So the guys at the firehouse nominated me to do the cooking for a fundraiser they are running end of January.
The theme is that it'll be $30/person and you get to eat and drink all you want. Cocktail waitresses, televised sporting events, card games, etc. Basically it's a giant guys night out.
Anyway, they know I dabble in BBQ and even compete sometimes so they chose me. I want to live up to the expectations but I've never cooked for a large crowd before.
Brisket or pulle dpork seems like a no brainer. Ribs are my specialty so I'd like to have that in the mix. My buddy and I have been dying to try a beef clod but never could justify the expense because we never had enough mouths to feed. This might be a good chance to try that.
Factor in assorted sides and I really have no idea how much I need to buy. The guy running it asked if $300 would cover the costs. I said I thought it might but I really have no idea.
Can anyone give me an idea on how much I should be buying, what it would cost, and what I might be forgetting about?
