Vote early and often redux
The Times’ own staffer Jim Webster has advanced to the quarterfinals of Mario Batali’s Ultimate Grilling Challenge. With what started as a variation on turducken (a turkey stuffed with a duck stuffed with a chicken), Webster took things in a new, molto Italiano direction, ending up with his inspired recipe for Pig-Wrapped Pig-Stuffed Pig. It features homemade pork sausage flavored gently with orange zest and toasted fennel, stuffed in a pork tenderloin which is then wrapped carefully with pancetta and grilled.
You can watch his video here, but there have been some technical difficulties with the online voting process. For this reason, a new method of voting has been implemented. Registrants are now directed to send their ratings of the Quarter Finalist videos to info@mariobatali.com. Registrants must insert "VOTE" in the subject line and the name of each Quarter Finalist(s) and number of stars in the body of the e-mail. All of the terms and conditions set forth in Mario's Ultimate Grilling Challenge Official Rules still apply.
Help Jim beat the other quarterfinalists and vote from all your various e-mail accounts before the September 29 deadline (registering automatically enters voters in a sweepstakes to win one of ten autographed copies of Mario Batali’s latest cookbook, Italian Grill).
Let’s not let a little computer glitch deter our Prince of Pork Products from his 15 minutes of culinary fame!
