Are you aware of the fact that what you are looking at is salmon nachos?

It wasn't salmon that I saw...

Nacho Cheeseburger

 

[Dweverett]

Very cool and creative entry!

 

[LYU370]

Nice looking burger, but how is that nachos? Are the chips hidden inside somewhere? I don't get it, this is a Nacho's TD, not a nacho cheese TD. :noidea:

Chips without nacho cheese topping is just chips.
Nachos is the cheese/pepper/meat topping.

You’ve obviously been hitting the Malort a bit hard. :becky:

 

[LYU370]

So if I enter a bowl of queso & chorizo I can call it Nacho's? I'll let one of the more senior moderators chime in, but I think this is a far cry from nachos. Even your QTalk thread lists it as a nacho cheeseburger and not nachos.

Let's clear this up once and for all, shall we? From Merriam-Webster:

Nacho: a tortilla chip topped with melted cheese and often additional savory toppings (such as hot peppers or refried beans)
plural: nachos

John, that was a great looking burger, but it is NOT nachos. It wouldn't be much different if you submitted a burger that had pizza sauce and pepperoni for a pizza Throwdown.

So...which flavor of Dilly Bar do you prefer? :mrgreen:

Another option would be to submit a new entry that fits the category description, per the Throwdown rules:

I’m okay with the dilly bar, I knew it was a stretch when I posted it.

What i’m hearing is this entry is nacho type of nachos.

I still think y’all are splitting chips here and being cheesy with your decisions though.

Just for you Andy.

Like I said before, great looking burger. :wink:

Alrighty then...back to our regularly scheduled programming.

I'm definitely planning on entering this one - hopefully with some homemade chips, homemade salsas, and some kind of grilled meat...

A question for the TD poobahs-
Would smoked meat from the freezer be allowed?
Asking for a friend. ��

Technically, yes. Entries must be prepared during the time the Throwdown runs, and there's no limitation on whether meat that is used in the entry is fresh or frozen.



So, your friend should be good to go! :thumb:


:biggrin1:

Thanks Richard!
Quite a few of the other ingredients will see some form of fire as well.
