[Blister]

Samuel Adams is nice, but I prefer Samuel Jacksons. MMMMMMMM MMMMMMM! IT'S GOOD MOTHER F'N BEER MOTHER F'ER!

P. Dreadie, your post is in the comfort food discussion thread. Unfortunately, if I let yours in, I'd have to make exceptions for all and who knows how far back people would go with old pics. It's more about getting together and cooking on the Net on the actual Throwdown days. It had a good chance of winning, it looks delish!

Damn TB......... U and those SoFlo boys came with it!!! To be honest it looks like everyone came with it! You all are freaks that should be beaten and ashamed of yourselves........cooking up ambrosia while some of us think cooking is adding some chili powder to Ramen noodles U all make me sick AND hungry.

uhm...that's a FAIL! I haven't posted mine yet. Sorry FurBurglar.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Sum that looks great, but can you tell us more about what's in it? What's in the gravy? The stuffing? What's on that bird? It may win more votes this way.

Ok next we have the Prime Rib upon exit from the stove and on the chopping block:

And finally the plating. No foo foo here except maybe the Aus Jus. I already described the Prime Rib, but the final plate also includes some Gorgonzola mashed potatoes with cilantro and green onion, and a green bean casserole with fried onions, mushrooms, and Parmesan cheese.

Damn it give this man the win!

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Hophead, I'm with ya on that one. You can tell it's comfort food just by the shape of the sides and the way they stick together. And the prime rib is perfectly cooked (make mine MR).

thehotpepper.com ,

I fully understand . I posted the pictures from the start knowing I wouldn't be in the running. Sum wanted to see what I did , even if it wasn't done at the proper time. The great thing is getting to see what everyone came up with. I'd love to go for dinner at everyone's home who posted on this. Super food all around !!

Next time I'll do things proper. And the other good thing is I have a huge amount of meat loaf that I can enjoy.

Peace,
P. Dreadie

Everyone is doing great. I knew the SoFlo posse would make their presence known on this one. FD4 I love Shrimp and Grits! And Sum that roast chicken looks amazing! Where TB at??? He is building a masterpiece no doubt. Or maybe... he got too intoximicated to post pics last night.

I like your choice of beer Fry dad

I agree. Posting that meal was the finish to the night and I was exhausted (read drunk enough to not care at that moment).

I've since edited my final entry post with all the info if it will help sway your decision from JayT.

 

[QuadShotz]

damn, all these good entries..a shame I ate all the evidence.

 

[frydad4]

This has been a good one all-around.
I have a feeling this is what the "THP Potluck" would look like.
So far we have VERY worthy entries from almost every animal group: Chicken, Beef, Pork, Shrimp, Collard.

TB, you're scaring me. You've gotta be up to something. The THP throwdown is turning into a chess match. Product placement, trash talking, jockeying for position. Craziness.

JayTs prime rib looks so good it keeps getting re-posted. Uh Oh.
That roasted chicken looked pretty damn good too!!!!

 

[P. Dreadie]

Sum now you that posted your spices that Bird sounds as good as it looks. And I'm with most everyone .... where's TB ?

Peace,
P. Dreadie

 

[texas blues]

Here 'tis ya'll..

For maximum enjoyment start with this diddy and listen while perusing the post! Uh how how how...

TB's TexMex Combinacions Plato Grande

I gotta' say I was torn between doing a good ol' chicken fried steak plate and this TexMex bohemoth spread, but this one I just couldn't pass up. Growing up in Tejas, this is the food I came to know and love and couldn't get enough of. Later I'll post the pic that inspired this mayhem and chaos...

We have...

Filet mignon steak and shrimp chimmichanga's
TB's Notorious Tamales w/ranchero sauce
Nacho's
Rice and refrieds
Chile Rellenos
Guacamole
TB's Rio Grand Picante Sauce
Heaps of limes, pickled 'penos, fresh deep fried 'penos
Liberal use of jack, cheddar and cotija cheeses
A heapin' of Texas Hospitality

Too many teaser pics to post so we'll go straight for the money!!!

Get this fine fare in you and before long you too will learn to say ya'll!

 

[P. Dreadie]

Damm !!!!!!!

Peace,

[SumOfMyBits]

TB- NICE!!! The Mezcal with the gourds and multi-colored corn foo could only be trumped with a Horn of Plenty.

 

[POTAWIE]

Looks so good TB, but I'm a bit confused at what's the main dish and what are the two sides

Main platter with the chimmi's, refrieds and rice. Surrounding that are additional sides and condiments. I'm eating leftovers as I type!
