Churchmouses Memorial get together.

[Mgderf]

I don't want to step on Tara's plans...but....if you can commit that grill - everything else will fall in place pretty easily.

As to carry-ins....I would say that can be detailed after a head count but we will let Tara decide that.

I can donate some non-bambi hamburger also...

It's a griddle, not a grill, but that's even better.
I can cook fish, bacon, pancakes... on the griddle.
Can't do that on a grill.
The griddle has been committed for the day, as long as it will be used.
I don't want to drag it an hour from home for nothing, but would enjoy cooking burgers for Tim's friends and family.

Thought griddle - typed grill. You might see that I said I was simple minded.

A large griddle is the ticket for these kind of events. I, err...my wife has a long history of hosting events for any occasion which means I am qualified labor.

 

[DaMousesGirl]

I'm in, and I can bring:
Somewhere around 15-20 lbs of ground venison for Bambi burgers.
I can also bring a Flatiron griddle (775" cooking surface) big enough to cook around 30 burgers at a time, and run the griddle.
Condiments can also be supplied.

That would be so great!! Thank you so much me and my mom are trying to make a list of who is bringing what so we don’t get confused. The griddle would be amazing!!!!

Poll added for attendance.

 

[DaMousesGirl]

I don't know at the moment if I can make it, but am more the willing to make a monetary donation to help cover any expenses.

 

[ChrisK]

Fresh ground 80/20 to me would be the best. I think that’s what CM would do. I personally never liked pre-frozen patties.

 

[Bigtanker]

Per DaMousesGirl request, here is the thread to post what food items and such you'll be bringing.

The food thread for Churchmouses Memorial

This thread will be dedicated to who is bringing what to the memorial. Food, cooking supplies, drinks and any of the other necessities to make this event happen. Please post them here so Tim's daughter will have a little bit easier of a time keeping track of it all.

Sounds to me like you're volunteering to pat out all the burgers. Thanks!

Would not be the first time.

 

[bcannon]

Im in, I'd be glad volunteer some labor also.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

I'm in and will be glad to arrive early and help with set up.

 

[rkwhyte2]

I'm also in and will help wherever I am needed.

 

[Haven]

I'm in, I live close and can show up early to help and/or stay late to help. I can also bring a portable gas grill that has 339 sq. in. cooking area.

 

[Bigtanker]

Bump

 

[Cameramonkey]

I'm in. I can help cook or wherever there is a need.

I can bring pounds of ground burger meat if necessary but would need to pat out patties...seems like frozen from GFS/Sams/etc might be the way to go for ease and speed.

THIS. I get the feeling this is going to be a pretty sizeable celebration. The ability to slap burgers on the grill and go will be a huge help.

My 15YO loves hamburgers, and I find I waste too much time making my own vs throwing frozen pucks on the grill.

Not too hard though.

Form into a ball, lay on wax paper, use a large dinner plate and press until desired thickness. Presto, one even thickness round burger.

Personally, I like to make them large 5-7" and thin then cook over very hot coals, they sear nicely, cook quickly and shrink to just the right size (if ground chuck 80/20).

This is where I'm at. I would very much like to attend the memorial and celebrate the life of our beloved friend CM but I'm unfortunately unable to travel due to my health issues.

If there is any other way, I can contribute please feel free to PM me and let me know and I would gladly do so.

Off-topic for this thread, but I hope your issues get resolved quickly and fully.

I know I will bring my "good" SLR camera to record the day, it deserves more than just a bunch of cellphone pics.
