PH Cooking competition Pork Vote ***A***

[captainzep]

Hello folks.

The poll format only allows 10 spaces for voting and we have 13 entries this time. I asked on the feedback forum if there was any solution but none has been forthcoming. Hence I've decided to split the voting over two polls. Don't know how its going to work but don't see another way round this.

So vote for your favourite dish here in Poll ***A*** or vote for your favourite dish on poll ***B***. Winning dish will be the one with the most votes.

Calibrax –Pork Roast


Cotty -Pork, chilli & bean stew


Vanessa B -Chilli Verde with Mexican Green Peas and Tortillas


FaineantFreddie –Roast Pork Belly


Bob the Planner -Pork in Black Bean Sauce


21TonyK –Pork medley dish


Mark Benson –Ribstravaganza

When it comes to voting it's not so easy, I really think a tasting session Is needed before voting!

I take it entrants can vote (as long as it's not for themselves!)

FWIW you got mine. Okay, it's not fancy "fine dining" or anything but IMHO food is not about that. Food should be something that looks and tastes good that you can eat any and every day. I assume thats what yours is? Clear, bold flavours that make you happy.

Fancy food has it's place when you want to emphasise that you have "made and effort" for dinner parties but 99.9% of the time it's "bung it in a big bowl and open a few bottles".

Yep just nice everyday food. No one to impress at home, although I did sprincke on some chopped herbs for the competition, presentation wise.

PS I didn't vote for mine

I have only voted once but could have voted for several of them.
Looking forward to the next competition now.

I originally said Wed night because the poll took longer to set up than anticipated.

However, we could bring it forward to tomorrow night?

So how do you compare the % of votes in one poll with the % in another?

Drill it back to the raw data?

Transpose them. Carry out an Analysis of Variance. And a two-tailed T-test. (My favourite statistical methode champenoise).

Get Mrs Zep to dress like this.



Divide the numbers by this formulon:



And then by this:



Then divide the number of votes by 100 and multiply them by each %age of the vote.

And Robert's one's uncle.

But Tony still wins. With his blinkin' talent and hard work.
