Separation of Powers
How about this?:
Beef: Pendragon
Chicken: Patten (you need a nom de blog)
Fish: Rex Otii
Lamb: Peregrinator/Pontifex
Or do we want to have a pork night instead of one of the above? Or else we can have Katie and the crew from Crepe Vine come up and cook for us.

Endorsements or Agitprop?
The Pendragon has claimed that Byron York and James Bowman both raved about his beef, yet if you follow the links, each remained completely silent on the subject. How can we be sure? Can we get Barbara Boxer to convene a hearing? Is this the TMR® blog or Pravda?
Trust (or not) but verify!

Food Fight!
Now lookit: What's with all these fancy sauces and obscure marine products like "ahi tuna"? May I put in a plug for old fashioned rib roast once again? I know, I know, I burned the hell out of it last year. But I've been practicing: The roast displayed here was pronounced by James Bowman, who knows a thing or two about criticism, to be the best beef he's ever tasted. Byron York concurred.
Now, what "ahi tuna" could get laurels like that?(Click on photo for larger, juicier, image--especially the second one.)

From Pontifex to Peregrinator
I have been changed by google to my other nom de blog "Peregrinator."
Actually what I heard today that I liked for a blog name would be "Pissed-off Pelican" which is Maggie's new nickname from a friend who can't say "Episcopalian."
Sounds about right.

Time to start the kvetching
As we are less than a month out from TMR™ we should start bitching about the menu. Steve, crank up the blog.
My suggestions
Fish:
Seared Ahi with garlic-wassabi butter
Lamb:
Leg of lamb with Alton Brown's dijon-garlic paste
Chicken:
Spice rubbed breasts with dijon-chive sauce
Beef:
filet mignon with mushroom-bourbon sauce
Pork:
Ribs. Big, messy bbq ribs
or
Pork tenderloin in a honey hoisin sauce
Do I hear a goddammit you guys out there?
