I have zero skill at planning for a group food event. But I am coachable. Tell me what to bring, and I can do that.

Also want to mention again for people looking for a campsite, I'll just be in my truck, so I can share the site with another rig.

I'm really excited to meet you all in person. I know Evan and Bill. Jerry D is like a brother to me. I don't think I've ever met anyone else. Stoked for good times and fellowship.

That said, as far as food goes, I can fill any holes. I'm a decent camp chef too. I'm planning on giving Jerry all the help he needs.

As someone not licensed to fish in Washington, I will stay back and man the fort. And the smoker.

A side of wings to go with meats?

I may be able to prep some veggies for grilling up too.

 

[Kado]

I’m thinking some kind of salad and maybe a dessert.

Grilled veggie kabobs…

I'll bring a bottle of whisky and some beer. And stuff for PB&Js. And chips/junk food.

I'm happy to bring something else to share for food. Just let me know what is missing. Maybe pancake mix, real maple syrup, and butter? Or cornbread to go with BBQ?

I am really looking forward to this gathering! I'll have some stuff to trade (mostly knives).

Last year was about two dozen. It's not a huge ordeal, just an excuse to get together, swap some gear, and eat some food.

Hoping for a bigger turnout!

He knows me and is still going to show up!!

Steaks I can do, perfectly. But not for a large group; my Weber Smokey Joe only holds two at a time.

With all the planned smoked meat and wings, another meat dish doesn't seem like the right thing.

Why do you hate America ?

Someone, or I thought, said they were making biscuits and gravy for breakfast. Is someone still doing that? I'm known for my B&G and could do that for breakfast. I could do scrambled eggs instead to go with it.

 

[Kado]

Can't have too much Biscuits and gravy!

 

[Ian Broadie]

It was fun, I should be able to make it since it's just up the road now.

@Jerry Daschofsky , please let me know if there is something I should prep or buy to help out.

I will need someone to bring at least one propane tank extra to use. Not sure outside of that.
