Yeah usually some kind of beef/pork/lamb and fish. Last night we had pork country style ribs and halibut. Halibut fillet cost $97 & was barely enough for 4 people. Add on wines, sides, dessert etc. Sometimes friends bring wine or dessert or like elk meat or whatever.

Every guest (or couple) should be bringing a bottle of wine / other type of alcohol. This will meet or often exceed the amount of booze you use that night. Food costs are going up but we hosted for 8 of our friends (10 plates total) and it wasn’t near the much.
