Does anyone have a cooler that they can bring?

Also, Nelson any luck finding a mini grill?

I don't have one huge cooler, but I've got four decent size ones I can bring.

 

[jimmyjam]

Coolness! I'm pressed for space so that's a big help.

Still didn't find envoyjoe to find out what he had, but I will have one - and it better not suck!!!

So grill - check, coolers - check, this is coming together nicely.

My wife makes a good potato salad I could bring that I think I bought it a few times. But would you guys rather me bring pulled pork again. Let me know either way. I will only be there Sat but will bring a container I can leave for everyone if anything is left over.

 

[MAY03LT]

No disrespect to the tater salad but pulled pork all day.:wootwoot:

 

[Black LT]

I agree with the pulled pork.
But just make it ahead of time, you don't want to spend the day making it at the show.



:wootwoot: 2 weeks:wootwoot:

 

[mikeinDE]

May, you can put me down for paper plates, paper towels, and cups

 

[jimmyjam]

so whats the grill situation exactly, i guess nelson is bringing one? i can always bring a few bricks and an old oven rack and do it redneck style over a dug out firepit...

 

[MAY03LT]

Someone had a tiny grill last year that worked out great with the smaller crowd. Nelson bought something similar.

 

[jimmyjam]

sweet... i've got some grill utensils (tongs, spatula, fork)

 

[MAY03LT]

We're getting a count of how many burgers/franks to get.

Traditionally, we'd grill:

Fri lunch
Fri dinner
Sat lunch
Sat dinner

Right now we're at 8 attendees. After consulting the quadratic formula, I figure 4 dozen of each. I'm open to suggestions if that sounds like it's not enough, or pah haps too much.

 

[jimmyjam]

4 doz seems safe. last time i was there we did pizzas friday night at the hotel but i'm sure if there are leftovers we will run through them sunday for an early lunch

 

[JPZ]

How many members are bringing a wife or significant other? I will bringing smoked pulled pork and would like to know how much to make for Sat. 4 lbs should make around 16 sandwiches. Hows that sound?

 

[MAY03LT]

That sounds good. As of today the total is 8 attendees.

 

[JPZ]

Sounds like you fellas will have leftovers for Sunday.

 

[Black LT]

Don't trust that - if you want some - eat up.
Last time you brought some - there was extra, but everyone wondered where it went - it just disappeared.

Bogarts!!!!!

It didn't go home with me but I MAY have an idea were it went.

 

[Black LT]

I was pondering on that an drew some conclusions.

 

[MAY03LT]

If the pulled pork doesn't fit you must acquit.

LOL Saturday is gonna be a great day...

 

[Black LT]

If anybody has a crappy card table they could bring, that'd be awesome.
The portable grill I'm bringing is for like setting on a table.
I suppose we could use one of the main tables but a small one would be nicer.

:wootwoot:

 

[JPZ]

Do I need to bring my little stove to heat the pork? It will be in a aluminum tray style pan. Figured I would bring it in this so I can just leave the whole thing there for Sunday. I will not be staying overnight.
Will I need to bring buns for the pork?

That would be great.

How many rolls do you think I should get? Also, which roll will work best in this application? Do I need a particular kind of roll, like a fancy one with sesame seeds, or just a standard monotone no frills roll?

 

[jimmyjam]

I'd figure we could use the grill with low heat to warm the pork

 

[Black LT]

I'll have gas. Wait, I mean yeah - that should work!

 

[BO TIE SS]

My plan is to come to the tent first. I've got 4 bags of chips to drop off as well as 3 coolers. (my 4th cooler contains my adult beverages)
Then I'll go check in at the hotel. I should be there before 2:00 PM. :wootwoot:

 

[JPZ]

IF its not too late regular buns will work. I also have pork on smoker now. Same amount if not more than last year. Ill be there around 9am tomorrow morning.
