OMG, go back and clean out the shelves, have a closing down the fall grill party. Like the price mistake in the UK with the coffee...

The stock people at this Piggly Wiggly have got to be the most incompetent I've ever seen. In addition to the T-Bones they had pks of ground beef marked down 50%, so we got 20 lbs for $30.
 
We had Thanksgiving potluck at the office - not traditional "thanksgiving" foods because we'll all have that next week. One lady's husband makes really good briskets and they brought one. And whatever sides people wanted to bring. I was happy to see pecan pie; of course I'm always happy about that.
 
I made a hot crispy New Orleqns style Muffuletta and an Italian salad.
You're killing me Rellgar :D

My son and I are both big Muffaletta fans. The only place left in town that serves them is on the other side of town, and unless you get a whole Muffaletta, it's too expensive.

Finding Muffaletta bread here is impossible. About the only Italian bread is Ciabatta, and there aren't any Sicilian breads. And the stores would give me a blank stare if I asked for Mortadella.

So I'm left with making Ciabattalettas or Kaiserlettas, LOL I guess I could just use regular Bologna instead of Mortadella, but I am OK with just Ham and Cotto Salami.

I did have some Olive Salad from Central Grocery, but when that ran out I made my own.

Here is my Ciabattaletta :)

1. how long did it take to prepare all these wonderful dishes
2. how long will you need to eat the leftovers
3. how many people will be there for dinner
4. how many people were needed to COOK, BAKE, AND FINISH ALL THAT???
 
1. how long did it take to prepare all these wonderful dishes about 2 days
2. how long will you need to eat the leftovers 3 days
3. how many people will be there for dinner 25
4. how many people were needed to COOK, BAKE, AND FINISH ALL THAT??? 2 for most of it, the other 5 family groups each cooked one item.
 
I made a large batch of spaghetti sauce that was loaded with ground beef and pork. I had a huge plate of it with yeast rolls and a side of diced cucumber marinated in a homemade vinaigrette dressing. I’m one contented camper right now.
Tomorrow I will take the majority of the sauce and make two lasagnas. One will get frozen for later and one will brighten my day tomorrow. I also took the remaining ham from thanksgiving and sliced it up, freezing four bags for sandwiches later on, and the bone with a lot of meat still on it for ham and bean soup later on. I love my food saver vacuum bag system. It really protects stuff for freezing.
