    This is sad. Griff only has 102 votes. If I cursed on this thing, there would be more people than that chastising me within ten minutes. 

    he has my vote and i think travis should test that theory

    Oh no you don't. No way, I'm the good one.      O:-)
    Be careful, man! I've got a beverage here.
  • The time is ripe now to reiterate what I said before this all started.

    This was NOT a contest for who had the best cook.  It was a popularity contest.  Nay, it wasn't even that.  It was a test to see whose forum could muster up the most votes.  Did anyone else taste the other entries, or even look at them?  Probably not.  You just voted for Grif, just like the others voted for Juanita.

    I think Juanita submitted a hamburger.  Wheee !  Is that better than Grif's imaginative shrimp cook ?  You know the answer to that.

    These online contests are asinine.  Grif.  You're still the best, my friend !!!!!!

    Thanks everybody who took the time to take a look and cast a vote. I'm really flattered and overwhelmed about the support from the Egghead forum. Flabbergasted.

    @Village_Idiot - I totally understand your view point and agree with you. Since nobody gets to taste it, and most people's followers are just gonna vote for them, it totally comes down to a popularity contest (minus the few people who stumble upon it.) Of course, the four of us do have a lot of followers that follow 2 or more of us, cross traffic.

    All that being said, I wasn't expecting the results to be what they are so far. Thought Adam would be up higher,wasn't sure about Christina, but totally expected Jen (Juanita's Cocina) to end up taking it all. I just wanted to make a good showing. So...thanks for all the support so far.

    And I got plenty of pics from this weekend, just need to get them uploaded and ready tomorrow. So back to talking about what we love...The Egg!!

    However, we must rise from the ashes like the phoenix.

     Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves, that if the Big Green Egg forum lasts for a thousand years, men will still say, This was their finest hour.

    Griffin got my vote and I plan on making his recipe soon. Chili mix on shrimp sounds great even if it is 7 in the morning. The burgers do sound good, but I can't pass voting for a fellow egghead to vote for a burger cooked on a skillet, indoors..

    Here's some smack talk from one of the competitors: "Griffin’s Grub—Jason Griffin is a grill master….I am jealous of his Big Green Egg, but it will not impact the end result of this Throwdown. He’s going down like a lead balloon." Wrong about the BGE. I voted for Griffin but he's still in second & needs more votes.

    Got my vote Griff!   I know we are just going by looks, but that recipe looks fantastic.  I have it bookmarked and will make it for my wife.  If I can only manage not to overcook the shrimp as I have every other time.




    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    The good news is, you don't even have to curse to get people fired up anymore! @littlesteven has been assailing my character and demanding me to be banned for my superior taste in mullets.

    I voted for Grif too. Cuz Don Toyota said so (and Grif is by all account a good dude)

    It's tied !  They need to have 3 debates, and their sous chefs, 1 debate.

    Take THAT, Juanita !!!  You may be drop dead gorgeous, a suma cum laude graduate of The Cordon Bleu Academy in Paris, and a member of Mensa, but our very own Griffin, uh,  well, he's got a mini from Hunt, Texas !!!!

    Statistics are interesting things - one of the easiest ways to influence responses is to put the answers you want at the first position..

    ...not that I'm implying any shenanigans...

    Tweev, I'd be more impressed if you made the guy with only 10 votes win.

    If it wasn't for me, Juanita would only have 10 votes.  This is actually a fair bit more work than I had anticipated when I took this project on.  Urg.

    Good use of your time.

    That's cheating.

    Show me the rules where it says it is cheating? And what governing body will enforce discipline for the infraction?
