My in-laws were at the Pawlet Game Supper two weeks ago (home turf) and took some pics as we could not make it. Again, this is a community style supper put on by, and for, the volunteer fire department of the town of Pawlet, Vermont. It is held on the first day of deer season and features the trinity of bear, deer, and moose (with chicken pot pie rounding out) and squash, pies and lots of cheddar cheese. It is pretty much a belt buster. Long tables and a wait to get in create a great atmosphere. We make it every other year; last year did the double bill and hit the fireman's breakfast the next day 2 towns over...Anyhow here is the round up from November 12, 2011. Thx Mike.
The fantastic Mach's store in Pawlet almost got washed away by Irene in September. If you visit, you can look down through the overhang (featured below) and see the river (Flower Brook) going underneath.
Waiting in line at 6-7pm on a Vermont November is not a joke. Not too bad this year looks like.
Each table gets macaroni salad, pickles, rolls and butter, and a plate of cubed cheddar.
THAT is what I am talking about. Paging Wm. Brown... Venison meatloaf? Yup.
A slice of Americana. Or go crazy as below. The joke is; the supper is free -you pay $12 for a slice of pie.
