I singlehandedly cooked dinner for ten. Big deal you say? I used to
cook dinner for three hundred for Ducks Unlimited. But I had lots and
lots and lots of help.
I cooked three sides of pork ribs, three boxes of chicken Rice-A-Roni,
shucked, snapped and boiled six ears of corn for twelve pieces and made
a Cole slaw for twelve. I used three glass casseroles to pack three-rib
sections into and baked at 250F for three hours and fifteen minutes. I
could have used a little more time, but it was fine.
Then I individually separated the ribs into 42 pieces and painted each
one with Bullseye.
I chose to tell everyone that it was buffet style and collapsed in my
La-Z-Boy while they served themselves. Oh, I also washed every damn
utensil and casserole as they became available while I cooked. I
encouraged everyone to eat more at any opportunity. We still have some
of everything left except the corn.
That was a one shot deal. I'm too old for this.
