Cook-a-thon Menu - August 2013

Here's our menu.  We were pretty ambitious but finished at about 3:30 (minus the mess).  We made pizza afterward because we had so many pizza toppings left so we got dinner out of it too!  Cost was a little over $500.  That was enough for 4 families and a little leftover for a 2 person family.  Biggest cost is always the meat.  If you can get chicken under $2/lb. you're doing good.  We went to Wal-mart and bought family packs for $1.99/lb.  If Zaycon happens to be coming, you may be able to get chicken cheaper than $1.99lb.  though it will come in a 40 lb. box. We bought beef at Costco as that was the best deal at the time (still a bit expensive if you ask me though).
