2007 Oscar Picks: Best Actor

We'll keep the Oscar fun rolling along as we ease on into the mains!
Leonardo DiCaprio, The Departed: Few young actors are more versatile than this former teen hearthrob. As the Oscar nod tells us, Leo is all grown up, and ready to please a crowd. If you have a good butcher, consider a saddle of DiCaprio with a rosemary/balsamic glaze!
Ryan Gosling, Half Nelson: Don't be fooled by the name -- this Gosling has no feathers or beak! Instead roast chopsof  this sadeyed heartbreaker paired with a muscular Italian red!
Peter O'Toole, Venus: Always Orrins in our hearts, but this blue eyed devil should only be prepared by trained chefs. His gallbladder contains a potent neurotoxin!
Will Smith, The Pursuit of Happyness: Despite the "Fresh Prince" moniker, Jazzy Jeff's sidekick actually gets better with age! Rinse Will thoroughly, pat dry, sprinkle with Maldon salt and let stand in your fridge 2-3 days before serving with new potatoes and a blood orange gastrique!
Forest Whitaker, The Last King of Scotland: This Ghost Dog is perfect for a crowd, but Idi's size can be daunting! Rather than playing the Crying Game, grill out! For a delicious twist, grill over mesquite, or grate dried chipotles on top before serving!
