Chef Sara: "I made cover crops with pot liquor, smoked pork, and cornbread. There's a little bacon fat in the cornbread and the pot liquor."

Judging

Vineet Bhatia: "Nice balance of flavors on it. Had a little sweetness. Visually, I think it was a little unappetizing." 

Tom Colicchio: "It's just that the sauce is a little murky looking. The pot liquor is something you'd find in the south. It's lovely, but it is not known to be pretty."
