Okie Dokie fellas... I processed the hog today. I have enough meat to feed a good sized crowd of hungry guys. We need a few other items if you want to serve this meat 'Family Style.' I think I have enough meat to feed 20-25+ people per meal. If other items are pitched into the spread, we should have a feast all day Saturday for a fraction of the cost of hiring a caterer. Breakfast Saturday. I have 15 pounds of fresh sausage. Want some breakfast burritos? Someone grab some eggs, tortillas, peppers, hot sauce (not you ILL!) Lunch Saturday Carnitas! I have 10 pounds of fresh ground pork. I need someone to grab some limes(8-10), onions(4), more tortillas (several dozen, figure 2-3 per person). butter, tortilla chips and hot sauce (not you ILL!), shredded cabbage, grated cheese, sour cream, guacamole? Supper Saturday 20 pounds of hindquarters. This is in 4 pieces, 5 pounds each. I plan to put them on the smoker/grill sometime Saturday morning and to serve shredded pork sandwiches for supper Saturday. We need buns, tomatoes, lettuce, BBQ sauce, chips. I also have some forelegs that I will put on the grill for munching (caveman lunchables). I will bring the liver, kidneys, and heart, in case anyone wants to stir up some liver and onions or kidneys and eggs, fried heart, etc. I have four pieces of backstrap that I will smoke/grill as needed to make on the fly snacks. You guys want to pitch in a few things (see above then post what you are going to bring) and it should be a fun day full of food. Each persons total cost should be MUCH less than even a single meal, imho. I am bringing my Honda so I will not have all the camping/cooking materials that I brought the last time. I plan to leave my Honda at the hotel/motel where the other guys are staying. Anyone with a truck and cellphone mind coming to get me there and brining me to the Farm? I only have 4" of ground clearance. We also need a small chainsaw to cut the DEAD wood that we will need to cook/grill/smoke the pig. Volunteer? TRG |
What Bung. said. Hey, TRG. I can pick up at the hotel. How's about this idea--You can park at the Hun gate, then we can transport you to the cabin, unless you have to Shower, shave, sh!t. I'll bring some tortillas, peppers. and eggs. I'll ask my in-laws to make some eggrolls also. |
Thanks, Bung. You ain't bad yourself either.  LT, sounds like you got half the breakfast stuff, if someone else brings the same we should have plenty. No need for one guy to cover all the meal. Keep in mind we are talking about feeding 20-25+ people. Meat is fairly easy to stretch if more than expected show up to be fed. If we run out of buns or tortillas it gets a little tougher to stretch. I figure we need 4-6 eggs per person, so 20-25 guys means 7-10! dozen eggs. Tortillas 3 each = 5-8 dozen, etc. Also, the way I have it planned, leftover tortillas, hot sauce from breakfast can be used at lunch, left over carnitas can be used for supper, etc. Ice chest refrigeration is good for what we need. Anything leftover from Saturday can go into Sunday's 'Brunch.' Mojo, I am concerned about getting OUT if a sudden rain squall (or Toranado - Edit by LordTrader) comes up. My little Honda is soooo light, it is pure Hell on a wet/muddy road. I am going to try and swing a ride out from the hotel in a pickup/SUV. If it doesn't fall into place that way, then I will drive to the gate. I'll see what the weather is like and go from there as we get closer to 'The' weekend. TRG |
Small, unseeded. Psychology of food. A guy is going to eat TWO large or small doesn't matter, as long as he gets TWO! I think we should be planning to feed 20-25 guys, two buns (maybe three) each means 100 buns (plan for a few snacks, extras) 12 packages of buns needed. Three heads of lettuce, 2 dozen tomatoes. TRG |

Also... I have a large cast iron skillet and cast iron Dutch oven. Don't forget that we will need paper plates, napkins, cookies, plasticware etc., other things that 'flesh out' a meal. If you also have meat that you want to pitch in, feel free. 'Hun Farm Feast' is the idea. TRG |
Dude you really need to read before you post.
|
Yeah TRG, you bitch! I'm sleeping in the van with Mojo! |
OK. I change my stance--threesome ain't bad. 
|
In the immortal words of Deon Sander.... "Boaf!" Bring both. A brisket and some trimmings. I am sure that some might want a brisket sammich instead of pork, and if trimmings included some potato salad....yum! TRG |
|
Ok here is the plan: LT has the food needed to complete the Breakfast menu. Gloftoe has jumped in for the supper needs. I will provide the materials for lunch. Fullclip has a brisket that will be used as an alternative to pork sandwiches for the evening meal. If a few others (Citrabia?) pitch in for plates, spoons, forks, etc. then we should be good to go for the day's meals. We DO NEED a chainsaw to cut dead wood for smoking/grilling. Limbs/twigs are not going to be enough. We are going to need some thicker wood if we are going to keep that smoker humming for 24 hours. TRG PS. 82nd is in charge of the port and cigars. I remember that port, but only barely, seems like Jim drank more of it than I did.

Can you grab a couple bags of tortilla chips to go with the sauce? Also, if you are NOT kidding about your chili, then bring it as well, or make it on site. Chili on a breakfast burrito is one of life's finer pleasures. TRG |
Dude! read the Disclaimer! and i did read it. I was offering to pick up some other stuff if he needed it. Ya'll know, i bet we will have to eat on other days besides saturday. |
Plenty of dead wood. Might need to send out a PU and a crew to gather it all, but there was plenty of deadfalls last Spring. TRG |

Damn,how I envy you guys! I would give up one of my testicles......er make that one of TheRedGoat's testicles or both of ilikegegs'.....to be able to join you guys! What is the chance of the Hun inviting me in Oct when we are there for gunstock? Could some of you put in the good word for me with the Hun? I promise: -I will not chop down any trees on the property, like TRG does. -I will not take up as much space as 1GR....or make you chase armadilos. -I will not take anybody's chair. -I will not bed with TRG...or anyone else for that matter. What I will do is: Be polite,useful and cooperative around the farm. Come on guys! You invited 1GR.What does he have that I don't?  Talk to the Hun on my behalf, and tell him to invite me in Oct.Please??? |
Well, it's a good start. Posted by Sir EdSr: Could some of you put in the good word for me with the Hun? I have no problem, but I don't know about the other members, especially TRG and Legs--they are very picky as who to hang around with. |
Ed, I am really sorry to be the one to tell you this, but I guess no one else is going to explain this to you. Honestly, we would have invited you already, but ETH is very firm on the rules. There is a "No White Trash" policy in place for the Farm. If we can get ETH to back off on that rule, then maybe we can get you onto the property. Until then, you will just have to live vicariously through these threads. We will take plenty of pics of the food, beer, guns and campfire. We will post these pics to 'help' you, not 'taunt' you, mmm-kay? TRG Ps. If you heard Mojo is a gentleman, then you need to find a new source of information. Mojo is one of the worst offenders. |
Sorry to hear that you have lost your testicles
Money talks
A good word ? Is there one ?
Umm, talk to TRG, he knows 1GR better than anyone.
I have always wanted to see Captain Kangaroo bump fire an AK47. I will put in a good word for you with ETH as long as you bring the red jacket. 
|
Captain Kangaroo...bump firing... the GayK while hunting armadillos, fishing for snakes and swilling cold beer! TRG |
|
You two are lucky that I am such a nice person! What kind of barbarian goes fishing for snakes and hunting for armadillos? The other white trash connoisseur,is disrespectful to the idol of many children across the country during the late 60's and 70's! Allah protect anyone from eating that pork too. It is probably related to the one that shits on the Muslim in the sig line that ihumplegs uses in FA . |
