Let Bill know you're coming and how many mouths we're feeding, I need a head count for the meats. A reply email is enough. The club will be providing funding for the main meat courses. Heiko and I will visit Costco on Saturday to buy a bunch of stuff for grilling. Tri-tip, brats, links, chicken, peppers, portabellos, zuks, etc. The club will provide paper plates and other table service items as well as ice and a selection of soft drinks (and maybe some margaritas).
LOCATION:
Robert W. Crown Beach located at the
west end of Otis Drive in Alameda, CA, intersection of Westline Dr (which
becomes 8th St.). Enter from Otis/Westline and park in the first lot if
possible. We should be easy to locate between the first lot and the
beach.
WHAT TO BRING:
This is a Pot Luck, so bring stuff to
share. Since this is a Bee Bee Que, try to be creative and pick something that
uses honey in the recipe. No assignments are made in advance - it's a real pot
luck.
ACTIVITIES:
Sunday may be cloudy and cool-ish at the
beach, so dress for fog. You'll be warmer if you do some running around, so
bring some activities to share too. There's no reason to leave the beach at
2pm, that's just when we'll clean-up our food mess.

Comments
You could try scraping the frames and suspending them over a basin to drip. One of our members had good success with this method; another tried it, and got very little to drip out.
If you come to one of the meetings, held the second Tuesday of every month, you can get catalogs and advice about where people shop.
