Executive Chef
Just got home from my gig at the Winery today. It is almost 11:00 pm. Got to the jobsite Sunday at about noon! We thought we'd get 600 so I planned on 300 meals. We sold 108! I just broke even, but she is giving me a case of wine! Oh well! It was appx 90 and stifling! I know you Tejas and Southern boys are used to it, but up here it means folks don't EAT! She said 600 showed up throughout the course of the day, but only 108 actually wanted to eat pulled pork, beans, sausage , salmon, and slaw! I managed to sell about 10 leftover butts for $20/ea! I'm stuck with 100 sausages, 3o lbs of slaw , 5 gallons of beans, and 20 lbs of salmon! I don't have a large freezer! The good part was two great BBQ buddies dropped their lives and came out to help me for free in the heat! Uncle Bubba ( Kevin) and ZBQ (Neil) spent all day sweating and taking orders from an a-hole like me and didn't complain one bit! When I last saw Neil, I thought he was going to pass out! Hopefully, he is sleeping in his nice air conditioned hotel room as I write this! He stayed up all night with me Sunday. We were rubbing 22 butts at midnite! Eating Slovaceks sausage with Texas Pepper Jelly on tortillas at 3:00 am! Well Neil, hopefully it did not scare you too much in your catering aspirations!
