'I can't stress enough what a terrible idea this is': Overconfident dude insists he can make huge wedding meal, ignores commenters begging him not to
One avid chef got more than he bargained for when he asked a seemingly simple question to the r/BBQ subreddit. The user, named LogicofUnknown, explained that he wanted to cook a huge and delicious meal for his upcoming wedding event, but needed advice on how to pull it off. Mentioning that his wedding is "next Saturday," the OP hadn't gotten any food catering planned for the event. He explained that sans Thanksgiving this year, this event was going to be a big family meeting time. He listed out the meats and sides he wants to cook himself - smoked turkey, double glazed ham, collard greens…it seems mouth-watering!
Here's the problem - no matter how big OP's kitchen is, he's going to have a hard time organizing and preparing enough food for an entire wedding…basically by himself…on the day before and day of the wedding. Ummm, that's no easy feat. A professional chef chimed in to give the OP their very candid opinion and how he could potentially still pull off the mega-meal. But when it comes to food safety precautions, this OP seemingly doesn't believe it or doesn't want to hear it. Oh, and where will his bride be during all this? Find out below. Read all the drama that went down, where the OP explains the situation and then gets downvoted when commenters don't care for his plan.
