The pastrami recipe from "The Artisan Jewish Deli at Home" is one of the best things I've ever made. I love me some brisket.

I like it, but hate to make it.

I wish Robert Rodriguez was my neighbour though:

BBQ is a deep hole, with plenty of geographical differences from meat to sauces. I don’t think anyone can come to single winner as it is too complex a cuisine.

I have seen Georgia boys travel to Texas for Brisket for example. The sauces and style just do not exist in every location. Hence why I love platers. Brisket, Pulled Pork, Turkey (I like chicken myself), Hot Link, Ribs and a loaf of white bread with sauces are the winner here. Oh and Burbon lots and lots of Burbon.

A thick cut tomahawk pork chop done to medium or medium rare (depending on preference) is the king of the grill.

I love beef (in all it's shapes & size), but nothing tastes like a properly cooked pork chop on the BBQ.

I chose pork chop over brisket in the bracket, but was too afraid to share my opinion on here after the brisket brigade had formed

I love food. I give brisket a 10/10. I give pork chops a 10/10. None of them are better than the other, depending on mood, and who is cooking and how you feel.

When I fire up the smoker, I usually have at least 1 chicken in there, ribs, a brisket and maybe some burgers or a small Boston butt. I try to get as much of everything in there so I get all bases covered. When doing burgers, I usually buy a cheap block of cheddar and smoke that too.

All of this stuff is amazing. I'm just glad it was poll and not the other one.

I'm clearly a pleb at the BBQ, as only one of my choices (hamburgers) made it through.

[FlamesAddiction]

And just in case you think your vote doesn't matter, hamburgers beat sirloin by only 9 votes. Voting has never been so important.

I'm more interested in the thread name euphemisms than I am the pole. Really want to see where he goes from here.

Poll**

[Fuzz]

That too.

[_Q_]

Hamburgers over Pork Ribs for me because Hamburgers are incredible and anything pork tastes like ass crack.

Rib Eye over Plank Salmon, because it's not even close. Plank salmon is unnecessarily fussy and Rib Eye is the food of the Gods.

Prime Rib over beef tenderloin because prime rib is basically just an enormous rib eye. No contest here.

The last two were close for me, but I picked rotisserie chicken over brisket simply because bad brisket is horrific, but bad rotisserie chicken is edible.

[DownInFlames]

Tenderloin is one of my least favourite cuts of beef. Give me a nicely marbled ribeye (I predict it takes the trophy) or even a strip.

[Frequitude]

Very disappointed hamburgers beat sirloin. What makes tasty hamburgers tasty is all the other non-meat ingredients. Nothing beats a medium rare strip.

[calumniate]

This poll was really hard

[FlamesAddiction]

I like a good burger in a pinch. Not every BBQ event is going to be a feast and I am more than happy to throw some burgers on the grill for dinner, but if you put all those other choices in front of me, sorry hamburger, you are the weakest link.

[BlackArcher101]

This whole thing is a farce to me now seeing hamburgers won over a good sirloin. Blasphemy.
