, excuse me, I have brethren to bribe.

Well, That wouldn't be fair now, would it? Good luck, now I'm down to two. But, that doesn't mean I that you are out of the running.
