1) For this epic entry: https://steemit.com/steemitsandwichcontest/@carolynstahl/steemit-sandwich-contest-jaybird-faux-chicken-club-with-spicy-eastern-pickle

2) Most of you probably know how much I love my meat sandwiches & this is probably the main reason why this entry came out on top this week.. Bc it impressed the hell out of me without having any meat in it. It also paid homage to one of my favourite bar sandwiches the club house! 

3) Really enjoyed the shredded sautéed tofu preparation with red, yellow and orange sweet peppers, mushrooms, onion, soy sauce, salt and pepper. It seemed to come out perfect and no doubt had a great texture and taste. Also the combo with the pickled stuff probably interacted quite well. 

4) Adhering to the 3 bread layer tradition of the club, there was also room for a nice array of veggies, which likely added that refreshing quality, as well as the interesting addition of a sweet and sour sauce.  I can see this working well with tofu, not necessarily with a meat club tho. 

5) Visually stunning, presentation was on point with great lookin' photos and colour schemes! 

6) All in all, great entry!

1) @alandefong's Human's best friend which also looks amazing and must have tasted great with the pancakes with smoked ham & cheese sauce.

<center>https://steemit.com/steemitsandwichcontest/@yesslife/steemit-sandwich-contest-week-33-cordon-bleu</center>

1) Let me say that choosing 3rd place was actually the most difficult part of Week 33's Contest for me.  There were at least 6 entries up for the spot and I really hummed and Hahed over who was taking this coveted prize. Alas, it was @yesslife who's entry seemed to keep my focus while bouncing back and forth between entries. 

2) One of the things that impressed me about this entry was that despite a lack of clean & clear photos (which of course I always like), this entry had an abundance of other qualities that shown through to make up ground.  A bit of an "ugly betty" so to speak lol.  

3) so....Lets start with the chicken breast.  I love how Yessica started out with the raw stuff, marinated/spiced it and then stuffed it with ham lol.  Meat stuffed with meat! Then she breaded it and fried it! Bam...Creative in my mind (especially the ham stuffing)

4) Some addition of classic sandwich veggies, lettuce and tomatoes and then the interesting choice to add fries (not traditional french fries), some odd yellow butter fried fries to her sandwich! 

5) I also laughed quite a few times throughout this entry, only some of the time bc of the apparent language barrier (don't hate me, it's all in good fun) 

6) all in all, great entry, maybe her best yet.

## <center>Featured Entries: (I will for the most part only be featuring the "Outstanding Achievement" winning entries in this section)</center>
#
@tesscooks4u - No big surprise here.  Tess has been kicking Sandwich ass since her debut and continues to create beautifully crafted artisan style sandwiches, focused in a vegetarian style.  No doubt these gems are flavourful, healthy and creative to the max! Well done! 
https://steemitimages.com/DQmYjKpGMRkUA7NxxYuk9vYry4NqU1qo32xRhG8cgYD5V2N/IMG_7293.jpg

@mondoshawan - A bit of an unexpected "oddball"  entry, this debut sandwich resonated with me on several levels.  I enjoyed the ingredients choice, the fact that it was a simple and sloppy breakfast type sandwich with egg juices spewing out everywhere.  And there were some nice additives such as the sweet and sour sauce and rocket. Not to mention the entertainment level was quite high!

@birdsinparadise - A solid creation, creative ingredients and probably the first time anyone has ever used Kobe beef in their entry.  I really dug the Grilled Goats Cheese aspect among other ingredients combined together, which undoubtably made this sandwich delicious.  All in all great job! https://steemitimages.com/0x0/https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmUfSCuabSgLSaUpDYWbbLnjz8SAnustXZsrpRt7PVZNH8

## <center>SELECTING WINNERS!</center>
#
1) @jaybird: I select the winners based on a variety of parameters.  Just do your thing and have fun with it.  I'm considering many factors such as presentation, ingredients & originality, creativity, community opinion & artistic ability just to name a few.  PLEASE make sure to follow the rules! They are easy to follow and help prevent the tragedy of Null entries!

2) There are now 3 prizes. First Prize = roughly 50% of the prize pool 

3) Second Prize dubbed the "Veto Vote" = roughly 30% of the prize pool + the honour of selecting the following weeks second prize winner.  This prize is ideally given to an entry that although it did not win the contest, showed distinction among all the other entries.  This could be a feature such as it was the community favourite, it used the most bazaar ingredients, or, it was just the best looking sandwich etc.  IMPORTANT! The "Veto Vote" holder may not vote on his or her own sandwich to be selected as the second prize.  However, they are still eligible to win First Prize should they enter the contest that week.

4) Third Prize will be roughly 15% of the prize pool

5) Roughly 5% of the pool goes towards the "Outstanding Achievement Awards"

### <center>Week 32's Veto Vote holder is: @steemit-foodie and was selected by @lizelle who was week 31's Veto Vote holder. Thank you both for your participation!</center> 
#
* IMPORTANT! "Veto Vote" holders must always present their final selection to @jaybird in confidence and allow the news to be  revealed in an officially "Who Won Steemit Sandwich Contest" blog post.  Deviation from this method will result in a forfeit of the Veto Vote and thus, the selection will be consider null and a new winner will be chosen by @jaybird. 

* Veto Voters can contact @jaybird through or Steemit.chat username: jaybird or discord jaybird#4732 . If for whatever reasons, the Veto Vote winner does not select an entry in the following weeks contest, I will be the default second prize selector for that week.
