Men in the Kitchen: Breaking Gender Stereotypes

[Ouabache]

And then...this morning I went to a fund-raising pancake breakfast at a nearby fire hall.

For those of you not familiar, a western PA volunteer fire department on a Steelers game day is roughly knee-deep in testosterone.

So, I walked into the kitchen to drop off a griddle they needed and there was the fire chief mixing pancake batter in a 5 gallon plastic bucket, using a 1/2 hp electric drill with a paint mixer attachment. And, it worked really well and was easy to clean up!

I've been to a few fire hall breakfasts, on opening-day of fishing season. They grill up some tasty breakfasts

You mention 5 gallon buckets & drills.. There was a Dinner Impossible episode on Food Channel, where Robert Irvine needed more pots to cook an upscale lunch for a 1000 construction workers. He enlisted wheelbarrows for blending the peaches. (the barrows were new and thoroughly washed). When he needed more cooking surface, the construction crew came to the rescue, welding him a flat top grill made of sheet iron. He puts on a fun show!
