MM BBQ bin - Chris - 10-13-2004
Tonight we purchased some items for the club to use when grilling out- at the track, autox, and other get togethers. We'll replace what gets used, but speak up if there is something you really think we should add.
List so far:
Large bin with lid (plenty of room left for other food/drinks)
paper towels (3 rolls)
10lb bag charcoal
trash bags
100 paper plates
spatula
tongs
ketchup
mustard
and of course: 4 bottles of Tony Roma's
-original
-blue ridge smokies
-carolina honeys
-hickory
Other items:
blue painters tape (for car numbers)
2 bottles shoe polish (autox window numbers)

how about... steak, and hamburgers?
- ScottyB - 10-14-2004
maybe a box of matches and a small empty gatorade jug or something to hold water to put out the grill with?
- Chris - 10-14-2004
ah yes... matches. I have some here I'll add.
as far as food- we'll either buy that before an event or each person brings their own. This bin isn't refrigerated!

The grill (and "big blue") has been present at nearly every NASA event in the past 3 years.

it was not present at the last one and when I brought it up for this coming event nobody said they wanted to grill and Mike specifically said he'd rather bring $$$ and buy food at the store. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for grillin, just seems like the support is waning.

Every time we've tried to pool in some $$ to bring food or go to walmart for food its been a mess due to people not paying up, or people that want to eat that dont have any cash, or people that are instructing/working that get lunch anyways.
- Chris - 10-14-2004
well maybe now that we have this, more grilling will get done... :?
- Dragon - 10-14-2004
Grilling is cool and all, but still I'd rather have the free food from my meal ticket than have to pay for anything. Not to mention there are times where I get little to no break so making it over there for the specific time y'all are grilling isn't an option.

yuppppp. i'm not stingey (sp?) but i don't like buying meals for people that don't have the courtesy to say "hrm, this meal is good. so good that i bet it wasn't free, maybe i should think about who paid for it and give them a few bucks?"
- G.Irish - 10-14-2004
We just have to get food set up before hand using paypal or whatever. Most of the time even if I put in some money on others didn't I'm still eating for a lot less than I'd pay otherwise.
Maybe we should just find a sort of standard assortment of food we buy at the track and find out the price. Let's say $20. For 6 people that's about $3.50 a person. No big deal no?

Tried that once....
I dont like to have a defeatest attitude about things, but if you want to try it, go ahead - we just havent had any success with it in the past.
- bluhayz - 10-14-2004
just grill, and make us bastards pay like 1 buck for a burger... and god forbid if we want a drink... a buck for that too... but if I were ever at an event, I'd be willing to throw a fiver down on some good grilled food :-)
- .RJ - 10-14-2004
Yeah but who buys the burgers before we go?
And what if no one wants to pay up for them? Then who ever has bought the burgers, snacks, etc is out $20-$30.

you're living in a perfect world. this isn't a perfect world.
- white_2kgt - 10-14-2004
We've been through the whole, pay back someone for buying food, that doesn't work, fine, that's not the point anymore. In the latest SP thread the idea was brought up for everyone to bring whatever they wanted to grill, and even that didn't gain support. I appreciate the effort chris, but I afraid its all for not.
