How to Have a Successful Pot-Luck Dinner
One of the most common types of dinner parties now is the pot-luck dinner. Most of the time these are very easy to plan and usually go off without a hitch, but there is always room for error with guest serviced parties. One person might show up with a meat dish to a vegan pot luck or someone won’t show up with anything, or even worse, the person who is supposed to bring a main dish shows up with a bag of fast food cheese burgers.
Now a lot of people will just go with the flow and try to fix it their selves, but as we all know this will just make a stressed host and a party that seemed useless.
Most of these problems won’t mean much or bother too many people if it was for a children’s play date or something casual, but to a more sophisticated party, they can be disasters.
One of the easiest ways to head off any problems is to assign each guest a dish, you can do this in any extent you’d like really, just understand that some guests may balk at the idea of you telling them what to bring to a pot-luck so your best approach is to either ask and hope that they respect your wishes or call it something other than a pot-luck. One way to assign the guests a dish is to assign them a specific course, such as two people bring appetizers and three bring the main course and then two bring dessert. Another way to do it is to give each person a list of dishes on the invites and let them pick which one they would like to bring.
