3-4 fatties (never done them before, they turn out bad I'm chunking them)[p]And a large pot of Brunswick Stew not done on the egg, but containing pork shoulder meat that was egged. [p]We'll be handing out free Lipitor with all servings![p]Anyone else throwing open the egg and cooking every last piece of dead cow/pig/chicken/deer they can get their hands on?

    ronbeaux,[p]Just how many you cooking for? Wow, 150 lbs of shrimp sure isn't cheap! And I've never heard of a "cord" of beer . . just how much is that?[p]Love you cajun types, other than right before the game and the chants of "Tiger Bait" the LSU folks in Baton Rouge are some of my favorites to tailgate/party/eat with.

    MCG DAWG,
    Right now the list is 50 for Saturday, but some will get there Friday Night and be hungry(and probably stay through Sunday.) I've cooked for two days to get ready and will re-heat things up when needed.
    A "cord" of beer simply put means....A LOT!! As in a cord of fire wood, which we also have set up to be delivered.

    MCG DAWG, personally, I don't think the Fatties compete with all the rest. If you want them to stand out on their own, I'd suggest reserving them for the after midnight nibbles with a few biscuits. That will really WOW your guests.

    Wise One,
    OK, everyone ... I've seen the word "fatties" being bandied about on the site ... what are fatties and how are they made?[p]

    FatDog,
    Nevermind! A bit of web searching has answered my question. Now, off to the butcher.
