As for the Saturday night fish fry, I'll bring taters, what else can I do to "coordinate"? I'd be glad to help.

Looks like we now have 14 people but I would hope it would be more like 22-25. I've been looking at this and here is what I think we will need to make a fish fry happen:

fish ( a bunch)
taters (covered by Babweiner +?)
slaw
hush puppies
beans (covered by shortdraw +?)
catsup and tartar sauce
maybe a large sheet cake (from SAM's or Walmart)
salt/pepper & breading (I'll cover this) (Also, I've got the hot dogs/brats/buns/mustard/onion covered for Friday evening.)

someone to:
clean fish
be cooks helper (bread and tote fish)

I think we have enough cookers and Dave has some oil but I think we need a couple of guys to bring a 3 gal jug of Lou Anna's Peanut oil each. We can save what we don't use for later.

We will see what you guys think and go from there (or cancel.)

Floyd

John and I have the been covered...we can do a cake if you want us too...we can probably help clean or cook fish if need to...just let me know

I will do the slaw dressing!

I'll bring ketchup and tarter along with the taters, I'm working on a way to mount my fry cutter now but would welcome another.

Count me in for all of the oil, Floyd or Dave do you know the best place to buy it?

Kirk, after thinking about it I think we could get by with a 3 gal jug and a 1 gal. Over the holidays Crest foods had the best price around, but Academy sometimes has a good price also.

Babw...I prefer gurls!

Can we use vegetable oil instead of peanut oil? Cooking for a group and using peanut oil could be a problem for folks that are or could be allergic to peanuts. I switched years ago and the fish and hush puppies taste great....

We could, if we know that's a problem for anyone but I've switched to about everything over the years and always gone back cause of greasy fish. Hush Puppies and fries not so bad. Your call.
