We haven't had much new in the way of rules suggestions, so things are kind of at a standstill. Here's where I'm at:
I know Kevin wants to be more specific with the proteins, but I'm not sure that fits with the IC format which only limits dishes by one ingredient. There have been no comments my scoring, so I'm not sure if people are cool with it. By no means is this final, unless we have approval of the combatants and the judges (two of which, I suspect, are still totally in the dark).
I propose unveiling the secret ingredient on 6/1. One team will be required to post 4 photos on each of the following days 6/8, 6/10, and 6/12, the other team must post 6/9, 6/11, and 6/13. The 4 photo post will be shots of prep and cooking of the three dishes, or of just one of the three dishes. No text will be allowed. Any comments must be from the judges, commentator (if we have one), and fellow board members. On 6/14, prior to 12:00 am, each team must post 3 photos of the three final dishes with explanation. The judges can ask questions of the teams, all questions and replies must be completed by 6/16. Scoring can be completed some time after q/a.

we have one secret ingredient. we write the rest into the judging criteria.
judging could go like this:
1) appearance/presentation
2) creativity/use of secret ingredient
3) technique
Each would be worth 3 points, each dish could max at 9, and a team max of 27. An additional 3 points could be awarded as a team score for how well the three dishes work together. The final team total would be 30 points.
1) covers one final, plated photo, as well as 4 photos taken during prep. Judges are looking for good presentation start to finish. This would be similar to how the show discusses dishes as they are made. Teams could post photos, but no comments until a final description of plated dish. Comments during the duration of the contest would be limited to MVP's and non competing board members. After plating, before scoring, the judges can post questions for the competitors.
2) covers creative uses of: secret ingredient, weber grills, fire/smoke, different proteins. More is better.
3) covers how much of the creativity made sense. Did the cooking techniques match the chosen proteins? Does dish appear to be expertly executed? Was the secret ingredient used appropriately?
4) covers the team/meal concept. Was there a theme other than secret ingredient? Was there repetition in any dish, or use of the secret ingredient?
I know Kevin wants to be more specific with the proteins, but I'm not sure that fits with the IC format which only limits dishes by one ingredient. There have been no comments my scoring, so I'm not sure if people are cool with it.
