[NRVR-Members] BFSL Food Situation - Anyone able/willing to bring a grill & make burgers & dogs?

[Thomas Tweeks Weeks]

Thanks everyone..
If a couple of you don't mind bringing a cooler with some ice, I'll buy a couple flats of water.. I would like to have just some good cold water at a couple of stations/tables to keep folks hydrated.
 
As for the food.. I don't want anyone to have to miss out.. so I've reached out to a few food trucks.. I think I have a couple of leads. If it pans out, I'll send out the announcement on that shortly. It won't be a "Rocket Grill"..  but at least we'll have a no muss/fuss food option (they will have some sodas and various drink options). 
 
Stay tuned.

I can help out with grilling and serving. Unfortunately, I do not have the means to bring a grill though. I’ll reach out to rocketry at vt to see if anyone else is willing to help. Also, we might want to consider a cooler and ice for meat preservation.

I wondered about a food truck too, but pretty short notice. 
 I don't mind bringing a grill, but we would need someone or two to cook, serve, collect money, etc.  THERE IS NO WAY I am going to have time to do any of that.

Any chance of getting a food truck to come out or such?

So I got some not so fun news.. Unfortunately Paul Schafer (of Rocket Grill fame) can't make it:

 
Paul's been our grill guy for the last few years.. and it's always been awesome! Both he, his grill and awesome rockets, and having all the NC guys flying with us. Good times. :)
 
However, this year he and his wife a little too much fun in the sun and are suffering from some pretty serious sun poisoning.  At most he might be able to make it up to just hang out watch from the shade, but it's really knocked him out and he can barely get around.. so we'll see... but either way.. no Rocket Grill (or his great eats) this year.
 
But the main question I have is..
Is anyone willing/able to head up bringing a grill and cooking up/selling brats, dogs and burgers? I might be able to subsidize the purchasing of a the meat and fixings if someone is able/willing to make and sell food (just to pay me back).. at least from like 11am-2pm on Saturday.  If so.. I'm sure we'll make back at least most of the money for the food (thinking dogs, brats, burgers, chips, drinks, maybe some slaw or something).
 
If this sounds like it's in someone's comfort zone.. please reach out asap.  (I have a grill, but it's charcoal.. not ideal for a multi-hour "Event").
 
Worst case.. we have no food on site when people are expecting it.. and I have to announce to attendees it's a "brown bag event".
 
Let us know soon if it's something anyone here thinks they could pull off for 2-3 hours on Saturday around nosh time (Sunday is optional.. whatever you think).
