Sounds like a some fun events Jim!
We have a pig roast with steamed lobsters, clam chowder, roasted red potatoes, coleslaw, baked beans, fresh salads and drinks to provide for 15 guests.
Bartender service was additional.
We will be eating well but missing part of the game! _________________ BBQMAN

Superbowl? I thought that was cancelled after the packers were out! _________________ Just remember that the toes you may step on during your climb to the top will also be attached to the a$$es you'll be forced to kiss on your way back down! |

I got this thing happening by me where people just wander in with no warning, and they want 10-15 pounds of meat to take with them, I guess they think we have hundreds of pounds of stuff ready at any given moment or something.
I have zero reservations for the game right now, I ordered a little heavier than usual to compensate for my walk-ins who order big, and I fully plan on running out of product by mid-day.
If they do call ahead, they usually give us an hour. Nice huh? _________________ Just remember that the toes you may step on during your climb to the top will also be attached to the a$$es you'll be forced to kiss on your way back down! |

Well we usually close on Sundays,but decided to keep the drive thru open for party orders. Got lots of wing an rib orders in advance and were going to be there prepping anyways so why not make a few $$$$. Yeah folks don't get how long it takes to prepare the meats ahead do they,,,oh well if it were easy everyone would be doing it wouldn't they.... _________________ www.ridgeviewbbq.com

I guess we will have to agree to disagree, I love to cook, it might be a lot of work sometimes, like when I host the family Turkey Day dinner, but I never consider cooking hard work, sometimes it's a lot of work, but IMHO, it's easy work. _________________ Brinkmann Verticle Water Smoker

We made it thru the weekend and everyone was happy with their meals at all 3 events! Something of a suprise though is were selling a ton of wings today (Monday after Super Bowl) I would think most folks would be winged out?? _________________ www.ridgeviewbbq.com
