Sturgis

Slow Joe's · Mar 11, 2008

Hello all,
I have a good chance of vending in Sturgis at the rally. I have done some small vending jobs and I am in no way thinking this is even remotely similar. I am asking if any of you all have vended there? What can we expect to take for food quantities? How much help might be needed? What type of things can I expect. I believe we will be just outside of town on the main drag.
I know this is a huge job but it sounds like an awful lot of fun and a great experience.
Any help, tips, and suggestions would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Joe

Get you two or three of the best looking biker babes you can find to take the orders.

The hell with the biker babes, You need a grill crew like this.

A buddy of mine took this photo at the Playboy mansion in SoCal at a charity fundraiser for Parkinson's Disease. He also sponsors my wife & I for our Team In training cancer functions (marathons and century bike rides to raise money for cancer victims).

I think this thread may need to be moved to the wood pile after that photo. OOPS. Sorry!

What kind of equipment do you have?

grillfella · Mar 12, 2008

Make sure you have your canopies, I don't know how hot it will be, but believe me they are worth it.

I will have a 30' trailer with an FE500. A lot of the meat will be pre cooked and vacuum sealed. We will probably rent a refrigerated truck also.

So it won't be 15 3/4 racks in a Bar-B-Chef then.

Let's just say a chitload! What type of eating acomidations will you have? I think that would be something to consider when planning menu. I would consider Kickass offer. Might be good to have a knowledgeable assistant even to be able to take a break. That is if you want to be associated with his kind.
