So.Cal. BBQ? Anyone Interested?

[Gilmar]

Next we figure out who brings what, and how much?

What, you want organization, too?

There's gonna be a run by the park this weekend to check out the facilities. I can bring BBQ tools and such, plus an ice chest and drinks. Food suggestions, anyone?

 

[DiskoVilante]

Alrighty, according to the poll, everyone likes 2pm.
So, using the powers I've vested in myself:

BBQ starts officially at 2PM.

But of course, you can be there a bit earlier if you like. I'm planning on being there earlier.
See you all!

You guys are unbelievably organized. A trial run? So cute.

I know El Spectre and Disko aren't drinkers, but I am, so I volunteer to fulfill any and all booze requests. I'll probably bring some Mike's Hard Lemonade for myself since I'm not much of a beer girl.

Is it too much to make little cheesecakes? I can do that, or make cookies. Something sweet, anyway.

I'm not sure if we're allowed to have alcoholic beverages at Griffith. We'll try and check this weekend though.

No.

No, it's not.

Just the idea makes me not need sex tonight.

"trial run" might be a bit much. I'd like to see if there are BBQs, or if I need to bring one, is all.

Okiedoke then. I've added myself(s) to the time pole (at the bottom of the pole, that's always the way it is) and 2pm is jake with me.

Script research trip delayed, so I'll be there!!! YAY!!

Food: Should I bring steaks? Can do.

 

[a.real.girl]

Ok, so little cheesecakes it is! I am pretty darn excited.

I can bring at least fruit salsa, which isn't salsa at all, but more like a fruit salad, served with baked cinnamon-sugar tortilla chips.

 

[Steven Howard]

I don't know if you can have booze in the park or not. I do know that you should keep your pants on at all times, especially if you're running for public office.

Anyway, I'll bring some hot dogs and hot-dog-eating equipment: buns, mustard, relish, ketchup for crazy people who put ketchup on hot dogs.

We should make sure somebody brings general picnic stuff. Paper plates, napkins, all that kind of thing. Do we have a final count of how many people are coming? (Count me as two, as there's a good chance my wife will be there.)

I can bring the mac nuts and the unsexy implements of devouring (paper plates, cutlery, paper towels, etc.) since I will not have access to a kitchen prior to the event.

 

[saganite]

Oh, fine. I guess I'll just bring regular lemonade, then, and keep the vodka in a flask in my trunk.

hcmom, my vow to eat lightly so as not to fill up before Seder is going to be severely tested here. Potato kugel and beef brisket do not hold a candle to the description above.

Crap. I was going to try and grab that since our fridge just broke. We'll probably do sodas and chips or something then and some brats. Anyone have any requests?

Indeed. It's wonderful, I can vouch for that!

If you don't want to do food that requires refrigeration, you might want to be in charge of large coolers with ice. You can use it to keep your personal stuff cold before/after the BBQ and kill two birds with one stone.

Being stuck with just a mini-fridge and coffee maker for the week prior to this, I am afraid my pot-luck options are fairly limited.

H, yer a guest so really don't sweat a thing about what to bring (rhymes, didja notice?).

This is a BBQ. At a BBQ, you barbecue meat things on a burny-hot, like outside stove thingy.

I would like to go to Omaha Steaks and get some very nice steaks for us, and they also have skinless chicken breasts too. Anyone okay for this? Haven't heard a peep yet (I ate them on Easter).
