[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been wildly overthinking this. I was thinking some sort of lovely salad, a pretend fancy main dish (risotto? paella?) and then something for a dessert.

Folks are cool with this level of casual? Honestly, this is incredibly useful. I had been using dinner parties as experiments for fancy cooking, and it takes all day, and then I don't do them very often. I am dumb. ;)[/quote]

People are cool with casual but I don't think any kind of "pasta and salad" are going to go over well these days. None of my friends eat pasta. I'm loving the brisket ideas. Simple combinations of meats and vegetables are what people want to eat. I have a challenge where I can't grill but I do have a nice wolf range, so I can prepare steak with sides. I have also been loving what you can do with vegetables in an air fryer so I'll be watching this thread with interest.

I love to bake but would just grab something from a bakery and put more attention on the mains and vegetables since people are more accepting of that.

As an alternative, I would spend all day baking and just buy pulled pork and chicken from the best BBQ place in town. Thoughts? [/quote]
