Our Grandson got married Sunday Sept. 2nd When they were doing all the planning I asked who and what was going to do the food? They both looked at me and said "You" Barbecue.
How could I say no. In fact I was flattered that they both wanted me to cook for a crowd.
I had to rent an extra refrigerator for all the meat and buy two huge igloo coolers.
ended up buying all my meat at the local store just up the road (made me a good deal on everything.
6 Briskets 14-18 lbs each
5 - 8-9 # Pork Butts
25 racks of Baby Backs
16 Large Chicken split in Half
12 Lbs. Sausage
4 Gallons of my Baked Beans

Number 2 son brought his Smoker over .
Had 2 smokers going for 4 days

Congratulations on the wedding! That’s one huge cook, I’d pull my hair out trying to cook for 80 or 90 people. Looks like you did great though.
 
Awesome all around . That sausage really caught my eye . Looks perfect .
 
WOW, just WOW. That's a great looking cook Gary. Superb Job on those wedding vittles, and I don't think I've ever seen a fridge stocked with that much food.

Point for sure.

Wow, that had to take some serious planning and it looks like you pulled it off well!

I would be curious to hear more about your process, As far as order you cooked things, how you held them, reheated etc. and what worked, didn't work, what you would change if you did it again.
 
Gary, congrats on the grandson’s wedding. That’s one hell of a cook, you make it look so easy.
 
Gary Congrats on a fantastic cook,all looks perfect to me.Hope the newly weds have a long and happy bunch of years together.

Thanks Guys I had more fun than I have had in Years. The only time I got a little stressed was re-warming
Wedding was at 5:30 PM I finished warming the last batch at 4:10 PM #1 son and nephew hurried it out there, then I jumped in the shower, got ready and made it by 5:30 Actually got started with the ceremony at 6:00
