Here is the deal boys - I will bring the rabbits and dumplings but will post up the remainder of the ingredients for a wicked stew. All those that want to eat should amend the list with their name beside an ingredient or utencil and bring it along, simple as that. Keep your receipts and we will all throw in to cover the cost of the meal - here goes

Ingredients

8 wild rabbits SILVERBACK
16 Herb Dumplings SILVERBACK
1000g salt pork, pancetta or bacon BEN
4 large onions PABLO
12 large carrots PABLO
16 celery sticks PABLO
8 bay leaves PABLO
4 sprigs of thyme PABLO
2 litres cider medium or dry but not sweet AARON
Jar of honey LUPUS
Salt and freshly ground black pepper PABLO
2 bags potatoes suitable for mash LUPUS
Butter LUPUS
Full fat milk PABLO

Utencils

Potato peeler SILVERBACK
Stew pot SILVERBACK
Frying pan PITKIN
Hand held whisk SILVERBACK
Potato masher SILVERBACK
Large pot for potatoes PITKIN
Put up portable table SILVERBACK
Ladle SILVERBACK
Tongs SILVERBACK

This will obviously only work if you remember to bring what you have committed to. If successful this will be an excellent way of putting together some seriously fine fayre with contributions from everyone - let's see how it goes :)

Regards

Dave (Silverback)

Nice one Mark got your message (I was putting the kids to bed ;) ) - The murika might be a tad small as we need to fry the pancetta/bacon then use the fat for softening the onion and browning the rabbit - there will be a lot of fat from the pancetta etc.

I shall be fashioning an apron from birch bark - this is bushcraft after all :rolleyes:

Excellent response so far (thanks Lupus Pablo and Aaron). Mark I am going to keep the request for a frying pan as I think the Murika will be too shallow to hold all the fat in.

We still require:

1000g salt pork, pancetta or bacon
Frying pan
Large Pot for the Potatoes

I don't know the numbers due for this weekend, looks like a lot of food, but I'm a 2, me plus a mate i'm bringing along - his first bushcraft experience. Will that affect dinner?

Actually, please can someone confirm definite numbers, I have a funky idea for dessert...

A kilo?! Sounds excellent. I'll get that, more likely bacon than pancetta/salt pork

Don't have a frying pan or large pot suitable for this I'm afraid so can't help there

Dave, if we're having mash do you want me to get some cream/garlic/salt/pepper etc?

Dave, if we're having mash do you want me to get some cream/garlic/salt/pepper etc? If its not too much bother Ben, yes. I will stand Aaron down on the milk ;)

Still looking for a frying pan and pot for the spuds people :)

Will make a nice change to be eating while you can still see to cook :D

I'd like to prep please Dave.

If I'm too late to be included for the food, let me know & I'll supply my own.

As the food side is all sorted, I'll bring some rum & I think I have some whisky as well. :)


Edit: I have a staying out pass!!! :D
