One of the best parts of NE TDI Club events is how everyone comes together and helps out with the food and other aspects of our GTG's. Dyno day is no different and everyone who comes with the hope of a full belly should plan on bringing something along as well.

Last year the food took up four tables and two grills. And looked a little like this:



Here are a few ideas of things that we’ll need for the day:

Ice/Coolers
Burgers/Hot Dogs/Sausages/Grill Food
Buns/Condiments for said grill food
Salads/pasta salads/side dishes
Chips/Dips/Salsa
Drinks/Water/Soda/Booz
Coffee/bagels/Doughnuts
Paper Plates/Plastic Cups/Utensils
Desserts/Sweet Things
Things to fry


Post what you plan on bringing and I’ll add you to the list. We will have tables, a grill, and a turkey fryer on hand.

Sign up to bring something and come out and have a good time with the TDI community!

Redundant?

I mean, "batter" is a covering...
Of is this like "double stuffed" with a coating on top of a coating?
Wait!.. Battered 7 layer bars! Eight, count 'em, eight layers!

I will have seasonings and marinades that will nicely flavor ANY meat you would like me to grill up.... It doesn't have to be limited to burgers and dogs.

I will also have knives for carving/slicing/boning, a cutting board, & tongs.

At Jason's (TDIJetta99) GTG over the summer, people brought pork loin chops, steaks, chicken, corn on the cob, brats, in addition to the burgers and franks. I can prepare anything you give me multiple ways for a feast full of variety & flavor!!

Whatever people feel like spending money on they can bring. Shrimp, salmon, london broil, chicken parts..... Bring em all on.

Don't forget, we have a deep fryer... so bring on the Jalepeno Poppers, beer battered shrimp, onion rings, fries, bloomin onions, etc, I could go on and on... you get the idea.

I think we'll be OK, weather-wise. They have plenty of room to accomodate us inside.

Saturday: A slight chance of rain after 11am. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 65. South wind between 3 and 11 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%.

Saturday Night: Rain, mainly after 9pm. Low around 58. Breezy. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.

Yes! I love those. How are the seats working out? Did you ever get the heating stuff set up? You'll get to see my new leathers that replaced the ones you have now.

15 lbs of potatoes purchased, ginormous batch of homemade* batter for onion rings made.

*Recipe for homemade batter stolen shamelessly from the intarwebz. If it sucks, it ain't my fault!
