What the Van der Linde Members Bring to the Potluck
I’d like to think that Susan would be the one to host the gathering. Let’s see what everybody brought…
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not the expensive kind, but something he found as a package deal at Costco
He does not have a Costco membership
He told everybody that he went to an exclusive butcher to obtain this “delicacy”
Got Arthur to cook the steaks at the potluck
It sat under his BBQ hood for 10 hours and completely falls apart when you pick it up
A tender food from a tender man
No leftovers made it home with him
Had to cook Dutch’s steaks (or steak, singular) for him
It was his Grandma's recipe to throw whatever dried goods into a cake batter and call it a day
It actually turned out pretty good, considering prunes made it into the mix
I wouldn’t be too curious about the other dried fruits Hosea added, they’re probably older than you…
Thinks that Abigail's contributions count as enough for both Marston’s
Later realizes that Abigail's contributions do not cover both Marston's
Had to run out to the nearest grocer and pick up some hot dogs and buns
Got Arthur to cook the hot dogs at the potluck
Bison, venison, beef—you name it, he’s got it
He’s the master of preservation and resourcefulness
He simply went into his smokehouse and gathered up an assortment of his collection to bless everyone at the cookout
Its got some serious kick to it
Arthur's hiccups from the spice were fervently denied from existence (Tilly got it on camera)
Everyone leaves the potluck with orange-stained lips
Just canned, baked beans in a pork and molasses sauce
He dumped several cans into a big bowl and microwaved it
He was the only one who ate it
Fried fish, caught himself, of course
After years of dry swallowing Pearson’s stew (with an unidentifiable protein source), Javier took it into his own hands to educate the rest of the gang on Mexican cuisine
Safe to say, nobody really had a proper spice tolerance built up over the years, and the pozole wasn’t exactly a baby step
Sadie, however, helped herself to several servings
Homemade sourdough and apple butter
It’s guuuttt healllthyy and a good tool to scoop up any leftovers on your plate (ergo, chilli or pozole)
Also combats the spice of some other dishes…
It's the kind of staple that completes a decorated table. Without it, you’ll be left wondering what's missing
All kinds: ketchup, BBQ, sour cream and onion, even those weird flavours
It’s an excuse for him to spend dumb money at the gas station solely on chips, but it piques his curiosity when “cucumber and honey” doesn’t hit like he wanted it to
He’s there to pig out and head out, shirt unbuttoned, belt unbuckled
Passed out with a plate on his stomach and a beer in hand
Macaroni salad and slider sandwiches
She's catering to her son to ensure he’s well fed; nobody else really gets an opinion
Her macaroni salad is thick with little bits of ham that's almost nostalgic
The sandwiches range from ham and cheese to tuna and celery
You’re satisfied, Jack’s satisfied, everyone's happy
He’s the only one who eats them
Ate too many—currently battling a stomach ache
Turkey collard greens and a pre-packaged veggie tray
Lord knows (AKA Susan knows) nobody eats enough fibre, so she's practically surrounding each potluck attendee to ensure they have at least five different vegetables on their plate
Everything he brought to the potluck came home with him that night
An assorted platter of sausages, cheeses, and various crackers
Yes, he manipulated and coerced some passerby on their way to another potluck to give it to him
Mixed fruits with a chocolate dip
She wanted something sweet and light, worried everyone might bring really heavy, hearty dishes
Her cookies are the kind that have a perfect crunch exterior while remaining soft and chewy in the middle
It’s rich, it’s creamy, and it’s gone by the end of the event
Jack and Micah got into a brawl about who could eat the last one (enter Abigail)
You best believe little Jack sat happily eating his second serving :)
The baked kind with a good crust overtop
It’s gooey and perfectly golden around the edges
Sean was caught licking the dish, holed up in some corner at the end of the potluck
Sean owes Karen a new dish
Potato salad, buffalo chicken dip, samosas, nachos and salsa, hamburger sliders, brioche and butter, Greek salad, stuffed mushrooms, zucchini salad, fried calamari, caprese skewers, pigs-in-a-blanket, slow-cooked meatballs, mini quiche, deviled eggs, and lastly, brownies
Arthur offended by mini quiche; Kieran asked to leave potluck
They’re buttery, flaky, and the perfect finger food for large groups
She made them specifically to have strawberry or raspberry filling in the middle, something sweet enough and not too tart
She isn’t a fan of the more sour kinds that make her nose crinkle; she wants to enjoy eating, not fight her senses
This man’s got an entire liquor arsenal up his sleeve
You want a martini? He’s got olives in his pocket
Someone say Bloody Mary? He’s got James Sunderland on the line
Everyone gets food poisoning
