So, I've heard of the chicken crossing the road, but never that rabbit, so I'm gather the odds will be on chicken Paella :becky:.

-------------
A couple of the items above I will be bringing - pig shots and some pizza dough & pizza toppings. I plan on having the Small/Midi Egg fired up with a 10" baking stone for making some personal sized pizzas. I'll also have a pizza peel, dough roller, and dough docker. Anyone is welcome to bring more dough and/or toppings as they wish to make their own pizza creation.

Dave - In regards to your question about how early folks are arriving, I can only say I plan on cooking brisket at home and will likely wander in around 9 AM. Would you have a little space available in the back of your shop for any items that can be dropped off a day early? I'm thinking my car might be a bit space challenged on Sat. If I can drop off some things on Fri like folding tables, canopy, Eggs, and chafers that would make my Sat a lot easier.
 
I'll do some chicken thighs, no sense in having too many wings. Any chance we will have a portable Santa Maria pit there, preferable with a flat expanded metal grid?

There's the Santa Maria pit on my trailer, but it has rolled steel not expanded. However, I do have the expanded metal from my home pit that I can bring it. Will the work?

Plenty of room, so bring them on by :thumb:.
 
I'll be leaving here on Friday morning.
Depending on traffic and stops I should be in Livermore by mid afternoon, and will be available to help with set-up etc.what ever ya need, Friday and/or Saturday.

In addition to a canopy, my chair, tables, small trash cans, I will supply:
Consumables available for use by all......

Consumable products inventory: approximated
250 6" styro bowls
250 6" paper plates
350 12" paper plates
350 ea HD plastic knives, forks, and spoons
500 dinner napkins
30 half size, steam table, deep aluminum pans
over half a roll (1000') of 12" foil
6 rolls paper towels

Oh yeah! lots of "Caution Tape" :shock:

The last head count I saw was 17 "for sure" with several more "possibles" with families and friends I'm guessing about 75-100 total, is that still accurate?

I'm hoping someone "in the know" will chime-in to let me know by Thursday, if the number of attendees is greater, so I can pick-up additional products, if needed.

OH! I will also bring some doughnuts Saturday morning.

See Ya There
 
Hey Rick, I think the total will be somewhere around 17 to 20, but I don't think we'll end up with 75 to 100. Probably more like 30ish, so I'm sure you've got enough of everything, even if 100 show :biggrin1:.
 
So far I haven't got any special requests to be at the store to terribly early, so as of now, I'm thinking 8:00 am, unless I hear otherwise, and coffee will be ready to go.

OK! cool...
I'll stop by the shop Friday afternoon.
Thanks
 
Dave, I am going to need your MAK running at 250 by 9am. I will need it for about 2 hours. Is that OK? With what I committed for food, I am going to be a busy guy!

Marty
I'll be in town on friday and I can be "another pair of hands" if ya need them. Let me know.
 
Scratch me off the list, my honey do list for thanksgiving is going to consume my whole weekend. I'm so bummed, it looks like it's really shaping up to be an epic bash.
 
I have to bail as well, I ended up being reminded that I am at a swim meet this weekend, it was quite a surprise. But, kids over BBQ is the rule for me, otherwise, I have no structure to my life at all.
