I feel like this thread needs to have the Pierre story randomly inserted for any new members that don’t know the best food story in the universe
I showed my parents that story and my mom says “wow you know this guy?” I said, “know him? hell yeah …I hang out with him!” “Is he famous?”…“yeah you could say that Mom.” Haaha!

Best Thread: Big Ole" Steak - Russel Bette’s
While this is a fun thread, it should be noted that regardless if you have been named here or not, you are all valuable contributors to this community. Like making the finest culinary dish(es) requires a delicate balance of ingredients to create the finished product, our community wouldn’t be as good as it is if it weren’t for everyone’s contributions. It doesn’t matter if your contributions are just a; “pinch of this or dash of that” - or if you are simply a consumer and rarely post. Everyone here is an equal part of the community and for that I THANK YOU ALL.
A couple of additional honorary mentions @BossaNova@joonjoon@jsfein all of whom I have had had the pleasure of meeting and breaking bread with.
I look forward to meeting many more of you in the future.
Poster with the Best Personal Culinary Creations= Eli and Mrs p. John Babbit: although I’ve never tasted his offerings, he has some really creative stuff and I plan to drive over to try a bunch of his products now that football season is over.
Poster with the Best Restaurant Reviews: Greg for his mixed/unique reviews of different places, always oozing charisma and good for a laugh. Jr for the most thorough reviews of places that I gravitate toward. Goodparm for an outstanding variety with great pics too.
Poster with the Funniest Stories: jr!
(there are a few other people on here with hilarious stories but they aren’t NJ so we can’t vote for them. @jcostiones has my tx greggy vote!)
Kindest Poster: everyone here is very nice. I can’t pick one
Most Useful Poster: this depends on what food you like, where you live, and a lot of variables. Joon has one of my votes. I’ve been following this dude for many years, and many years before HO on chowhound. He has turned me onto some cool spots, food hacks and different types of cuisine. Jr has another vote. My “diet” (alright let’s call it food and liquor consumption :) closely aligns with his style so I always look forward to his threads. And last but not least, your MC Greg. He lives in the next town over so he is a great source of local knowledge and he has an “eclectic” and diverse taste.
Best Thread= steak thread (I miss the Viking and he may just get a Greggy after this contest is over)
thanks buddy! I can’t hold a candle in some categories but I try to make this forum a more fun and informative place. You’re definitely one of the most colorful characters on here! I always enjoy reading all your awesome stories. Fun times! Hopefully I can get down there and we can demolish some shellfish
