Iron Chef: April

Photobucket
Welcome, welcome, welcome! It's time for the Iron Chef challenge announcement for the month of April! Are you ready?! Think you've got what it takes???


According to the poll that has been in my sidebar all week - the people want a Crockpot Throwdown! Wait...wrong Food Network show....Oh well, I made this up, I can change it up, eh? So that's what we're calling this month's Iron Chef Challenge...


Crockpot Throwdown!




Here's how it plays out...


Link up in the Mr. Linky to your favorite Crockpot Recipe. It can be one you've already posted or one you go post right now. Next Wednesday I will use a random.org widget to choose the three finalists from the Mr. Linky list. I'll post the recipes and link them in my sidebar. I'll hook up the poll and pass out the 'vote for me' buttons. Oh yeah, I'll also reveal the prize for April.


This is where it's a little different: There are 3 celebrity judges plus myself. All 3 of these judges have committed to trying the 3 recipes and passing along their vote to me. My family will be weighing in with their collective vote as the 4th judge. The poll will count as the 5th vote.


You guys are the 5th vote. So, it's up to YOU to go and try all three recipes and then come back and vote in the poll. Feel free to post reviews of the recipes! I think it's fun to read what other people thought.


Since this month is a long month, you have THREE FULL WEEKS to try the recipes. On April 29th I will post the winner of Iron Chef: Croockpot Throwdown.


Any questions?


Ok...so let's see 'em...show me your crockpot recipes! Mr. Linky will be up until Next TUESDAY night!


To quote the chairman on Iron Chef America...


"Allez! Cuisinez!"

I love the convenience of the crock-pot but am honestly crock-pot challenged!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for not calling it the "crockpot throwup." ;)

And, I will have to pore over my recipes. I think I can do this one! Can it be a recipe from a cookbook, or does it have to be one I've created?

Totally in this one! I am trying a new recipe this week, so we will see how that goes and then I will link up. Always count me in on a crock pot challenge!

I linked up a recipe, but I really hope it doesn't have to be something I made up all on my own. That so will never happen!
