Oh man! I really wish I could come to this. It was a really fun time last year. You'll be missing Brian's grilled nectarines (or was it peaches?) with balsamic reduction too, so someone get on that :D
Miss you all, have fun! Martin On Aug 18, 2010, at 12:06, Scott Olmsted <[email protected]> wrote: Anybody coming to the SD Ruby BBQ on Saturday? Sound off so I know how much ice to get for cooling beer and make a guess as to what you might bring. Do you want some direction about what to bring? Run irb, paste the following code, hit Enter and there you are: foods = %w(chicken bratwurst hamburgers hot_dogs) foods << %w(buns salad vegetable_tray desert) foods << %w(beer wine beer sparkling_cider beer) foods[rand(foods.size)] Last year we had a lot of extra beer that we sent home with people, so large quantities are not necessary. Some variety in darks, hefeweizens, etc, would be nice, especially since Martin Emde, who brought some great beers last year, moved to San Francisco. If, on average, each person brought enough food to feed himself/herself, and enough to drink, plus a bit more, we'll be fine. See you here! Scott At 09:16 AM 8/10/2010, you wrote: Hey, folks. We're long overdue for another SD Ruby RBBQ, so let's make it happen!!! -- Patrick WHAT It's a potluck cookout! Please bring some food and/or drink to share. To keep things coordinated, just email the group with a list of whatever you're planning to bring and who's coming. That way, we hope to wind up with the right number of hamburgers, hot dogs, buns, salads, vegetable trays, deserts, beers, bottles of wine, sparkling cider, etc. The venue is the home of Scott Olmsted and his wife, Barbara. They will provide the barbecue, coolers with ice, disposable plates and utensils, napkins, mustard, ketchup, and relish. Not far from the coast, it can be cool in the evening in Encinitas, even in August (and it's been quite cool this year), so having a sweater or jacket is perhaps not a bad idea.
