Great Group Dinner Idea

In my new in-laws family, how they celebrate is by cooking by themselves for nearly 3-6 hours for a giant feast. My idea of an easy dinner is a Hot Pot Party. If it's for family, you can ask them to name a few favorites and then go out to buy it and prepping everything takes only an hour max depending on how big your family is! If not, just ask people to bring a dish UNCOOKED that can be boiled in water

some ideas on what to get

  • Thinly Sliced Beef
  • Noodles
  • Shrimp
  • Tofu
  • Mushrooms
  • Fish balls, beef balls, etc
  • Ramen noodles
  • Thinly cut chicken slices
  • Fish


What you would need to prep

  • Pot
  • Chicken/Beef stock
  • Giant Pot to cook with
  • Utensils
  • Plates
  • Serving Dishes - all the food that you will eat needs to be prepped on so people can eat
  • "Fishing" Spoons - it's similar to a drainer, but it is needed so people can get their own food
