Well, we served during the night and used chafing dishes and we really didn't have a problem. Besides using those fly "stay-away" things from like Home Depot, you can assign a person to serve that way they can keep an eye out for flies and not let them land.

[@empathandy__5722]

300 people!!!! I'm stressing over 20 people being in my backyard lol

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

LOL!!! Yeah it can test your anxiety.

[@notreal-jy9wg]

Same

[@user-dc5wu4dg8m]

Empath Andrina rytttttt me toooo

[@mariavlogsreaction]

Empath Andrina my gudness mine is less than that

[@Kenyasterling]

Right 😭

[@MsJeanneMarie]

Okay, there's no way that you're not a professional! This is beautiful and the planning something like this... I can't even imagine. lol

[@delorisbledsoe2959]

Carloyn, girl, that is serious work. You truly have to love the art of cooking/hosting large gatherings.

[@LRoss1069]

Now that's a PARTY!!!!!! I loved how everything was done right and in order... I don't like going to party and guest are arriving and you just now putting the meat on the pit/grill!!! WTH!!! LOL But everything looked nice and can't wait to see the recipes featured from this party!!!

[@toughsuga2]

I love that you are professional and use proper sanitation techniques. I study science, but I am a foodie too. Finally somrone who knows how to handle food!

[@joedizzelfoerizle]

Keep it come'n Mrs. Carolyn! 💪😎🇺🇸

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

Depending on the meat and the time allowed, slightly under cook your meat, properly cool it, refrigerate it. When you reheat it, reheat it with a cover like aluminum foil and allow it to finish cooking until totally done. Otherwise, reheat food with a cover that way you can look in moisture and monitor the temperature to avoid drying it out.

[@tbonds007]

I enjoyed watching this video because of the positive representation of black people. The professionalism, positive unity, and the decor was off the chain. Very classy!!!

[@gayle2020]

Thats how I clean my chicken too Caroline!!!! not many do. I can't wait to try that chicken with root beer marinade. I MUST get some Grand Diamond real soon.

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

GDS has 150mg per 1/4 teaspoon and is in the category of "lower sodium" but not "low sodium", if that makes any sense. Most things considered to be "low sodium" are 140mg or less. It's lower than most of the All Purpose seasonings out there and we used kosher salt to keep from having to use as much.

[@JackyHapy]

Great to see your prep work with the chickens, so important. I add lemon juice to the cleaning process as well.

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

jackie Mc Thanks here’s a more recent video I did when someone requested it kzbin.info/www/bejne/raelnWhvqrx2rc0

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

That was a restaurant supply store where restaurants and people who have businesses shop. If you have a Business Costco near you it will also do the trick.

[@KeebasLife]

What a party! I wish I knew 300 people...Lol As usual you did an excellent job, Carolyn! Feeling like I need more friends in my life!

[@v9237]

I LOVE your detail of care! No shortcuts, you’re very clean and your food looked delicious! 😊❤️

[@LadEGodiva]

Never thought about using kosher salt to clean my chicken, always learn something when I watch your videos.

[@anotherlyric]

Wow!! What a party!! You did a wonderful job Carolyn! I swear you need your own show!

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

Yes, Costco is one of them. Costco has a "Costco Business" store also. Costco, Sam's Club, etc will do the trick. The point is to buy wholesale so you can save money buying in bulk.

[@katbrax8622]

This was a FABULOUS AND CLASSY COOK OUT!!! Uncle Ellis is handsome too.🍸💯👑🏜️

[@christyszkiewicz9565]

What beautiful food! The tablescape is gorgeous ❤️ You are blessed with a beautiful family 🌹

[@brittanyleeful]

This is great! Thanks for these tips, Carolyn! That party looks like a lot of fun. Especially with the funk music at the end. My Favorite.

[@fannyanne2]

Yummy food every body was digging in That's how you throw a party

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

Try it out. Not sure about the salt content but do it on a small batch of chicken as a test.

[@Msfly861]

YOU GO GIRL!!

[@Clynnm0702]

It looks like fun was had by all! The food looked amazing!

[@shebad10]

Looking at all that food is making me hungry!!!

[@Shantell81CRNA]

[@landfair03]

Now this is my type of party. The food looks great!

[@HollyAndChuck]

[@avenwarren6078]

[@mzj88]

I love your recipes and love to cook so I will be checking back often. Thanks so much Carolyn.

[@alwaysagigi]

Thanks for sharing Uncle Ellis' party with us. Great job on the chicken cleaning oh my!

[@ysamek1]

I just love you. Your so bubbly and are great in what you do! Keep up the good work. I'll stay tuned in for some more of your super ideas and preparing.

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

Thanks Dear!

[@acajudi100]

Carolyn: You rock! I am learning so much more from you! Greetings to your uncle, family and friend pretty lady!

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

You can also use large igloo ice chests, place ice in the bottom about 6 to 8 inches deep, put the meat bags in, and put more ice on top if you don't have 2 refrigerators. Once the ice melts just replace it if you're doing this a day or so in advance.

[@deborahhopper1070]

Great Ideas, everything looks fabulous, Thanks!

[@brightpurpleviking]

Holy COW. The meat alone must have cost a FORTUNE! That uncle of yours must be a wonderful man to deserve such a special feast!! Looks fantastic.

[@chefSqueez]

Thank you so much for this. I wasn’t sure what time to start, if I should start cooking the brisket at 7am, if cooking the day before is okay. This is super helpful, I’m definitely gonna do the cocktail hour while I rush to finish the meat 😁 thanks again!

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

No problem Hun! I hope everything works out for you :)

[@CookingWithCarolyn]

Thanks so much :)
