Not to mention a few cases of beer. I guess I'll get started in a couple hours. I still need to pick up a piece of plywood to use as a table.

    Nothing like family hanging out in the backyard, eating good and drinking beer.
    My question is...why spend $500 instead of $200?
    I hear the voices inside my head. They counsel me. They understand. They talk to me.

    I also doubt that they could have gotten "12 pounds of super jumbo shrimp, 3 dozen blue crabs, 15 pounds of potatoes, eight ears of corn... ...and plenty of other edibles... ...Not to mention a few cases of beer", or the equivalent, in any restaurant for anything close to $200. I assume the $200 figure cited by fm would have bought much less of a feast in a restaurant. Plus there's the fact that the $500 included the stockpot, burner, and "other hardware", which they now own and will presumably get plenty more use out of over the coming years.
