I will show up early Sat afternoon to get the chili going. I plan to have:
2 dutch ovens full of chili. Depending on taste, I can have one HOT and the other can be OMG!.
2 dutch ovens of cornbread and butter to spare.
2 dutch ovens of Cherry Crisp cobbler.
Additional bowls, spoons and small plates are appreciated.
I expect a couple friends to come and be awed by your setup and stay for dinner Sat but expect we will be good for food.
I will stay for breakfast Sunday morning.
