is a week out, Kyle. Are you are you getting.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Ready for this?
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Where? Who? Where are we going? I'm sorry, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I blanked out. It's like we just got back from
Colorado and we're doing another trip.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Oh are we going to Huntsville?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
I guess we're going to Huntsville. Everyone's going to hunt School.
We should go to Huntsville.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
That intro was such a whirlwind. I don't know where
I'm at anymore.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Have you listened to Jason's intro? It's like, you know,
he has a good ten minutes of stuff going on
and everything.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Oh, you're you're getting there?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Where it's six oh five? Well get the six oh five.
But I kind of wait until a minute and a
half into the hour before I actually came on, So
you got a good minute and a half before that
was just the music playing and ME rambling.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
To the chat.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Oh okay, gotcha? What's going on in my Why do
I have a border around me?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
That is zoom? We can do speaker and it gets
rid of the border. But that Sometimes the stupid buttons
don't go away for a while, and I don't know
why they go away until the stream ends and then
they magically go away.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Oh okay, gotcha?
Speaker 2 (04:43):
All right?
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Well, yeah, I think we're gonna go to Huntsville. It's
back to back adventures.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Can't wait, right, And the one thing that we do
at Huntsville is unique to Huntsville is, unlike all the
other hand fists, they have a Friday, Saturday, Sunday Hamfest.
Huntsville just has at almost said that wrong, Saturday and
Sunday for the Hamfest. So that means we have a
free Friday.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
We do we do well. I mean it's free for us.
It might not be free for anybody else, but well
it's free. It's free Friday.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Free free Friday, as in, we don't have anything scheduled
to go to the Hamfest.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Because it's not true true. Yeah, I guess it all
depends on whenever people show up, right, if it's free
or not.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
That's just the getting into the park. There might be
a small park fee to come and access the grounds
and meet us over at the pavilion.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
But actually I think, I think that there is a
certain amount of so there is a fee to get
into the park, but if you're camping, there is no fee.
They waive the fee or it's included in your camping.
But I believe if you show up at the ranger
station or the guard shack and you say you're there
(06:07):
for the ham Radio event the lunch, there is a
certain amount of of entry passes that were that were
paid forward. So I think that I don't know how many,
So you might want to get there early, but I
think that if you tell them that you're here for
the ham Radio event, that they will just let you
(06:29):
through and then mark you know, that down and then
you know, I don't know how many they're going to
give again. But yeah, that's what I understand.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
I dropped a link to Monte Seno State Park is
where we're staying, and this pavilion events happening. I don't
remember what pavilion it's in, though.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Wayne says eighty passes.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Oh awesome.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Yeah, I knew that it was. It was some something,
but I didn't know. Yeah, great, eighty passes.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Sweet. Let me set up the zoom window. Uh blah bloom,
zoom note that zoom. Yes, here we go. Here is
Montasento State Park, and uh, where is the lodging?
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Is there?
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Is it the same pavilion we had last year? Okay,
that's the lodge. So we come in. That left is
where you go to the campgrounds. So it's over here.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
John, are you sharing your screen?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
No? I thought I was. I didn't transition.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Here we go, Yeah, it's the John the John something.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
More pavilion.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Yeah, hang on the John Scobel Yeah, John Scoobelt Memorial Pavilion,
which basically, if you roll into the park and I think,
you just keep going right and then it's like the
first left after you get.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Yeah, so here, it looks like the guard check is
let's say here, Yeah, so you just stay straight on
the street. I passed the lodge. Ignore that, keep going
straight and at the Y intersection stay right and then
it's like the second left because this goes off to
the cabins. Yeah, just just follow the signs.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Just just take a left until you find a pavilion.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Alright, I love it. I love it. Let's let's just
I'm going to share this out copy the clipboard. Uh, pubvil.
I'm copying the word pavilion because lord knows how I
would spell it by myself. It's an easy word to spell, pavilion. Yeah,
(08:56):
I have to see it. P A V I L
L I O N.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Yeah, very good.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah, it's still on the screen right there. Wow.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
How long of a walk from campsites to the pavilion.
It's probably ten minute walk. Well, it depends on what
campsite you have. The campsite the camping area is huge.
If you have something by the entry, it's only like
a five minute walk maybe, But if you got something
(09:26):
deep in the campsite, it's probably a good ten or
fifteen And also depends on like are you walking with
a walker or are you walking with both your feet?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
That that is a good question.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Oh, there's a lot of It depends into your I
would say it's a ten to fifteen minute walk if
you're if you're leash, if you're lollygaggon.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
And let's see if I can figure it out to
here directions.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
You're gonna have to click on walking from.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Here from here walking, it's a fourteen minute walk.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
There you go. Google never lies.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah, yeah, and that's just a a arbitrary distance. I
know I have in the past. Jason brings a electric
bike sometimes and I use the electric bike and it's
been amazing and I love it, and that makes that
that so much easier.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
The lot at the lockow, it's always longer, that's true.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Oh my, yeah, that is true.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
You might you might lollygag into the woods. You might
lollygag into somebody's campsite. You might lollygag into somebody's cabin.
Not a lollygagon before you get home forty five.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
You are right. The passes were gifted by Vern, and
the pavilion's been gifted by VERN. I just haven't confirmed
this year that the passes are still good for for
entrance for every buddy need, but I'm hoping. I know
VERN will be out there, right, Yeah, I think Vern
is going to be there. So this this is going
(11:11):
to be all day at this pavilion starting. I don't
know what time probably.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Well, I'm I'm getting there at like probably eight. So
my plan is, so I'm going to do all the
shopping on Thursday, I might I looked on the Mona
Standa website and noticed that my campsite was not booked
for Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Oops.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
So I think, well, I was going to get there
on Thursday, and I think what I'm going to Uh oh,
Vern is not going to be there, but Renee will okay.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Oh, where do you see that? Oh? Robert just posted Yeah, okay,
it's taking a second. I don't know why it's not.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
For got my joke from Bull Durham lolligag to first
you lolligag to second you lagag to third you lolligago?
What does that make you, Lily Daggers? Okay, So I
think I'm gonna head down on Wednesday because I think
what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna get up on
(12:23):
Thursday and I'm gonna take the dog to the sitter.
The dog is gonna go to the sitter in Huntsville
for the whole weekend, so I have to deal with
uh dog things because I'll be in and out and
it's just easier. So I'm gonna take the dog to
the sitter, and then I'm gonna go to Costco and
(12:43):
buy all the meat, get all the meats. The meats
on Thursday, and then yeah, hang out on Thursday night,
and then Friday morning, I think I'm gonna get up,
take shower, and then head directly over to the pavilion,
which probably be about eight o'clock and yeah, we're going
(13:05):
to set up and I want to start cooking by
nine thirty or ten. Oh, that's when I want to
start cooking. Cool.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Well, okay, so let me do the interview type thing.
The past several years, you put on a cookout fundraiser
for the Ablel Teacher Institute for a Good Game, last
several years. How did that start?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
We just you're a great guest, Kyle, thank you for
coming on.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
I have no idea. I we just decided to do
a cookout, and I volunteered because you know, I've done
some cookouts before for all of the YouTubers you know,
down in Orlando and where else, you know, whenever we
go out to our our National Parks adventure, usually somebody
somebody cooks, and I've just you know, just grab all
(13:58):
the stuff and cook. So just I think it migrated
over to Huntsville and we decided, hey, this would be
a good Well you're.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
You're going to planeting and bring in all the stuff,
but you're also great at delegating when it times to
come to cook, and you got skills. But a lot
of times you're like, hey, so and so go can
you can you go cook those mass burgers? Can can you?
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Can you give those tacos real fast?
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Can you ladies do that? This this stems from from work.
If I see you walking around and you're you're like
literally staring at the wall, I'm going to give you
something to do. So if you come to the pavilion
and you got that dough eyed stare in your in
your face, I'm going to give you something to do.
So don't stare at me if you don't want to
(14:44):
be put to work.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Then last year it was it was asked for my beans,
and I did the beans in a crock pot and
they turned out decently. So this year there's been a
big call and I asked Kyle our Colorado trip, can
I help with this and and come on and fullfold
and I'll be there with him for everything. And I
(15:10):
am going to cook the beans again. I'm gonna do
another five pounds of beans. Jeez, I yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
People are gonna be hurting tomorrow. Are on Saturday at
the Hamfest. I'm gonna you know what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna mark people that eat your beans on Friday.
I'm not gonna be near them on Saturday. How about
that that?
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Well, you could try, but we'll be all over Kyle.
I'm gonna I'm gonna avoiding us.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
I'm gonna take a magic marker and I'm gonna mark
people on the back of the neck, just very you know, inconspicuously.
The to be like, hey, you you have now eaten
the beans. And whenever I walk behind you, I'm like,
oh yeah, that guy eat the beans.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
And I go around and uh yeah. It's gonna be
lots of fun. What what is the format of this?
So there's not gonna be any upfront charge. Come grab
a burger for lunch of beans if you want it,
You're you're not held to have any If you don't want,
they will be spicy. There is no punches being held
(16:15):
on On the other hand, there's no punches being added.
These are Frank's typical beans. When we go out and
people ask for beans, these are the beans I make.
So they come they grab food. What what's gonna happen next?
What are you laughing at now? A Doug?
Speaker 3 (16:37):
I hope so well, you don't have to tell you
the truth. Between Frank's beans and the boh at Amfest,
it's overwhelming. Uh, boys and girls, take a shower on
Saturday morning before you come to the Amfest. Right? What
(16:59):
was the question?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
What's the format? Grab food, grab everything? How how do
people contribute to the fundraising effort other than eating the
crap we're ringing?
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Well, we're gonna so I think we're gonna eat around
eleven or eleven thirty. That's the goal. And first, let
me tell you the menu. You want to know the
menu first. So we're gonna have a hamburgers or cheeseburgers.
We're gonna have some cheese there. You don't have to
churn your own butter and cheese. Get the cheese on
(17:33):
the hamburger. We're gonna have your beans. We're also I'm
gonna try I might do some some mac and cheese.
I don't know. It all depends on how stressed I'm
feeling and I'm gonna bring all the stuff to make
maybe make mac and cheese. If somebody wants to delegate,
(17:54):
if I can delegate somebody to help make the mac
and cheese, that would be awesome. So if you have
some you know, you know how to boil water, you're in,
you're in. And then so some mac and cheese for
the side. And then WHILESO we're asking people to bring sides.
(18:17):
You know, if you got something that won't spoil in
the weather. You know, potato salad is probably not the
best idea, but if you got something that you can
bring that, we'll have electric there. So if you want
to bring a crock pot of something that is right
up the alley. Uh. So we're looking for people to
(18:37):
bring sides. We're trying to get rid of chips because
we literally had fifty bags of chips last year. And
that's all great, but nobody needs Nobody got time for
fifty bags of chips. So uh and then we need
some dessert too, like you know, some cookies, you know,
(19:00):
things with uh rabble flavoring, you know, things that are
gonna fill you up at the at the end that
you're you're gonna you know, munchies here and there so
and then we're gonna have hot dogs. So we're gonna
cook for eighty people hamburgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and then
(19:22):
for the hot dogs, I think I'm gonna grab some
chili no bean, chili with no beans, so we're gonna
have that to put on your hot dogs. I'm gonna
do some sour kraut to do on the hot dogs,
and we're gonna have cheese, so all of the fixens
you're gonna be able to. You know, even we're gonna
have pickles there. So if you want to make yourself
(19:43):
a Chicago dog, you can make yourself a Chicago dog.
So that is the that's the goal. Burgers dogs with
all the fixens. Hopefully we'll have some mac and cheese,
will have your beans, will have mother's sides, we'll have
a little bit of dessert, and then hopefully we'll have
(20:05):
enough that we can maybe cook a little bit more.
I know Renee is gonna be working with Steve uh
to cook some dinner, so I think I don't know
if dinner's gonna be there. I think dinner should be
at the pavilion, but I think that there, if you're
hanging around, I think there's going to be dinner there too.
(20:25):
And yeah, we'll announce whenever the food is ready and
everyone can come through. And uh, but we also I
think you know down below here if I can see
the screen, Yeah, down below is two QR codes. So
the three ways that we're trying to get donations is cash,
(20:48):
cash is king. So if you want to throw some
dollars towards the meal, that is great. If you've got
cell phone coverage, Vemo you can scan the vemmo and
you can do this right now. You can send me
even if you're not going to be at Huntsville or
be at the dinner or at the at the lunch,
(21:10):
you can vemo me and PayPal and all of the proceeds.
So after we get done, pay for all of the
you know, the silverware and the napkins and the food
and you know, the the twinkies and all that other stuff,
one hundred percent of the proceeds. And I keep track
(21:33):
of all of the I don't keep track of who
like gives me cash, but I keep track of you know,
the Vemo and the PayPal, and usually I announce it
on Twitter or somebody stream. All of the proceeds that
I need above and beyond to be reimbursed goes to
the ARL Teachers Institute. And last year we raised twenty
(21:56):
four hundred dollars. The goal this year hopefully is going
to be three thousand dollars. So can you lenk me.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Your your your your accounts. I forgot to put them
in the description too for ease ability. Oh the.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
U r ls, Yeah yeah, I'll send it to you
after the stream.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Okay, uh, right now, they're the the the QR codes
are up on screen for you to go and scan them.
This this is amazing. I I'm glad that you accepted
me helping you on this because I can't wait. I'm
gonna chip in. I'm gonna be there. I'm gonna help
cook or do do whatever or help just serve people.
(22:36):
Minus I will be doing the beans.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Oh, we're gonna have and on the the burgers, we're
gonna have sauteed onions. We're gonna do some of that.
We're gonna do bacon. So if you want to do
like an Oklahoma burger with some bacon on it, you
can do that. And then yeah, then all of your
regular hamburger, cheeseburger fixing, pickles, ketchup mustard, and then we've
(23:06):
got relish for the dogs, so we're gonna have a hole.
We have expanded. Last year, we just did you know,
regular hot dogs and cheeseburgers, and that was about it.
Now we're you know, we're gonna we're gonna get into
the the fine dining of camping.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
So yeah, sweet good we I'm looking forward to it. Man,
It's it's gonna be fun. Digital Rancher says three thousand,
we're gonna shatter this. I agree. Glenn Thompson gave me
a fifty dollars super chat. Awesome, man, thank you very much.
(23:42):
I'm gonna put some of that into the fund for
us and a little bit also to help me get
get out there. But yes, that that is awesome. Shopping
with Kyle today.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I actually so, I just got a Costco membership and
I went to Costco for the first time today.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Oh, tell us about this experience.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
It was a little overwhelming.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
It is.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
One the people in there, they don't understand supermarket rules.
It's like literally just a free for all. People are
banging into one another. Well, like you know, you you
pass on the left right and where things. You know,
whenever you're going down an aisle, you know, usually it's
(24:32):
like driving in America, but there's people all over the
place and everyone's like in a line and they all
get bunched up. It was crazy. But yeah, it's it's
a little overwhelming whenever you're trying to shop for one person,
you know, and things come in like like everyone said, oh,
the Costco lasagna is awesome. Well I found the lasagna.
(24:55):
But you got to buy five years of lasagna.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Well that is Costco. It is meant for me, the
large purchases for the big family and just for you
and me, Kyle.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
It don't make sense, I understand. But you know I
have a normal size freezer. Like I literally had to
buy a new freezer at Costco just to buy you know,
get everything home.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
That's that's awesome. Talk talking about cooking and grilling. I
have a couple of pictures. Let's look at this one first.
Let me get the right one. I need to because
I changed my mind on the order. Great producing, Frank,
You're amazing. That's not it. There we go, boom, there
(25:45):
you go.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Lie. I gotta go during the day because yeah, I
went this morning and it was just an absolute man.
I mean, it was like remember in the nineties where
those people on Black Friday were trying to grab those
cabbage patch kids and they were like, you know, fighting
each other. It's literally like the doors opened and I
was I don't know, fiftieth in line and it was
(26:06):
a madhouse, like people were running like it was Black Friday,
and I'm like, what do you do?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
What are you guys doing? So this is me prepping
for the beans last year. Five hobbin arrows I chopped,
and let me tell you, by the end of me
chopping these hobbin arrows with the I guess twenty jalapenos,
my hands were literally burning.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
I bet so.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Yeah, it was insane.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
And then uh.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
Do you have gloves?
Speaker 2 (26:39):
You should bring gloves this time I'm gonna I'm gonna
bring gloves, or if you bring gloves, I will use
your pair of gloves and close.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
No, won't fit your hands.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
What are you crazy?
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Ah? Then this was me grilling on the grill last year.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Mmm.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
So this was the bacon for the beans, and then
on the left side it was diced onions, diced halapenos,
and some hobennaros. When I cook this, I remember the
pavilion clearing, like half of it was gone.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
So all right, So how how long do you need
to cook all of your stuff?
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Overall?
Speaker 2 (27:27):
It needs to be in the pot somewhere between twenty
five minutes to forty minutes. And I like to grill
half well a grill, all the bacon, of course, but
then half the ingredients for the onions and halopenos. Well,
then after that it's just put in the pot and
stir every five minutes or so.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Okay, So what we'll do is and.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
I'm gonna bring I'm gonna bring my large pot this year,
and also a stove burner.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Oh okay, good, So so it gets some.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Heated up correctly and I can alleviate a little bit
of just other stuff that you need to worry about.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Yeah, So I think what we'll do is we'll start
your We'll start your stuff first and get that out
of the way, and then what we'll do is we'll
clean the grill and then do the do my bacon
for the the burgers, and then also do the saute
(28:32):
of the onions. So that's what we'll do. So we'll
start your stuff first, so then you can you can
kind of get out of the way and do your
thing with your beans. And then once you get that
to a point, once.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
They're in the pott is just stirring, then I can
mess with other things and come and stir again.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Yeah, so I'm putting you on on onion saute and
and uh burger burger bacon duty and then says.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
He will bring me some gloves, Thank you, Steve.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Make sure you put those gloves on your hand and
you don't do it like a Howie Mandel and put
it on your head.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
I might do both.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Or is that Robin Williams. Was that Howie Mandel or
Robin Williams who'd put the the surgical glove on his head?
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Robert Williams probably for Patch Adams.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
No, he did it during like a comedy skit.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Oh but you got me on that one.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Yes, yes, that is a very good comment. We need
to highlight that twice.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Sautee the onions and bacon fat. Oh, sure of course.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
So we need to do the bacon first and then.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
Have a separate grease trap for just the bacon, and
then you move it all there and then you get
slowly empty that grease trap onto the onions. Yes, Douglas
agrees Robin Williams.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Yeah, but people are saying, Howie Mandel. But then also
people are saying, Robin Williams, I don't know who it was.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
It might be that altered universe effect, depending on which
the university are, and there's a different answer.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
Yeah, he put it over his head and then he
blew it up and it had the horns, you know, going,
So you know what we should do is uh, did
you thank Glenn for that super chat?
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Okay, thank you again, Glenn. You're awesome, You're amazing. Fifty
dollars super chat. Yes, that rocks. I do appreciate it.
It is helping tremendously right now until I get my
feet under me. Even though I'm starting the new job tomorrow,
there's still you know, like two or three weeks of
delay before you get paid.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
Yep. Yeah. So I have a few things if I
can request from the crowd, the uh, the Heckler's out there,
so things that we need for people to pick up
and bring up the mountain if they remember. One of
the things we need is ice. So we're gonna go
(31:11):
and get Last year we did a booboo, and we
didn't have ice. We had water, but we didn't have ice.
And it was very hot that day, if you don't remember,
it was a little hot, and people were asking, hey,
do you have water? And we had announced that everyone
was on their own for the for drinking, you know,
(31:33):
bringing drinks, but nobody got that memo. So this year,
I'm gonna buy, you know, four or five cases of water.
So we need ice. So if you're gonna come up
the mountain, stop at a gas station and get a
couple of bags of ice, and we'll we'll be able
to use that and we'll ice the everything down. We
(31:55):
also need coolers, So if you have an extra cooler
and you're going to come to the pavilion, throw it
in your car and we'll be able to use that
cooler for more water and other things. So hopefully we'll
have enough coolers. Also, I think for the hot dogs,
(32:21):
I don't think we're gonna grill them. I think we're
just gonna put them in a crockpot and let them
steam kind of on their own. So I have a
big crockpot that I'm gonna bring. But whenever you cook
eighty hot dogs, you kind of need another crockpot. So
if someone else has a crockpot that they're not using
and they're willing to donate that to the cause, that
(32:41):
would be much depreciated. And then also I talked about
side dishes, so if you want to donate, you know,
I want to make sure that we've got enough ice,
enough coolers, enough crockpots. If you can, like hit me
up on discord or send me a an email, I'm
good on qr Z and tell me what you're going
(33:03):
to bring. So therefore, we don't have one hundred people
bringing ice.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
That's a great thing. Yeah, So so there's not more
ice bags than what we need.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Right right, So you know, if we've we've got four
or five people bringing ice and three people bringing coolers
and another person bringing a crock pot, I think we
got it covered. So I think that would be good.
That's kind of the things that we're looking for for
people to bring on top of side dishes. If you
(33:33):
you know, if you remember, I know that it's tough
whenever you're come into a ham Fest and either you're
flying or you're you're driving, you know, a long way,
and getting a side put together is tough. I get it.
I understand, but I know that, you know, some people
live local and to have those resources. So we're asking
(33:54):
people to hang out or to help out if they can.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
H auto ends the art commit it is Howie.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
It is, Howie, there it is there it is. That's
the picture I was looking for.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Nice. Nice oh man. So but even if you're supplying
more water than that, it's just we we we need
more funds at that point too, you're you're gonna be
eating more of the funds.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Yeah. Well, you know, water's cheap. So the nice thing
is we'll drink it. It'll it'll stay up there, you know,
and we'll bring it back to the camp site if
if we don't drink at all, and if some of
it needs to go home with me, it'll go home
with me. A good deal.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
That is a great point because water is cheap and
easily done.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
Water doesn't expire either, at least I don't think.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
So hopefully not. You know, Jason has like water that
we drove around for a couple of our trips and
we're like, did not buy that and like trip so
and so last year he goes, yeah, okay, it's still there.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
Sweet, we should Uh, how many people are watching, We
should ask the chat just for account, who's who's gonna
be there?
Speaker 2 (35:16):
You have thirty one currently?
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Yeah, who's gonna be at Huntsville? Because I'm gonna cook
for eighty gonna cook eighty burgers and eighty dogs, so
hopefully we'll have enough. But I want to make sure
that we're gonna have enough. So maybe if you're gonna
be there and you're going to eat, put something in
(35:38):
the chat to say, hey, I'm gonna be there so
I can maybe count off here. We got five people?
Can we see six? Seven? Six people? Seven people? Where's
my auctioneer voice?
Speaker 2 (35:53):
Comma, gumma go? We got seven? Do we have an eight?
Do we have an eight? Do we have a minus one?
For people eating beans?
Speaker 3 (36:03):
How many of you will be affected by by Frank's
beans on Saturday morning?
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Dave?
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Yeah, Dave, bring ice every day on the way. I good,
Thank you, Dave, Steve me plus seven? What plus seven?
Speaker 2 (36:23):
I don't understand that he's probably staying with PoTA power again.
And bring in some other friends my UK, Mike, what
is up man? How are you doing today?
Speaker 3 (36:41):
I was on the beans. I was on fire with
those beans. Something else was something was on fire, needed
a garden hose.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I was trying to play like a couple of videos
me prepping, but I can't get it to play nicely.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
Oh well, uh, you are you going to How much beans?
Are you going to? Found?
Speaker 2 (37:04):
Five pounds?
Speaker 3 (37:04):
Five pounds? I don't know what?
Speaker 2 (37:06):
What?
Speaker 3 (37:07):
What does the average person eat a pound?
Speaker 2 (37:09):
No? I think when I go out to the deer least,
I might do a pound or two for the guys,
but I usually have half left over that I end
up usually rewarming up for breakfast and the other parts
of the meal. I don't I don't think we ate
(37:30):
them all. Did we eat them all last year? I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (37:33):
I don't rent remember. I can't remember what I did
this morning before I went to Costco.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
So I think dison up five hob hobb and arrows
for five pounds of beans is going to be my
love it and and if they're gone really fast, then great,
and then next year I'll make more. But that means
I need like bigger fats to cook all this stuff
in more pots.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
Yeah, DC fits, Sorry joining late? What's the vemo PayPal
links for? This is for donations for the Teachers Institute.
If you're not gonna be able to donate the day
of for the Huntsville Friday lunch that we're gonna do
at the pavilion. Hey, I'm getting I'm getting PayPal stuff.
(38:18):
Thanks Thomas. Oh, thank you Thomas. Wow, nice contribution from Thomas.
Thank you. I don't know if I can, if I
can just.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Say it's extremely generous.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
Yeah, thank you Thomas. I'm not going to show the amount,
but thank you Thomas. Appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
So I'm just gonna pin that to the top of
the chat. That probably should have been done already.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
That's a good start.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Awesome, Yes, good good. Steve says he's going to be
bringing him Carlos h a v name I can't pronounce,
Julie and I have Vaughn.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
That says Vaughn tank on Vaughn's.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
There's an H. There's an H the D somewhere and
for others these areas stopping buy Oh don't you like
having me around?
Speaker 3 (39:22):
A comic, very comical.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
A couple of beans will feed several people, so that
each pound has three cups in it. I don't know,
there's gonna be a lot of beans. Hopefully I could
cook it all in the pots. I'm bringing.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
How much? So people that know portions better than I.
If I had, if I was gonna cook for let's
say sixty how many how much mac and cheese should
I make? There?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
Like? Uh? There?
Speaker 3 (40:05):
Like uh, you know x x pounds or x ounces
of pasta ice boil cooking like I'm gonna get Yeah,
maybe maybe there's something online. I'm gonna go to Walmart
this week and I'm gonna get those serving trays. I've had.
(40:25):
I've had enough now, I've I've decided we do this
so often that I'm gonna go and get the big
trays that you put the water in the bottom of it,
uh huh, and then you put the two pans in
and then you get the flame underneath of it. And
I'm gonna go and get three of those because I
need I need one big one for the burgers. I
(40:46):
need one for the bacon and the onions, and then
I need another one for the chili for the hot dogs,
and one for the sound crowd.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
To my twenty five to thirty pounds of mac and cheese.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
Oh my god, thirty pounds.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
Come on, thirty pounds.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
I don't even weigh thirty pounds. Make thirty all the
bac of cheese. Now you're saying if a sixty people,
you're saying a half a pound per person?
Speaker 2 (41:20):
What are you? I do agree with you, Kyle getting
getting those big serving Are you getting like the whole
serving trays or just the serving trays that you can
you know, the foil ones that you can fold up?
Speaker 3 (41:32):
Yeah? Yeah, the folding ones.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (41:35):
Chafing dishes, that's what That's what I'm thinking.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
I heard they make powder for that.
Speaker 3 (41:41):
Powder. What do you mean powder chafing. Yes, it's a
different type of chafing. It's chaffing chaffing dishes.
Speaker 2 (41:52):
But that's what I do for Christmas these days. I
get those foil um plates and tins and things, so
when I go there, I could drop the food off
and I don't have to worry about can you watch
that real fast? I don't want to put that back
in my car dirty. It's like, oh, there's that much
left thrown away? I don't care.
Speaker 3 (42:12):
Yeah, yeah, Steve, we're gonna do so. The the big
dishes that you put the water in are like nineteen
and a half inches long and like I don't know,
thirteen inches are wide. And then you get the smaller
pans and you can put those you can split the
big one up into two, right, So I think that's
what we're gonna do is just gonna get like three
(42:34):
or four The stand at Walmart is like eleven fifty
and then you get two big pans for I think
it's like three and a half bucks, and then the
small ones are like two and a half dollars. And
I mean, you know, the whole setup, it's gonna cost
like twenty six dollars. And I'm like, screw it. I'm
(42:56):
not twenty six. If it's eleven times three or four
or that would be forty four, it's going to be like,
you know, sixty bucks to do this. And we do
this all the time, so these things are gonna get
used and they get broken down and then we can
just throw them away and get new stuff, you know,
whenever we do this again. So that's going to be
a I'll cover the cost of that, whatever the cost is,
(43:18):
that's gonna come out of my pocket, and that'll be
my donation to get things started. Everything else, you know,
the food, all of the perishable items, and the napkins
and the forks and everything that the users are going
to touch and dispose of that will come out of
the donations, and then we'll you know, give the rest
(43:39):
to the teachers institive.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
So Robert brings up a point. Please enount that donations
are not required. If you if you can't donate or
unable to donate, still please come out, hang out with us,
have something to eat. It's not required. If you can,
we will be more than happy to accept it and
support the ABRTT Institute.
Speaker 3 (43:59):
P Yes, correct, yep.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
Roughly, let's tom say here roughly twenty four to thirty pounds,
depending on whatever it's a main or side dish. A
good starting point is to aim for about eight ounce
per person if there is a main dish, and four
to six ounces if it's a side.
Speaker 3 (44:26):
Okay, gotcham So we'll look at I'll watch some YouTube
videos and see if I can, you know, make some
mac and cheese relatively easy for a crowd, and if
we can put it in one of those big serving dishes.
The only issue I just might not have a pot
(44:49):
that's big enough. You know, we might have to do
it in stages.
Speaker 2 (44:52):
That's why I'm sticking with five pounds, because if I
do larger than a five pounds I need a bigger pot,
and those bigger pots take longer to cook, the longer
to heat up, and a larger cooking surface. So after
I cooked this five pounds this year, I'm gonna cake
in mental note, and if it's gone really quickly, I'm
just gonna buy another second large pot, and then I
(45:14):
could double it to ten pounds. But I really don't
want to cook. I'm sorry, I really don't want to
cut that much haulapenos.
Speaker 3 (45:21):
But we need an intern. Give it to an intern, yeah,
or one of those magic bullet choppers. One die, one
chop in their slice, three chops in their dice. Eric
Say's Dollar Tree has a lot of cheap mac and cheese.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
What yeah they do? It's the off brand mac and cheese.
Speaker 3 (45:42):
Oh I might, so what does think?
Speaker 2 (45:47):
Go ahead?
Speaker 3 (45:47):
I was thinking about, you know, just getting a bunch
of elbow macaroni and then like making a row and
just you know, doing it from scratch, taking literally, you know,
some half and half for whipping cream, add it to
some uh add as a butter, and just throw in
the cheese.
Speaker 2 (46:08):
And if you're gonna get the good, get the Kraft
Velveta mac and cheese with the squeeze packet, not the
not the powder packet.
Speaker 3 (46:15):
No, no, no, I'm talking about making it from scratch.
I'm not talking about making it from a from the
There's always yeah, there's always Kraft mac and cheese. Yeah,
I hear you, Doug. I don't know. Maybe maybe we'll
get that too. I just like it, that Kraft mac
and cheese, that Family mac and cheese just tastes processed
(46:36):
to me. Just it just doesn't taste good. I mean,
I know it's hard to screw up mac and cheese,
but it just has a weird tang to it. You know,
whenever you throw up in your mouth and it doesn't
things don't taste right. No, m hmm, okay, never mind.
(47:05):
If you have somebody coming from Long Island, I have
fresh jalapenos in Ooh.
Speaker 2 (47:12):
Well, Eric, remember this for next year, and then you
come out next year and bring them. Problem solved. I
used to grow hob and arrows and scorpion pepper's in
my office. It was amazing.
Speaker 3 (47:30):
Let's see who has donated so far. Matt Ham's, Oh
don't know, Matt's Schoolly, thank you, Matt Schooley, we know
Matt Schooley and Sean Carnates, Thank you, Sean, appreciate it.
Let's see who else over here on vemo are a PayPal.
Speaker 2 (47:48):
We need one of those hormometers that goes up.
Speaker 3 (47:53):
Yeah. Yeah, Matt and Sean, thank you, appreciate it. Todd,
Oh Todd, thank you for the donation. Appreciate it. Wow,
Todd Todd came in, he was enough and around. Thank
you Todd, Thank you, Todd. Appreciate it. So yeah, this
(48:15):
is going to I think after it's all said and done,
I think all of the food is going to cost
around five hundred bucks, you know, with the rising cost
of food and this and that. Whenever I was in Costco,
I priced out a pack of eighteen Kirkland Burgers I
(48:38):
think was like twenty seven bucks, and we're going to
try and buy eighty of them, right, So that's like
five packs. And then hot dogs, the Kirkland brand hot dogs.
There was like twenty twenty eight, twenty seven in a pack,
and each one of those packs was I think eighteen dollars.
So I think once, you know, once we buy all
(49:01):
the silverware and the napkins and the paper plates, and
you know, all of the condiments and everything else, I
think it's going to be around between four and five
hundred dollars to feed everyone.
Speaker 2 (49:15):
So dude, I'm actually really looking forward to this now. Yeah.
I enjoy cooking. I help you all out on the
on any of the the excursions we do smacksburgers, mac
and cheese, hot dogs.
Speaker 3 (49:30):
Smack burgers, smack burgers.
Speaker 2 (49:34):
I actually had a smashburger for dinner. Oh how much
you have influenced me, Kyle?
Speaker 3 (49:40):
Did you uh? Did you do it on a blackstone?
Speaker 2 (49:43):
I did it in an iron skillet.
Speaker 3 (49:45):
Oh well that's close.
Speaker 2 (49:46):
Yeah. On the convention open convention stuff, I used my
my spatula though as the smasher.
Speaker 3 (49:55):
I don't do smash burgers in the house because it
stinks it up.
Speaker 2 (49:59):
Come on the f.
Speaker 3 (50:01):
It's a poor ventilation in a one hundred and twenty
year old house.
Speaker 2 (50:06):
Kevin says, if this is successful, or have you considered
asking Costs too if they will support you?
Speaker 3 (50:13):
Yeah? I just that requires me to get on the phone. Actually,
cost Costco probably will not donate if we're not a
four to oh one CE or some type of non
for profit, and I don't want to get the r
L involved. It's too you know. Then I have to
(50:34):
call up there and then they have to fit the bill,
and then they have to go and buy all the
crap from Costco and.
Speaker 2 (50:41):
It's it's a lot of extra steps.
Speaker 3 (50:43):
Just a lot of extra steps. Yeah. Oh, another thing
that you want to bring because last year we kind
of ran out of seats. Hopefully it's not going to rain,
and bring a camping chair.
Speaker 2 (50:57):
It's like every two years.
Speaker 3 (50:59):
Yeah, So bring a camping chairs so you can set out,
you know, in the lawn and you know, I have
your have your lunch and because there's you know, we're
gonna take up probably two picnic benches with all the stuff.
I mean, I'm going to bring a table for extra
extra stuff. But you know, we kind of ran out
of between the radios and the food and everything else,
(51:22):
we kind of ran out of places for people to
sit because we had so many people. So so if
you have a camping chair and you're able to bring it,
you know, bring it.
Speaker 1 (51:39):
Eric.
Speaker 3 (51:39):

Thank you, tc Fits, appreciate it. The PayPal q QR
QR code process didn't ask for the code. Oh nice,
thanks Tom. Yeah, I don't. I think it's a Vemo thing,
to tell you the truth. Oh yeah, Well, I'm gonna
(54:01):
print out the QR codes and we're gonna put them up,
you know, at the at the site and as people
are going through the table, if you know they want
to donate, they'll have the ability to do that. You know,
cell phone coverage isn't the best at the at the site,
so that's why we say cash is king.

it on over to Kyle, and.

live stuff, but you know, trying to get back into
the YouTube thing. But then I've got a overlanding channel
that has taken off that I do a lot of
stuff on. It's called Square Drop Adventures. Just dropped a
channel today about turning my my overlanding rig around and
(56:33):
you know what it takes to get that thing turned
around for the next camping adventure, which will be Huntsville.
And yeah, so I get in a lot of engagement
on that, and I kind of put more time and
effort into that than I do HAM radio. But I
still do live stuff. I just did a live on
the portable Satellite tracker that is going to be at

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Ready for this?
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Where? Who? Where are we going? I'm sorry, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I blanked out. It's like we just got back from
Colorado and we're doing another trip.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Oh are we going to Huntsville?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
I guess we're going to Huntsville. Everyone's going to hunt School.
We should go to Huntsville.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
That intro was such a whirlwind. I don't know where
I'm at anymore.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Have you listened to Jason's intro? It's like, you know,
he has a good ten minutes of stuff going on
and everything.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Oh, you're you're getting there?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Where it's six oh five? Well get the six oh five.
But I kind of wait until a minute and a
half into the hour before I actually came on, So
you got a good minute and a half before that
was just the music playing and ME rambling.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
To the chat.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Oh okay, gotcha? What's going on in my Why do
I have a border around me?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
That is zoom? We can do speaker and it gets
rid of the border. But that Sometimes the stupid buttons
don't go away for a while, and I don't know
why they go away until the stream ends and then
they magically go away.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Oh okay, gotcha?
Speaker 2 (04:43):
All right?
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Well, yeah, I think we're gonna go to Huntsville. It's
back to back adventures.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Can't wait, right, And the one thing that we do
at Huntsville is unique to Huntsville is, unlike all the
other hand fists, they have a Friday, Saturday, Sunday Hamfest.
Huntsville just has at almost said that wrong, Saturday and
Sunday for the Hamfest. So that means we have a
free Friday.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
We do we do well. I mean it's free for us.
It might not be free for anybody else, but well
it's free. It's free Friday.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Free free Friday, as in, we don't have anything scheduled
to go to the Hamfest.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Because it's not true true. Yeah, I guess it all
depends on whenever people show up, right, if it's free
or not.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
That's just the getting into the park. There might be
a small park fee to come and access the grounds
and meet us over at the pavilion.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
But actually I think, I think that there is a
certain amount of so there is a fee to get
into the park, but if you're camping, there is no fee.
They waive the fee or it's included in your camping.
But I believe if you show up at the ranger
station or the guard shack and you say you're there
(06:07):
for the ham Radio event the lunch, there is a
certain amount of of entry passes that were that were
paid forward. So I think that I don't know how many,
So you might want to get there early, but I
think that if you tell them that you're here for
the ham Radio event, that they will just let you
(06:29):
through and then mark you know, that down and then
you know, I don't know how many they're going to
give again. But yeah, that's what I understand.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
I dropped a link to Monte Seno State Park is
where we're staying, and this pavilion events happening. I don't
remember what pavilion it's in, though.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Wayne says eighty passes.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Oh awesome.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Yeah, I knew that it was. It was some something,
but I didn't know. Yeah, great, eighty passes.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Sweet. Let me set up the zoom window. Uh blah bloom,
zoom note that zoom. Yes, here we go. Here is
Montasento State Park, and uh, where is the lodging?
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Is there?
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Is it the same pavilion we had last year? Okay,
that's the lodge. So we come in. That left is
where you go to the campgrounds. So it's over here.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
John, are you sharing your screen?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
No? I thought I was. I didn't transition.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Here we go, Yeah, it's the John the John something.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
More pavilion.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Yeah, hang on the John Scobel Yeah, John Scoobelt Memorial Pavilion,
which basically, if you roll into the park and I think,
you just keep going right and then it's like the
first left after you get.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Yeah, so here, it looks like the guard check is
let's say here, Yeah, so you just stay straight on
the street. I passed the lodge. Ignore that, keep going
straight and at the Y intersection stay right and then
it's like the second left because this goes off to
the cabins. Yeah, just just follow the signs.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Just just take a left until you find a pavilion.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Alright, I love it. I love it. Let's let's just
I'm going to share this out copy the clipboard. Uh, pubvil.
I'm copying the word pavilion because lord knows how I
would spell it by myself. It's an easy word to spell, pavilion. Yeah,
(08:56):
I have to see it. P A V I L
L I O N.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Yeah, very good.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah, it's still on the screen right there. Wow.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
How long of a walk from campsites to the pavilion.
It's probably ten minute walk. Well, it depends on what
campsite you have. The campsite the camping area is huge.
If you have something by the entry, it's only like
a five minute walk maybe, But if you got something
(09:26):
deep in the campsite, it's probably a good ten or
fifteen And also depends on like are you walking with
a walker or are you walking with both your feet?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
That that is a good question.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Oh, there's a lot of It depends into your I
would say it's a ten to fifteen minute walk if
you're if you're leash, if you're lollygaggon.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
And let's see if I can figure it out to
here directions.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
You're gonna have to click on walking from.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Here from here walking, it's a fourteen minute walk.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
There you go. Google never lies.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah, yeah, and that's just a a arbitrary distance. I
know I have in the past. Jason brings a electric
bike sometimes and I use the electric bike and it's
been amazing and I love it, and that makes that
that so much easier.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
The lot at the lockow, it's always longer, that's true.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Oh my, yeah, that is true.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
You might you might lollygag into the woods. You might
lollygag into somebody's campsite. You might lollygag into somebody's cabin.
Not a lollygagon before you get home forty five.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
You are right. The passes were gifted by Vern, and
the pavilion's been gifted by VERN. I just haven't confirmed
this year that the passes are still good for for
entrance for every buddy need, but I'm hoping. I know
VERN will be out there, right, Yeah, I think Vern
is going to be there. So this this is going
(11:11):
to be all day at this pavilion starting. I don't
know what time probably.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Well, I'm I'm getting there at like probably eight. So
my plan is, so I'm going to do all the
shopping on Thursday, I might I looked on the Mona
Standa website and noticed that my campsite was not booked
for Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Oops.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
So I think, well, I was going to get there
on Thursday, and I think what I'm going to Uh oh,
Vern is not going to be there, but Renee will okay.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Oh, where do you see that? Oh? Robert just posted Yeah, okay,
it's taking a second. I don't know why it's not.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
For got my joke from Bull Durham lolligag to first
you lolligag to second you lagag to third you lolligago?
What does that make you, Lily Daggers? Okay, So I
think I'm gonna head down on Wednesday because I think
what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna get up on
(12:23):
Thursday and I'm gonna take the dog to the sitter.
The dog is gonna go to the sitter in Huntsville
for the whole weekend, so I have to deal with
uh dog things because I'll be in and out and
it's just easier. So I'm gonna take the dog to
the sitter, and then I'm gonna go to Costco and
(12:43):
buy all the meat, get all the meats. The meats
on Thursday, and then yeah, hang out on Thursday night,
and then Friday morning, I think I'm gonna get up,
take shower, and then head directly over to the pavilion,
which probably be about eight o'clock and yeah, we're going
(13:05):
to set up and I want to start cooking by
nine thirty or ten. Oh, that's when I want to
start cooking. Cool.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Well, okay, so let me do the interview type thing.
The past several years, you put on a cookout fundraiser
for the Ablel Teacher Institute for a Good Game, last
several years. How did that start?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
We just you're a great guest, Kyle, thank you for
coming on.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
I have no idea. I we just decided to do
a cookout, and I volunteered because you know, I've done
some cookouts before for all of the YouTubers you know,
down in Orlando and where else, you know, whenever we
go out to our our National Parks adventure, usually somebody
somebody cooks, and I've just you know, just grab all
(13:58):
the stuff and cook. So just I think it migrated
over to Huntsville and we decided, hey, this would be
a good Well you're.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
You're going to planeting and bring in all the stuff,
but you're also great at delegating when it times to
come to cook, and you got skills. But a lot
of times you're like, hey, so and so go can
you can you go cook those mass burgers? Can can you?
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Can you give those tacos real fast?
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Can you ladies do that? This this stems from from work.
If I see you walking around and you're you're like
literally staring at the wall, I'm going to give you
something to do. So if you come to the pavilion
and you got that dough eyed stare in your in
your face, I'm going to give you something to do.
So don't stare at me if you don't want to
(14:44):
be put to work.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Then last year it was it was asked for my beans,
and I did the beans in a crock pot and
they turned out decently. So this year there's been a
big call and I asked Kyle our Colorado trip, can
I help with this and and come on and fullfold
and I'll be there with him for everything. And I
(15:10):
am going to cook the beans again. I'm gonna do
another five pounds of beans. Jeez, I yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
People are gonna be hurting tomorrow. Are on Saturday at
the Hamfest. I'm gonna you know what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna mark people that eat your beans on Friday.
I'm not gonna be near them on Saturday. How about
that that?
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Well, you could try, but we'll be all over Kyle.
I'm gonna I'm gonna avoiding us.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
I'm gonna take a magic marker and I'm gonna mark
people on the back of the neck, just very you know, inconspicuously.
The to be like, hey, you you have now eaten
the beans. And whenever I walk behind you, I'm like,
oh yeah, that guy eat the beans.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
And I go around and uh yeah. It's gonna be
lots of fun. What what is the format of this?
So there's not gonna be any upfront charge. Come grab
a burger for lunch of beans if you want it,
You're you're not held to have any If you don't want,
they will be spicy. There is no punches being held
(16:15):
on On the other hand, there's no punches being added.
These are Frank's typical beans. When we go out and
people ask for beans, these are the beans I make.
So they come they grab food. What what's gonna happen next?
What are you laughing at now? A Doug?
Speaker 3 (16:37):
I hope so well, you don't have to tell you
the truth. Between Frank's beans and the boh at Amfest,
it's overwhelming. Uh, boys and girls, take a shower on
Saturday morning before you come to the Amfest. Right? What
(16:59):
was the question?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
What's the format? Grab food, grab everything? How how do
people contribute to the fundraising effort other than eating the
crap we're ringing?
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Well, we're gonna so I think we're gonna eat around
eleven or eleven thirty. That's the goal. And first, let
me tell you the menu. You want to know the
menu first. So we're gonna have a hamburgers or cheeseburgers.
We're gonna have some cheese there. You don't have to
churn your own butter and cheese. Get the cheese on
(17:33):
the hamburger. We're gonna have your beans. We're also I'm
gonna try I might do some some mac and cheese.
I don't know. It all depends on how stressed I'm
feeling and I'm gonna bring all the stuff to make
maybe make mac and cheese. If somebody wants to delegate,
(17:54):
if I can delegate somebody to help make the mac
and cheese, that would be awesome. So if you have
some you know, you know how to boil water, you're in,
you're in. And then so some mac and cheese for
the side. And then WHILESO we're asking people to bring sides.
(18:17):
You know, if you got something that won't spoil in
the weather. You know, potato salad is probably not the
best idea, but if you got something that you can
bring that, we'll have electric there. So if you want
to bring a crock pot of something that is right
up the alley. Uh. So we're looking for people to
(18:37):
bring sides. We're trying to get rid of chips because
we literally had fifty bags of chips last year. And
that's all great, but nobody needs Nobody got time for
fifty bags of chips. So uh and then we need
some dessert too, like you know, some cookies, you know,
(19:00):
things with uh rabble flavoring, you know, things that are
gonna fill you up at the at the end that
you're you're gonna you know, munchies here and there so
and then we're gonna have hot dogs. So we're gonna
cook for eighty people hamburgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and then
(19:22):
for the hot dogs, I think I'm gonna grab some
chili no bean, chili with no beans, so we're gonna
have that to put on your hot dogs. I'm gonna
do some sour kraut to do on the hot dogs,
and we're gonna have cheese, so all of the fixens
you're gonna be able to. You know, even we're gonna
have pickles there. So if you want to make yourself
(19:43):
a Chicago dog, you can make yourself a Chicago dog.
So that is the that's the goal. Burgers dogs with
all the fixens. Hopefully we'll have some mac and cheese,
will have your beans, will have mother's sides, we'll have
a little bit of dessert, and then hopefully we'll have
(20:05):
enough that we can maybe cook a little bit more.
I know Renee is gonna be working with Steve uh
to cook some dinner, so I think I don't know
if dinner's gonna be there. I think dinner should be
at the pavilion, but I think that there, if you're
hanging around, I think there's going to be dinner there too.
(20:25):
And yeah, we'll announce whenever the food is ready and
everyone can come through. And uh, but we also I
think you know down below here if I can see
the screen, Yeah, down below is two QR codes. So
the three ways that we're trying to get donations is cash,
(20:48):
cash is king. So if you want to throw some
dollars towards the meal, that is great. If you've got
cell phone coverage, Vemo you can scan the vemmo and
you can do this right now. You can send me
even if you're not going to be at Huntsville or
be at the dinner or at the at the lunch,
(21:10):
you can vemo me and PayPal and all of the proceeds.
So after we get done, pay for all of the
you know, the silverware and the napkins and the food
and you know, the the twinkies and all that other stuff,
one hundred percent of the proceeds. And I keep track
(21:33):
of all of the I don't keep track of who
like gives me cash, but I keep track of you know,
the Vemo and the PayPal, and usually I announce it
on Twitter or somebody stream. All of the proceeds that
I need above and beyond to be reimbursed goes to
the ARL Teachers Institute. And last year we raised twenty
(21:56):
four hundred dollars. The goal this year hopefully is going
to be three thousand dollars. So can you lenk me.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Your your your your accounts. I forgot to put them
in the description too for ease ability. Oh the.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
U r ls, Yeah yeah, I'll send it to you
after the stream.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Okay, uh, right now, they're the the the QR codes
are up on screen for you to go and scan them.
This this is amazing. I I'm glad that you accepted
me helping you on this because I can't wait. I'm
gonna chip in. I'm gonna be there. I'm gonna help
cook or do do whatever or help just serve people.
(22:36):
Minus I will be doing the beans.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Oh, we're gonna have and on the the burgers, we're
gonna have sauteed onions. We're gonna do some of that.
We're gonna do bacon. So if you want to do
like an Oklahoma burger with some bacon on it, you
can do that. And then yeah, then all of your
regular hamburger, cheeseburger fixing, pickles, ketchup mustard, and then we've
(23:06):
got relish for the dogs, so we're gonna have a hole.
We have expanded. Last year, we just did you know,
regular hot dogs and cheeseburgers, and that was about it.
Now we're you know, we're gonna we're gonna get into
the the fine dining of camping.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
So yeah, sweet good we I'm looking forward to it. Man,
It's it's gonna be fun. Digital Rancher says three thousand,
we're gonna shatter this. I agree. Glenn Thompson gave me
a fifty dollars super chat. Awesome, man, thank you very much.
(23:42):
I'm gonna put some of that into the fund for
us and a little bit also to help me get
get out there. But yes, that that is awesome. Shopping
with Kyle today.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I actually so, I just got a Costco membership and
I went to Costco for the first time today.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Oh, tell us about this experience.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
It was a little overwhelming.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
It is.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
One the people in there, they don't understand supermarket rules.
It's like literally just a free for all. People are
banging into one another. Well, like you know, you you
pass on the left right and where things. You know,
whenever you're going down an aisle, you know, usually it's
(24:32):
like driving in America, but there's people all over the
place and everyone's like in a line and they all
get bunched up. It was crazy. But yeah, it's it's
a little overwhelming whenever you're trying to shop for one person,
you know, and things come in like like everyone said, oh,
the Costco lasagna is awesome. Well I found the lasagna.
(24:55):
But you got to buy five years of lasagna.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Well that is Costco. It is meant for me, the
large purchases for the big family and just for you
and me, Kyle.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
It don't make sense, I understand. But you know I
have a normal size freezer. Like I literally had to
buy a new freezer at Costco just to buy you know,
get everything home.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
That's that's awesome. Talk talking about cooking and grilling. I
have a couple of pictures. Let's look at this one first.
Let me get the right one. I need to because
I changed my mind on the order. Great producing, Frank,
You're amazing. That's not it. There we go, boom, there
(25:45):
you go.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Lie. I gotta go during the day because yeah, I
went this morning and it was just an absolute man.
I mean, it was like remember in the nineties where
those people on Black Friday were trying to grab those
cabbage patch kids and they were like, you know, fighting
each other. It's literally like the doors opened and I
was I don't know, fiftieth in line and it was
(26:06):
a madhouse, like people were running like it was Black Friday,
and I'm like, what do you do?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
What are you guys doing? So this is me prepping
for the beans last year. Five hobbin arrows I chopped,
and let me tell you, by the end of me
chopping these hobbin arrows with the I guess twenty jalapenos,
my hands were literally burning.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
I bet so.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Yeah, it was insane.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
And then uh.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
Do you have gloves?
Speaker 2 (26:39):
You should bring gloves this time I'm gonna I'm gonna
bring gloves, or if you bring gloves, I will use
your pair of gloves and close.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
No, won't fit your hands.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
What are you crazy?
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Ah? Then this was me grilling on the grill last year.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Mmm.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
So this was the bacon for the beans, and then
on the left side it was diced onions, diced halapenos,
and some hobennaros. When I cook this, I remember the
pavilion clearing, like half of it was gone.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
So all right, So how how long do you need
to cook all of your stuff?
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Overall?
Speaker 2 (27:27):
It needs to be in the pot somewhere between twenty
five minutes to forty minutes. And I like to grill
half well a grill, all the bacon, of course, but
then half the ingredients for the onions and halopenos. Well,
then after that it's just put in the pot and
stir every five minutes or so.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Okay, So what we'll do is and.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
I'm gonna bring I'm gonna bring my large pot this year,
and also a stove burner.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Oh okay, good, So so it gets some.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Heated up correctly and I can alleviate a little bit
of just other stuff that you need to worry about.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Yeah, So I think what we'll do is we'll start
your We'll start your stuff first and get that out
of the way, and then what we'll do is we'll
clean the grill and then do the do my bacon
for the the burgers, and then also do the saute
(28:32):
of the onions. So that's what we'll do. So we'll
start your stuff first, so then you can you can
kind of get out of the way and do your
thing with your beans. And then once you get that
to a point, once.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
They're in the pott is just stirring, then I can
mess with other things and come and stir again.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Yeah, so I'm putting you on on onion saute and
and uh burger burger bacon duty and then says.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
He will bring me some gloves, Thank you, Steve.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Make sure you put those gloves on your hand and
you don't do it like a Howie Mandel and put
it on your head.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
I might do both.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Or is that Robin Williams. Was that Howie Mandel or
Robin Williams who'd put the the surgical glove on his head?
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Robert Williams probably for Patch Adams.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
No, he did it during like a comedy skit.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Oh but you got me on that one.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Yes, yes, that is a very good comment. We need
to highlight that twice.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Sautee the onions and bacon fat. Oh, sure of course.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
So we need to do the bacon first and then.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
Have a separate grease trap for just the bacon, and
then you move it all there and then you get
slowly empty that grease trap onto the onions. Yes, Douglas
agrees Robin Williams.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Yeah, but people are saying, Howie Mandel. But then also
people are saying, Robin Williams, I don't know who it was.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
It might be that altered universe effect, depending on which
the university are, and there's a different answer.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
Yeah, he put it over his head and then he
blew it up and it had the horns, you know, going,
So you know what we should do is uh, did
you thank Glenn for that super chat?
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Okay, thank you again, Glenn. You're awesome, You're amazing. Fifty
dollars super chat. Yes, that rocks. I do appreciate it.
It is helping tremendously right now until I get my
feet under me. Even though I'm starting the new job tomorrow,
there's still you know, like two or three weeks of
delay before you get paid.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
Yep. Yeah. So I have a few things if I
can request from the crowd, the uh, the Heckler's out there,
so things that we need for people to pick up
and bring up the mountain if they remember. One of
the things we need is ice. So we're gonna go
(31:11):
and get Last year we did a booboo, and we
didn't have ice. We had water, but we didn't have ice.
And it was very hot that day, if you don't remember,
it was a little hot, and people were asking, hey,
do you have water? And we had announced that everyone
was on their own for the for drinking, you know,
(31:33):
bringing drinks, but nobody got that memo. So this year,
I'm gonna buy, you know, four or five cases of water.
So we need ice. So if you're gonna come up
the mountain, stop at a gas station and get a
couple of bags of ice, and we'll we'll be able
to use that and we'll ice the everything down. We
(31:55):
also need coolers, So if you have an extra cooler
and you're going to come to the pavilion, throw it
in your car and we'll be able to use that
cooler for more water and other things. So hopefully we'll
have enough coolers. Also, I think for the hot dogs,
(32:21):
I don't think we're gonna grill them. I think we're
just gonna put them in a crockpot and let them
steam kind of on their own. So I have a
big crockpot that I'm gonna bring. But whenever you cook
eighty hot dogs, you kind of need another crockpot. So
if someone else has a crockpot that they're not using
and they're willing to donate that to the cause, that
(32:41):
would be much depreciated. And then also I talked about
side dishes, so if you want to donate, you know,
I want to make sure that we've got enough ice,
enough coolers, enough crockpots. If you can, like hit me
up on discord or send me a an email, I'm
good on qr Z and tell me what you're going
(33:03):
to bring. So therefore, we don't have one hundred people
bringing ice.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
That's a great thing. Yeah, So so there's not more
ice bags than what we need.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Right right, So you know, if we've we've got four
or five people bringing ice and three people bringing coolers
and another person bringing a crock pot, I think we
got it covered. So I think that would be good.
That's kind of the things that we're looking for for
people to bring on top of side dishes. If you
(33:33):
you know, if you remember, I know that it's tough
whenever you're come into a ham Fest and either you're
flying or you're you're driving, you know, a long way,
and getting a side put together is tough. I get it.
I understand, but I know that, you know, some people
live local and to have those resources. So we're asking
(33:54):
people to hang out or to help out if they can.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
H auto ends the art commit it is Howie.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
It is, Howie, there it is there it is. That's
the picture I was looking for.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Nice. Nice oh man. So but even if you're supplying
more water than that, it's just we we we need
more funds at that point too, you're you're gonna be
eating more of the funds.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Yeah. Well, you know, water's cheap. So the nice thing
is we'll drink it. It'll it'll stay up there, you know,
and we'll bring it back to the camp site if
if we don't drink at all, and if some of
it needs to go home with me, it'll go home
with me. A good deal.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
That is a great point because water is cheap and
easily done.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
Water doesn't expire either, at least I don't think.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
So hopefully not. You know, Jason has like water that
we drove around for a couple of our trips and
we're like, did not buy that and like trip so
and so last year he goes, yeah, okay, it's still there.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
Sweet, we should Uh, how many people are watching, We
should ask the chat just for account, who's who's gonna
be there?
Speaker 2 (35:16):
You have thirty one currently?
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Yeah, who's gonna be at Huntsville? Because I'm gonna cook
for eighty gonna cook eighty burgers and eighty dogs, so
hopefully we'll have enough. But I want to make sure
that we're gonna have enough. So maybe if you're gonna
be there and you're going to eat, put something in
(35:38):
the chat to say, hey, I'm gonna be there so
I can maybe count off here. We got five people?
Can we see six? Seven? Six people? Seven people? Where's
my auctioneer voice?
Speaker 2 (35:53):
Comma, gumma go? We got seven? Do we have an eight?
Do we have an eight? Do we have a minus one?
For people eating beans?
Speaker 3 (36:03):
How many of you will be affected by by Frank's
beans on Saturday morning?
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Dave?
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Yeah, Dave, bring ice every day on the way. I good,
Thank you, Dave, Steve me plus seven? What plus seven?
Speaker 2 (36:23):
I don't understand that he's probably staying with PoTA power again.
And bring in some other friends my UK, Mike, what
is up man? How are you doing today?
Speaker 3 (36:41):
I was on the beans. I was on fire with
those beans. Something else was something was on fire, needed
a garden hose.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I was trying to play like a couple of videos
me prepping, but I can't get it to play nicely.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
Oh well, uh, you are you going to How much beans?
Are you going to? Found?
Speaker 2 (37:04):
Five pounds?
Speaker 3 (37:04):
Five pounds? I don't know what?
Speaker 2 (37:06):
What?
Speaker 3 (37:07):
What does the average person eat a pound?
Speaker 2 (37:09):
No? I think when I go out to the deer least,
I might do a pound or two for the guys,
but I usually have half left over that I end
up usually rewarming up for breakfast and the other parts
of the meal. I don't I don't think we ate
(37:30):
them all. Did we eat them all last year? I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (37:33):
I don't rent remember. I can't remember what I did
this morning before I went to Costco.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
So I think dison up five hob hobb and arrows
for five pounds of beans is going to be my
love it and and if they're gone really fast, then great,
and then next year I'll make more. But that means
I need like bigger fats to cook all this stuff
in more pots.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
Yeah, DC fits, Sorry joining late? What's the vemo PayPal
links for? This is for donations for the Teachers Institute.
If you're not gonna be able to donate the day
of for the Huntsville Friday lunch that we're gonna do
at the pavilion. Hey, I'm getting I'm getting PayPal stuff.
(38:18):
Thanks Thomas. Oh, thank you Thomas. Wow, nice contribution from Thomas.
Thank you. I don't know if I can, if I
can just.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Say it's extremely generous.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
Yeah, thank you Thomas. I'm not going to show the amount,
but thank you Thomas. Appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
So I'm just gonna pin that to the top of
the chat. That probably should have been done already.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
That's a good start.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Awesome, Yes, good good. Steve says he's going to be
bringing him Carlos h a v name I can't pronounce,
Julie and I have Vaughn.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
That says Vaughn tank on Vaughn's.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
There's an H. There's an H the D somewhere and
for others these areas stopping buy Oh don't you like
having me around?
Speaker 3 (39:22):
A comic, very comical.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
A couple of beans will feed several people, so that
each pound has three cups in it. I don't know,
there's gonna be a lot of beans. Hopefully I could
cook it all in the pots. I'm bringing.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
How much? So people that know portions better than I.
If I had, if I was gonna cook for let's
say sixty how many how much mac and cheese should
I make? There?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
Like? Uh? There?
Speaker 3 (40:05):
Like uh, you know x x pounds or x ounces
of pasta ice boil cooking like I'm gonna get Yeah,
maybe maybe there's something online. I'm gonna go to Walmart
this week and I'm gonna get those serving trays. I've had.
(40:25):
I've had enough now, I've I've decided we do this
so often that I'm gonna go and get the big
trays that you put the water in the bottom of it,
uh huh, and then you put the two pans in
and then you get the flame underneath of it. And
I'm gonna go and get three of those because I
need I need one big one for the burgers. I
(40:46):
need one for the bacon and the onions, and then
I need another one for the chili for the hot dogs,
and one for the sound crowd.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
To my twenty five to thirty pounds of mac and cheese.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
Oh my god, thirty pounds.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
Come on, thirty pounds.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
I don't even weigh thirty pounds. Make thirty all the
bac of cheese. Now you're saying if a sixty people,
you're saying a half a pound per person?
Speaker 2 (41:20):
What are you? I do agree with you, Kyle getting
getting those big serving Are you getting like the whole
serving trays or just the serving trays that you can
you know, the foil ones that you can fold up?
Speaker 3 (41:32):
Yeah? Yeah, the folding ones.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (41:35):
Chafing dishes, that's what That's what I'm thinking.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
I heard they make powder for that.
Speaker 3 (41:41):
Powder. What do you mean powder chafing. Yes, it's a
different type of chafing. It's chaffing chaffing dishes.
Speaker 2 (41:52):
But that's what I do for Christmas these days. I
get those foil um plates and tins and things, so
when I go there, I could drop the food off
and I don't have to worry about can you watch
that real fast? I don't want to put that back
in my car dirty. It's like, oh, there's that much
left thrown away? I don't care.
Speaker 3 (42:12):
Yeah, yeah, Steve, we're gonna do so. The the big
dishes that you put the water in are like nineteen
and a half inches long and like I don't know,
thirteen inches are wide. And then you get the smaller
pans and you can put those you can split the
big one up into two, right, So I think that's
what we're gonna do is just gonna get like three
(42:34):
or four The stand at Walmart is like eleven fifty
and then you get two big pans for I think
it's like three and a half bucks, and then the
small ones are like two and a half dollars. And
I mean, you know, the whole setup, it's gonna cost
like twenty six dollars. And I'm like, screw it. I'm
(42:56):
not twenty six. If it's eleven times three or four
or that would be forty four, it's going to be like,
you know, sixty bucks to do this. And we do
this all the time, so these things are gonna get
used and they get broken down and then we can
just throw them away and get new stuff, you know,
whenever we do this again. So that's going to be
a I'll cover the cost of that, whatever the cost is,
(43:18):
that's gonna come out of my pocket, and that'll be
my donation to get things started. Everything else, you know,
the food, all of the perishable items, and the napkins
and the forks and everything that the users are going
to touch and dispose of that will come out of
the donations, and then we'll you know, give the rest
(43:39):
to the teachers institive.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
So Robert brings up a point. Please enount that donations
are not required. If you if you can't donate or
unable to donate, still please come out, hang out with us,
have something to eat. It's not required. If you can,
we will be more than happy to accept it and
support the ABRTT Institute.
Speaker 3 (43:59):
P Yes, correct, yep.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
Roughly, let's tom say here roughly twenty four to thirty pounds,
depending on whatever it's a main or side dish. A
good starting point is to aim for about eight ounce
per person if there is a main dish, and four
to six ounces if it's a side.
Speaker 3 (44:26):
Okay, gotcham So we'll look at I'll watch some YouTube
videos and see if I can, you know, make some
mac and cheese relatively easy for a crowd, and if
we can put it in one of those big serving dishes.
The only issue I just might not have a pot
(44:49):
that's big enough. You know, we might have to do
it in stages.
Speaker 2 (44:52):
That's why I'm sticking with five pounds, because if I
do larger than a five pounds I need a bigger pot,
and those bigger pots take longer to cook, the longer
to heat up, and a larger cooking surface. So after
I cooked this five pounds this year, I'm gonna cake
in mental note, and if it's gone really quickly, I'm
just gonna buy another second large pot, and then I
(45:14):
could double it to ten pounds. But I really don't
want to cook. I'm sorry, I really don't want to
cut that much haulapenos.
Speaker 3 (45:21):
But we need an intern. Give it to an intern, yeah,
or one of those magic bullet choppers. One die, one
chop in their slice, three chops in their dice. Eric
Say's Dollar Tree has a lot of cheap mac and cheese.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
What yeah they do? It's the off brand mac and cheese.
Speaker 3 (45:42):
Oh I might, so what does think?
Speaker 2 (45:47):
Go ahead?
Speaker 3 (45:47):
I was thinking about, you know, just getting a bunch
of elbow macaroni and then like making a row and
just you know, doing it from scratch, taking literally, you know,
some half and half for whipping cream, add it to
some uh add as a butter, and just throw in
the cheese.
Speaker 2 (46:08):
And if you're gonna get the good, get the Kraft
Velveta mac and cheese with the squeeze packet, not the
not the powder packet.
Speaker 3 (46:15):
No, no, no, I'm talking about making it from scratch.
I'm not talking about making it from a from the
There's always yeah, there's always Kraft mac and cheese. Yeah,
I hear you, Doug. I don't know. Maybe maybe we'll
get that too. I just like it, that Kraft mac
and cheese, that Family mac and cheese just tastes processed
(46:36):
to me. Just it just doesn't taste good. I mean,
I know it's hard to screw up mac and cheese,
but it just has a weird tang to it. You know,
whenever you throw up in your mouth and it doesn't
things don't taste right. No, m hmm, okay, never mind.
(47:05):
If you have somebody coming from Long Island, I have
fresh jalapenos in Ooh.
Speaker 2 (47:12):
Well, Eric, remember this for next year, and then you
come out next year and bring them. Problem solved. I
used to grow hob and arrows and scorpion pepper's in
my office. It was amazing.
Speaker 3 (47:30):
Let's see who has donated so far. Matt Ham's, Oh
don't know, Matt's Schoolly, thank you, Matt Schooley, we know
Matt Schooley and Sean Carnates, Thank you, Sean, appreciate it.
Let's see who else over here on vemo are a PayPal.
Speaker 2 (47:48):
We need one of those hormometers that goes up.
Speaker 3 (47:53):
Yeah. Yeah, Matt and Sean, thank you, appreciate it. Todd,
Oh Todd, thank you for the donation. Appreciate it. Wow,
Todd Todd came in, he was enough and around. Thank
you Todd, Thank you, Todd. Appreciate it. So yeah, this
(48:15):
is going to I think after it's all said and done,
I think all of the food is going to cost
around five hundred bucks, you know, with the rising cost
of food and this and that. Whenever I was in Costco,
I priced out a pack of eighteen Kirkland Burgers I
(48:38):
think was like twenty seven bucks, and we're going to
try and buy eighty of them, right, So that's like
five packs. And then hot dogs, the Kirkland brand hot dogs.
There was like twenty twenty eight, twenty seven in a pack,
and each one of those packs was I think eighteen dollars.
So I think once, you know, once we buy all
(49:01):
the silverware and the napkins and the paper plates, and
you know, all of the condiments and everything else, I
think it's going to be around between four and five
hundred dollars to feed everyone.
Speaker 2 (49:15):
So dude, I'm actually really looking forward to this now. Yeah.
I enjoy cooking. I help you all out on the
on any of the the excursions we do smacksburgers, mac
and cheese, hot dogs.
Speaker 3 (49:30):
Smack burgers, smack burgers.
Speaker 2 (49:34):
I actually had a smashburger for dinner. Oh how much
you have influenced me, Kyle?
Speaker 3 (49:40):
Did you uh? Did you do it on a blackstone?
Speaker 2 (49:43):
I did it in an iron skillet.
Speaker 3 (49:45):
Oh well that's close.
Speaker 2 (49:46):
Yeah. On the convention open convention stuff, I used my
my spatula though as the smasher.
Speaker 3 (49:55):
I don't do smash burgers in the house because it
stinks it up.
Speaker 2 (49:59):
Come on the f.
Speaker 3 (50:01):
It's a poor ventilation in a one hundred and twenty
year old house.
Speaker 2 (50:06):
Kevin says, if this is successful, or have you considered
asking Costs too if they will support you?
Speaker 3 (50:13):
Yeah? I just that requires me to get on the phone. Actually,
cost Costco probably will not donate if we're not a
four to oh one CE or some type of non
for profit, and I don't want to get the r
L involved. It's too you know. Then I have to
(50:34):
call up there and then they have to fit the bill,
and then they have to go and buy all the
crap from Costco and.
Speaker 2 (50:41):
It's it's a lot of extra steps.
Speaker 3 (50:43):
Just a lot of extra steps. Yeah. Oh, another thing
that you want to bring because last year we kind
of ran out of seats. Hopefully it's not going to rain,
and bring a camping chair.
Speaker 2 (50:57):
It's like every two years.
Speaker 3 (50:59):
Yeah, So bring a camping chairs so you can set out,
you know, in the lawn and you know, I have
your have your lunch and because there's you know, we're
gonna take up probably two picnic benches with all the stuff.
I mean, I'm going to bring a table for extra
extra stuff. But you know, we kind of ran out
of between the radios and the food and everything else,
(51:22):
we kind of ran out of places for people to
sit because we had so many people. So so if
you have a camping chair and you're able to bring it,
you know, bring it.
Speaker 1 (51:39):
Eric.
Speaker 3 (51:39):
What's the PayPal address. It's in the it's down below, right,
can it's down here?
Speaker 2 (51:43):
Yeah, you can scan it. It will be posted a
description after the stream. Because I forgot to get it.
I got like everything else I needed, I got your
picture for the thumbnail. I got the qr codes. I
just forgot about these.
Speaker 3 (52:00):
The link actually, uh, Eric, if you go to my
qr z page, it's my email address that is associated
