Welcome to the Official BYC Mini-Contest
Thanksgiving Side Dishes!
Ends on November 30th, 2022

​

Ah, Thanksgiving. The time of year when we gather together with friends and family to relax, have some fun, and of course, ruin our diets. Many folks have special holiday meal traditions that have been passed down over time, and we'd like to know about what ends up on the table at your Thanksgiving meal. Specifically:

What's your Favorite Thanksgiving side dish?

Whether it's Granny's secret recipe stuffing, homemade rolls or biscuits, Uncle Jimmy's famous BBQ Brisket beans, or anything in between, what's something that's a "must-have" when you sit down to your Thanksgiving meal?

Winners of this contest will be determined by a panel of judges. The judges will be VERY HUNGRY, so give them your best pics and make them jealous of your delicious side dishes for a chance to win!

There will be at least 5 winners, and each will receive a copy of the beautiful BYC 2023 Calendar!

The calendar is available to winners that reside in the United States. Winners outside the United State will be awarded a 1-month PFM.

How to enter:
It's easy to enter, just reply to this thread with pictures of your mouth-watering side dishes.

Rules:

1. Entries must be homemade by the member posting.
2. A photograph of the ingredients plus a photograph of the finished product is required.
3. Tell us WHY this side dish is important to you (family tradition, funny story, etc...) A sentence or 2 is fine, if you need more to explain, that's even better. Extra consideration for a good story may be given.

The judges have finished judging (and gorging). After careful consideration, and a bit of time to recover from their post-meal food coma, we have our winners!
