    As has been going on for the past 2 years, I'm organizing a semi-monthly BBQ all summer long to celebrate cooking, sharing food, but also to take advantage of the fact that Chicago has beautiful beaches!

    This is an LTH event, but is completely open to anyone and everyone! Please bring friends!
    To simplify and unify the process of the RSVP, and also to allow everyone to coordinate the food we're bringing, I've set up a public facebook invite page. I would love to have people RSVP there, but ask that you also PLEASE post your pictures and reactions to the event here on LTH and not just keep it on facebook. My intention is not in any way to move the event off of LTH, rather it is to keep the event more integrated and encourage people to post on here as well.

    Here is the facebook invite https://www.facebook.com/messages/1219255711

    Food
    The theme this week is KOREAN!!! Please post what you plan to bring here or on the facebook page, or both! If you don't fancy yourself a cook and just want to come eat feel free to bring some drinks!

    Drinks
    The park is officially a non-alcohol location, meaning it is technically possible to be ticketed, however we have unofficially drank alcohol at every single one of these without incident. Last week a cop drove by and said "party on" then drove off. BYOB at your own discretion :)

    Time
    I typically show up around 11am, unless i need to start up a smoker earlier. The party usually reaches full swing between 1-4pm, and people peter out around 6pm.

    Location:
    After years of experience, we have found an idyllic location right by the water a bit off the beaten path. There is the added bonus that there is ample parking year round, even during big events we have not had trouble parking at this spot.

    Here is the map http://goo.gl/maps/TZPyH

    new rule for this week: Everyone has to bring 1 or 2 banchan in addition to their contribution. This way we can have a nice spread of side dishes! :D :D :D

    I'm in for several (or more) banchan, types TBD and thinking about trying to do a grilled seafood pancake...

    I'll be making kimchi, perilla leaf banchan, fish cake/shishito pepper banchan, and grilled salted yellow croaker.

    My plan is to first get some char on the seafood mix, then do the pancake in a cast iron skillet on the grill. Speaking of that, does anyone have a large, well-seasoned cast iron skillet I could borrow???

    My cast iron is beautifully seasoned, and I always bring it along just in case anyone needs it.

    I have the kimchi in the oven with the light on to keep it warm. Who would have known it would be so cold on a day I'm trying to ferment cabbage?

    I made a "refrigerator special" kimchi too, using the random stuff in my fridge. It just so happens it was all purple and red (purple cabbage, radishes, and kale). Should be a pretty colorful kimchi!

    ATM, we're still running the help message (in the banner quote box), which links back to the thread where questions are being asked and answered about the new features, etc. But soon, we'll bring back the banner quotes, which will now be linked back directly to the posts from which they are extracted.
