Congrats to the winners! My sad looking but tasty entry was the Alfredo pattie melt. It went sideways when there wasn't a clean good knife to cut my burger I was hungry and all there was was a steak knife.:biggrin: it was fun hopefully I can try another sometime. Thanks I'm glad someone at least voted for this hot mess!

Congrats to the winners!! I am going to have to work a lot harder in both cooking and camera :)

My entry was the 9 the Mushroom Swiss Turkey burger. My wife is hooked on the smoked turkey burgers. The addition of shredded zucchini in them is a trick I picked up of a friend who's a body builder. It really does the trick in keeping them moist and replacing the traditional bread crumbs. They taste a lot better than the pic :)

Thanks Chef! I was in the mood for a rice ball, wanted to try it on the vortex and the thought came to me. That's what I love about the throwdowns... make you think outside the box.

Thanks so much to everyone who participated and/or voted and thanks again to @dirtsailor2003 for organizing these throwdowns. Mine was the Juicy Lucia... dont have too many pics of the process but here are a couple...
Every entry was amazing and of course I had to vote for my own lol, The Juicy Lucia however drew me in every time I looked through the entries, I definitely would have like to take a big BIG bite of out of it lol. Nice work.

First off, kudos to Smoke Trail Steve and Worktogthr!
Mine was #14.
I didn't get a pic of the smoke. You're just going to have to trust me. To 140 over Hickory before searing.
This was such a great bunch of sandwiches I almost broke my rule about voting for myself. Almost :biggrin:
Thanks, Case, for coming up with this, and I know we're all looking forward to what you come up with next!
