PH Cooking Competition #34: Game On!

[mattdaniels]

And so a new year starts and I have the honour of kicking off the cooking competition. With a nod to seasonality, the theme for this round is: GAME ON

The main component of your dish must be seasonal game, wildfowl or deer. So pheasant, partridge, rabbit, duck, goose, venison, take your pick and get roasting, frying or pie-ing.

Bonus marks (in my eyes) awarded for a nice image of a hearty seasonal dish you'd like to come home to after a hard days shooting.

Best of luck everyone, let's recover from the lethargy of the holidays and see a good compliment of entries.

GAME ON!

Happy to let it run longer if that's what people want, it's just that if it gets to February PH pedants might start saying we're out of the game season.

OK, now I feel bad.

[mattdaniels]

I'll extend the comp one week to give everyone an extra weekend to play with.

[mattdaniels]

This is going well. Again.

I say we let this run till Sunday 23rd of Feb with voting the following week?

A whole extra MONTH??
That would be well out of game season though which would kind of defeat the object of the comp

Does it not freeze?

I know that's cheating somewhat, but...

Yes it freezes. It's not cheating at all.

[mattdaniels]

Final weekend approaching to get your competition entries in.

[mattdaniels]

Any more for any more or are we just not bothering with the food comp?

[mattdaniels]

Any more for any more or shall I create the voting thread now ?

[mattdaniels]

What, and run the risk of winning and being saddled with the hassle of creating another competition that no one gives a fudge about? No thanks.

RIP the cooking competition it was fun whilst it lasted.

[mattdaniels]

Not really "running". More limping along like a three legged dog looking to be put out of its misery.

[mattdaniels]

Well volunteered that man. Off you go!

As one of the only two posters that could be bothered to post an entry in the 'Game on' comp - I hope you get more entries for your new comps with subjects that have more appeal to 'Urban England'.

I'm not hacked off - but you do have insensibilities to Matt that devised the game cooking comp and TeeRev and I that made the effort to compete. A bit of imagination on your part and there could have been various rugby/football suppers!

eta even table tennis, golf suppers etc...
