OK, Just so I understand we need to prepare for 450 people.  50 of which are children who somehow expect a special kids meal.  We will need 80 quarts of beef stew and about 40 quarts of veggie stew.  We will need 10 seets of cornbread and the same of browines probaly more.  We can not use the kitchen, We can not set up outdoor cookers to prepare the stews. Yet we have to bring 120 quarts of pre made stews and soups up to a safe serveing temp and hold them there while we serve.  A standard Hot plate or any eletrical heater will not do it.  It will not have the capacity.  To not let us use the kitchen is makeing this impossible.  Will they at least let us bring up the stews to a boil at serveing.  I have a 40 qt. pot and an 80 qt pot we could use and then just bring home for cleaning to cut down time in the kitchen.  We will have to meet at Wolfs  the weekend before and cook bread and brownies and it will probaly be an all weekend project with home equipment.  We will need to
 set a time limt on lunch as we have to keep the hot food at a safe temp.  I do not know how the brats will be prepared but this is a hell of a lot of sausage and w will have to get it hot there.  I am sorry to be so blunt but this has turned in to a huge project and I can not understand how they expect us to accomplish this without a kitchen.

For those that want more info


First the number of people has gone up,

we heard four hundred last year and they sold out

also 30-50 childrens meals

cooking on site ...they do have stoves and such available, but becuase of feast being prepared,cooking time, clean up time,.........We will most likely have to precook anything we can .

(my part) $$$$$$$......we said $5 a head ...we were told 15-16% goes to the landlord..we said ok, that makes it $4.20-4.25 a head


food...so far beef stew,veg stew, hot dogs,corn bread, white bread ,cheeses,fruit,cookies,brownies....we do not do beverages.....we do need final menu and ingedient list soon so they can post it.

we will need to get cooking(haha) sometime end of Nov.......have an estimate for Feastocrat to ok, so checks can be made out for shopping.

donation gladly accepted...(anybody have half a steer)

See you at Wolvesbane
