I work in the oilfield and most of the people I work with either don't know how to cook tasty food or don't have the capabilities to cook so I cook meat and sell it to people at a fair price because I enjoy doing it.
I smoke all sorts of stuff and bring it to work and sell to fund my meatscapades for my time off steaks and stuff does any one else do this kind of thing I've also been curing buckboard hams and I've been trying to put a price per pound on it due to everyone asking me to bring them some
 
It's called Catering

 and yes, lots of folks do it around here. Be careful! Bringing lunch in for the guys is one thing and getting paid for it is a Business with associated responsibilities, Liabilities and obligations. Mess up and someone gets sick? You are in for a load of trouble and lawsuits, not to mention the State an Federal Tax boys paying you a visit...That said... Your Cost for anything that goes into the meal X 3 is pretty standard to determine a basic Sell Price.  That is meat, seasoning, sauce, sides and utensils, plates, etc....JJ

I like the term "Dealing meats"! So breaking bad! Conjures up images of a cook shack in the middle of the desert. Back Alley sales, oh yeah this could be a new tv show!
