What would you make for Brokeback Mountain food for an Oscar Party

[eeyore]

Any good ideas? All I have so far is beans out of a can and maybe shepherd's pie.

Other people are assigned to bring food from the other best picture nominees. If I had Good Night and Good Luck I could just bring cigarettes and hard liquour!

I'm an adventurous cook with a good kitchen at my disposal, so anything is fair game.

1. Fudge!

:bounce:

[eeyore]

2. Nice!

Fudge with a squeezed on glaze of white icing?

:bounce: :bounce:

3. I'm not gonna go there!

:o

[eeyore]

4. Sissy!

:P

13. And yet THAT was the smilie you used...

5. If anything is fair game,

stew a rabbit, pretend that you caught it yourself. A little beef jerky would be an authentic cowboy touch.

6. Lay's potato chips-- you wish you could quit them!

:hide:

7. Little Weenies in BBQ sauce....

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. Chili!

:hi:

[Beausoir]

9. Lamb. Elk. Trout. Biscuits.

They also ate turkey in the movie.

Ennis wanted soup and spuds, too.

10. baklava

14. baklava?!?!

[peekaloo]

15. *giggle*

sorry....I hate it when I make obscure, inside joke references on public boards.

:hi:

[Benfea]

18. Lordy, I *hate* baklava.

Filo dough is one of the most magical substances ever to grace a plate, and making baklava destroys all of the best characteristics of filo.

11. Sausages in whole wheat buns.

:rofl:

Maybe a little cheese and some miracle whip too...

[no name no slogan]

12. Live game

and have your guests kill what they want to eat and cook it over a campfire

[Benfea]

16. "Bean hole beans"

I saw that the other night on "Ham on the Street" (Food Network). Basically, it's just beans cooked the old fashioned way where you put the beans and seasoning in an old fashioned dutch oven and bury it with hot coals for a few hours.

[Rabrrrrrr]

17. Steaks on the grill, preferably venison or antelope or bison

but even beef will do.

I haven't seen the movie, but I believe they were herding sheep, weren't they? If so, then lamb would be a great choice.

Serve with biscuits or sour bread, beans, rice, bacon, and dried fruit.

Strong coffee, whiskey, and water out of a canteen for drinkin'.
