I was just wondering if any one has pulled this off yet? how did it go? I am thinking of doing one in the summer..
Cheers
:chef:
 
No I haven't done it but it sounds like a great idea!!!
 
Who is your upline? We are discussing this very thing at Cluster in a few weeks. I'll let you know if I get any good tips. I have done one guys party and we had a ball!
 
My husband just announced last week that he wants to do one of these shows and invite all the guys from his job. I was meeting a male host the same day and mentioned it to him. He's never met my husband but was begging for an invitation to attend when my husband does his show!

We did have a company picnic on Friday & my husband took the grill basket out there & did 2 baskets of shrimp in addition to our other food. It was a hit & several people asked about the grill basket. (Silly me, didn't think of taking catalogs!)
 
I'd love to do one this summer with all my husband's friends and my friends' husbands! My hubby loves to grill and we love to entertain, so why not turn it into an opportunity...please send any ideas! I'd love for it to be fun and informative, but not too much of a show/sales time...they just want an excuse to get together and drink and dine!
 
I haven't done one yet, but a few of my host's hubbys are interested. I was thinking: (root) Beer & BBQ. something like a grilled pizza, shrimp for it in the grill basket? not sure still thinking. I said root beer cuz i don't want to be responsible for them driving after. I have mentioned it to a few guys. "you bring the beer and I'll bbq." no takers yet but several have asked me more than once. So that's all I've got to help.

I have an outdoor BBQ show and would like to use your invite but was thinking of changing it since it is a couples BBQ show. I can't make any changes to the PDF-can you save as a word document???
Thanks!

The second one is in Publisher, so you may not have that.There are many PDF converters on the internet...they convert Adobe files to Word files. Several of them offer free versions or free trials. They have been invaluable to me if this helps you
 
No - it's not a problem with not having the proper program. I can open PDF's no problem - but this one doesn't open at all, when I click on it, it just goes to a blank screen.

Don't know about publisher - I don't have that one.

It's from July '08. It may have since been deleted. ;)
 
My husband hosted a "Men Only" Cooking Show last month. We didn't BBQ but we did show how to make the Skinny Chicken Stroganoff and the 8 min Rice Cooker cake. It was a huge success. Sold 2 DCBs, 2 Rice Cookers, and many other things.

Good thinking....that's probably what has happened. Does anyone have a copy that they saved, or something similar that they can post?
Thanks!
