This is what we were trying to do several years ago. We were hunting around for a used cheap concession trailer or even an old ice cream truck, just for the truck, to be able to provide some means of support in an emergency. We have the generator, propane tanks, water storage barrels, Big Berky water filtration, turkey fryer setup, Big Chief 35,000 dbl burner cook top w/griddle, big propane grill, misc. commercial grade pots and utensils, a small commercial pizza oven, R.V. microwave, mini deep freezer, mini fridge, blah blah blah and a enclosed small support trailer for most of the gear. We even have a pressure cooker and canning equipment.

Everything we bought was approved by not only state guidelines but federal also.

Everybody thought that it was a great idea, but.... nobody else wanted to step forward and help out. Not even in trying to just find a vehicle or travel trailer that we could check into, nadda.

Heck we even scored a porta-john and a small flatbed trailer to haul it on. All on our own dime.

Now everything is in storage as we are trying to move, we will try again sometime in the future, with a new group, a much better group. But until then....... oh well.

We got the equipment first because it was cheaper by going to yard sales and auctions and it could always be used on the home front, but our long-term goal is to still build a mobile kitchen.

Now with some of you guys and the group sizes that you talk about having there is no reason that you couldn't put together an auxiliary with some older members of your family's and maybe re-hab an old travel trailer or RV for just this purpose.

By the way, we were looking at being able to feed about 200 people twice a day until we could get the bugs worked out, the basics mind you, but still good hot grub.

If any of you need ideas please feel free to ask.
