Last one was on Sat. They booked for 60 but only 29 showed...Oh well, they will enjoy our leftover Tri-Tip and Marv's Famous Chicken.

My wife and I worked all 9 jobs in this 11 day run. One we had our son-in-law help because they ordered 4 appitizers. The extra help was much appreciated.

Now we have a week and a half off before our next event (June 6) so we are finishing butts today for that event.

Wed we are heading to the beach (3 hr drive) for 2 nights. We have ocean front room reserved with private balcony and fireplace in room..

We plan on a fire on the beach (no bbq) for a nice romantic and relaxing couple of days...

Kids are grown so will just be us and our 3 dogs..They love the beach too... Laughing

Marv, I thought you said you did everything on-site? I'm confused.

Yes, we serve everything 'on site'. For things requiring 'long cooks' we either start at an event the day before needed or cook at an approved comissary as required by our local HD... Wink

I'm still confused. Is your FEC at your commisary? Please don't take this the wrong way but in the other post you said you were cooking for a large event in a week and going to freeze it and I thought the FEC was at your house. I'm still trying to learn the fine lines of on site and what can be done not on site and I know all states are different.

well just know that while caterers are doing things the all natural way with smoke and fire, and us heathens are creating better BBQ through chemistry with our cheating, juicing, and drug-dealer mentalities...

Of course I still havent heard of anyone cooking their BBQ the week before, freezing it, and then bringing it to a competition to reheat and turn in...

My FEC-100 is on wheels and easily loaded onto my trailer for transport to a site...be it a comissary or otherwise.

You of all people as a caterer yourself (I think you said you catered did you not??) know what rules and regulations are and what is and is not allowed by the HD.

So let it go....

I think you are thinking of his brother/dad, who also post on here with Rannuci's in their user name. Unless I'm mistaken, Alex doesn't cater, he does comps.

According to his/their website Alex does catering as well but in NC. So he SHOULD know the 'ins and outs' of catering and what is allowed and not allowed by the HD..

Yes, I just started catering so I am trying to learn the right way.
Wow, sorry, didn't mean to ask about such a touchy subject. Guess we can't talk about the do's and don'ts anymore? Well, back to the money it is.

Marv

You are a big help to people around here and I have had a lot of respect for your operation. But, when you edit because folks question the possible contradictions of your posts, it kind of hurts your credibility.

Regards--Jeff

I share what I know with all of you who care to know. I do not encourage nor endorse anyone to do anything that is not legal.

If you are in question if something is legal in your area...I suggest you consuslt your local HD

As a caterer we all do things a little bit differently.
