Copper Kettle ... what to do?

OK, lets face it, some men see a mountain and they decide they have to climb the it. Other men feel the coolness of the early winter and they have to go hunting. Still others feel the begining of spring and they know that it is time to watch a baseball game.



Well, not me! I see a huge copper kettle and I need to know what I am going to cook in it? Who would I invite for this dinner? So, at our friend's, Mark and Nichole's house we saw this huge old copper kettle and Mark took a few pictures of me and the kettle and now I can think of nothing else ... what should I make in the KETTLE?

So I will ask you ... do you have any ideas? What do you want me to make? Let me know and if I pick your idea ... maybe you will be invited for dinner.

Have a great day,
Mark

Here on the boardwalk they make that carmel popcorn in huge copper pots. That's what come to mind for me. Looking in the window at Dolles and watching them mix the caramel.

What to do? I think you need to make me. Some Hopkins' Cough Killer or Caciucco Alla Livornese (Livorno Fish Stew)
Mr Pasta

I was thinking along the lines of stew, but it's too hot for stew. Baked beans? that'd be a lot of beans. Apple bobbing? Hmm...guess that's not something you'd "make".
Hmm...thinking, thinking, thinking....
you could make a simmering fire in the bottom, put a bar across the top and make a makeshift rotisserie for a bunch of chickens! With bbq sauce and have people take turns turing it. or the popcorn sounds good too. :)
