I was thinking of roasting some pork shoulder Friday night in the kitchen for pulled pork.

I can get rolls at restaurant depot on the way up.
Big tubs of potato salad, macaroni salad and cole slaw are also available there

I'd also suggest some sort of vegetarian thing that can be grilled.

Paneer shishkabobs were a hit in the past

Just let me know how many of each thing you want to get, so I can keep the OP updated :)

Last years veggie burgers and veggi dishes were mostly ignored and ended up in the trash because noone wanted to take them home.

This year I am asking those who do not want whats on the menu to bring their own, and I will be happy to cook it, if it needs cooking. The vast majority of food eaten last year is whats on the menu this year :)

I'll grab jug of potato salad and 12 dozen hamburger buns

I'll make pulled pork with bbq sauce that can be kept warm at one end of the grill.

I'll also grab a block of cheese slices 5 lbs

Silly question (and i'm still deciding if I'm coming or not) but if we want to help serve, cook, et all, can we do it in character?

Sure! If you like!

Okay! Count me in! Makes sense for Thalia to be helping with the food service.

I will bring the condiments.

Between Pendarvin and the In's basement, we have 80# (4 large bags) of charcoal. Can get more if needed

Watermelon will be there, x5

We have 40 hot dogs in the freezer

I will be spending Friday night at Sac, so I can help some then or Saturday morning.

Im planning on being there Friday too

Making pulled pork

Possibly making cupcakes as treats for the kids and adults

Maybe late night fire at the Kaladonia fire pit

I will be there and willing to help out with cooking and serving

Still up in the air if i'm coming with family. However if we do come i can bring some (or a lot) of polish kielbasa. From a polish butcher shop not the prepackaged store bought kind (which in my opinion doesn't taste anything like it should).

I'll be able to get the remaining charcoal bags I think. PM me with the poundage needed so I don't over or under-buy.

4 medium bags of charcoal bought. There is as much poundage as 3 large bags.

I'm willing to help with the cooking/set up/serving, etc., but due to work, I'd be getting to Camp around 2:15-2:30 p.m. Would that be alright?

Sign me up to cook lol, let's get some grilling on

That would be great Jeff!

If you want I can bring some chips and things for ya.

That would be great Chris. Can you get 8 of those really big bags of Chips, Popcorn, Pretzles and cheese doodles?

I will bring the ice.

Haven't seen an update in a few days, so we don't know if this is still current. Is there anything we can bring, other than my two hungry little brothers?

This is current as of yesterday :)

If anyone can grab cupcakes ect, for kid snacks/ treats

It would be appreciated
