The Crack

It's early. I'm up at 5 am today to get in for a Big catering job today. General Electric has an aviation plant about 30 minutes north of here and they've ordered food for each of three shifts at their plant. Nice managers, and I have no idea what the occasion is.

This means a delivery this morning at 4am, 11am and 6pm for some 12oo people.

The last two days we cooked 160 briskets, 210 slabs of ribs and prepped 300 pounds each of green beans, barbeque baked beans, smoked turkey and more to fill their order.

Though the numbers are impressive, I'm still trying to figure out the profitability of the place. It must be good with jobs like this, but I haven't been granted access to the books. Yet...

Saturday sees us going north again to Kansas, to serve bbq for 600 dedicated NRA members celebrating something (perhaps Obama's approval rating). That'll be interesting.

Good times.
