@Ozzie_Isaac I tried to break out the dslr once. I still can't compete with @hapster or @cazzy or @tarheelmatt or, or, or.... I just go with the crappy phone. Either you like my food or not... I'm not a photog, although I'd like to learn. Just another high dollar hobby.

NPHuskerFL said:Just to be candid. This cook is really not that difficult. No more so that say lollipops, stuffed loin, stuffed and bacon wrapped meatloaf, brisket.....With that said, I am really glad I did it and will definitely be doing it again. My wife already has a bunch of ideas for the stuffing.

Learned something new. I had wished my entry was brighter so I just found I could have made it brighter with the effects on the phone...oh well...still lots of fun!!Jeremiah said:All the entries looked great! And no one said anything about photo editing, they just had to be cell phone pics. Just remember, he who wins has to call the next one!

Ozzie_Isaac said:Tinyfish said:@ Ozzie_Isaac nice First nice job! Second I went with a BIG fork you topped me with 4 forks LOL.Your cook looked awesome. The colors in your stuffing are great looking. I will admit, I was pretty intimidated by all the beautiful cooks people are doing. This board is hardcore!
I just went to my shed for my fork. Can't out gun a cannon -

Oh crap. I'm blaming the massive amounts of NyQuil on that one. Sorry. You're correct.Slumming it in Aiken, SC. -

I call fowl on @Tinyfish . You are only allowed 2 pictures. Posting them here is skirting the rules!
So, posting on the official only? So, starting a personal thread after posting to the " Official Thread" would also be a no no? @Jeremiah Rules clarification.
This was fun, and it's great to see what everyone came up with. @NPHuskerFL you should start a thread for any extra photos people want to share, after the voting is doneChicago, IL - Large and Small BGE - Weber Gasser and Kettle -

Pfffffft. Been on the egg for ~30 minutes now. Late dinner.
Wasn't hard to do, just hard to do well. I overstuffed and had a few issues tying it up, but it's on and that's all that matters, it'll eat.Not a felon -
@NPHuskerFL I would expect nothing less... Maybe even an animated gif of the deboning?! =D> Kind of odd I look forward to seeing total strangers make dinner, but good to know others enjoy it as much as I do. Man, more awesome entries. @UrbanForestTurnings kudos for taking part, that thing is off the hook amazing, obviously a lot of work. Hope you folks get better soon!Chicago, IL - Large and Small BGE - Weber Gasser and Kettle

@Jeremiah serious thank you for the inspiration! I had a great time. Look forward to more of these if anyone else has something in mind.

Hey guys thanks for the thanks but this was @NPHuskerFL 's idea. I just made the thread. I love these too. It's the spirit of competition...It's why we love sports!... the NyQuil is seriously effing up my brain. Turning in nowSlumming it in Aiken, SC.

This was a challenge for me. I think it took me about 45 minutes too. I went through a million pair of nitrile gloves. I would of just used bare hands, but it was a lot easier to just take a glove off to stop/start the iPad as opposed to washing and messing with iPad.
For those of you that haven't started yet and plan to use the video as a guide, I'd recommend having somebody standing by to start and pause the video.
I just put my phone in a sandwich bag and forget gloves. Way way easier.Dunedin, FL -

Plastic wrap on the iPad screen worked great. Someone else suggested it, but I'm too lazy to read back thru all the thread.

I watched the video twice then went in blind. No live help or video. Made it more exciting

These are some tough cooks, very hard to judge yet, I have a few narrowed down though, all are bringing their A games.Keep bringing it , I'm judging the shizz out of this one.

Made a late night decision to do this. Way fun and it picked me up out of a creative rut. I forgot how much fun a good old throwdown is.
