ok i will say it... its going to be a FUNtastic time...

Silly mayan .....



FOOD



Besides bacon wrapped dove breasts anybody bringing anything?

I know we decided in the past that since our eating schedules and habits don't coincide on these trips there's no reason to plan big but it seems like we could do a meal or two. I'd be willing to pitch in.

Maybe grill up an evening or afternoon "kickoff" meal the first day or something for the ride home.

I believe Brian as charter (the man) master will be starting the food conversation pretty soon...

i am willing to bring something for the communal meals.

I've tried to start it twice already.......................

as far as the dove, Mark & I are working in earnest to hit 100
so everyone gets 4 of them beauties!

once we start getting some volunteer action posted up, I'll make a list.

might as well start it here & now.

needs:
Main course meats
potatoes
veggies
eggs
Beans (?)
breakfast meats
breakfast pastries
plasticware/plates
condiments/ spices
booze/mix/cups for the Magarita mach.

feel free to add to this if necessary

All drinks/ other munchies should be considered personal & planned for accordingly

Billy is already auto-volunteered for the Pico de Gallo

I've got to go to Progreso in a couple of weeks. I can get some 2killya.

I have 2 dozen tamales for food pot. Maybe some sausage need to check on that

I will bring Jalapenos, Onions, Bacon & toothpicks & 200 tortillas for the Dove breast & breakfast tacos.

Jim is still gonna bring some smoked wild Pork he shoots off his feeder right?

pretty sure, yeah.
& that stuffed pork loin he brought in August was fantastic!

I'll donate to his beer bill

It looks like ill be on this well pad till it time to head for Port A. so I can kick in paper plates, solo cups, and plastic ware.. If needed..

i will bring Macaroni and potato salad (enough for two meals) as well as a few bags of chips for snacking...

pork is covered .

trolling question.

I only have a 6/0 wide for trolling. Anyone recommend a small something to troll already rigged for wahoo?

If we are going to do the meal thing, I can have some more tamales made. I really don't care either way, I tend to sleep through most group meals. Including swordfish sashimi, that I am sad I missed. I got into some Cap Russell grilled and that was some of the best fish I have ever had.

Since we tend to have different eating schedules on these trips it might be a good idea to first determine which meals we want to have as a group and go from there.

We don't normally start tuna fishing seriously until about 5 - 6 PM the first day so I personally would lean more toward a good evening meal before a long hard night of fishing than I would a breakfast on the way out. Maybe burgers, sausages or something on the grill. I could pick up one of those precooked briskets they sell at HEB .... are they any good?

We been doing Jim's pork on the way in and that has worked well so I assume that won't change.

We could eat on our own all the meals in between.

Wha'cha think?

I like Bobby's plan

I'd bet those tamales would be excellent for breakfast!
