Full Fledged Farker
Going to cook for a church function after easter, and was wanting to begin planning now. We will not be charging for the meal (accepting donations), so we want to keep it on the cheap. Also, I am toying with the idea of doing all the cooking during an all night cookout (contest style) in the parking lot of the church, and inviting others to join me. I might cook up sausages or tell people to bring their own meat and I will cook it up for them. Just trying to make it sort of fun.
Going to mostly cook Pork Butts since they are the most economical. I am going to have various groups bring side dishes (pot luck style) This is my 1st time cooking for more than 20.
What is the rule of thumb for feeding a big crowd (how much meat?), and what are some of the things I will need to get besides silverware, napkins plates, cups, buns, serving trays, tea/lemonade/water, tongs.
Would also love to hear any do's and don'ts!
