"I've got a feast / in my back pocket . . ."

[bunnyjadwiga]

A recent SCA request for help with a feast led me to thinking. I know that if I was in a hurry, and had to scramble together a feast menu off the top of my head, based on what was easy to prepare, easy to get, and popular, I could probably pull one out of my back pocket relatively easily. In fact, most SCA foodies could (in my opinion). I started asking around and found that others liked this pleasant game.

So... I'm inviting you all to go ahead and try it. Assume 60-100 attendees, and a budget in the normal range for your area. Please post your 'back pocket feast' before reading other people's comments, if you would. I'm looking forward to seeing your answers...

Oh, and somewhere around here I have plotted out an Apicius-based feast, for 50, in a "roughing it" kitchen (Nesco roasters, coleman stoves, and fire) that I never got to do. I didn't think that counted because I actually tested and planned it, plus I don't remember it off the top of my head after 3 years. ;)
