This event was sponsored by the New Hope Christian Fellowship Church in Chino, CA. Andrea Hayward is a member of the Church and in May of this year she was admitted to Cedar Sinai Hospital where she was diagnosed with Lupus and TTP. She needed a tremendous amount of plasma for her treatments. The Church and Cedar Sinai set up a blood drive to allow friends, family, and community members to give back and donate blood. The event was a huge success and Big Daddy Black BBQ was proud to be a part of the event.
The cooking team included Aaron (Big Daddy Black), Greg, and Kyle. We prepared and cooked everything on site including Northwoods Version of White Salad, Northwoods Version of Red Salad, Baked Beans, Tri-Tip, and Chicken. All the food turned out fantastic and everyone loved the chow!
Everyone was impressed with the big trailer and the amount of meat it can handle at one time.
Big Daddy checking out the chicken.
We fed over 250 people in under 15 minutes through two chow lines - now that's efficiency!
There was plenty of food for all and seconds through the line was not a rare occurrence. Plenty of comments like "Best Tri-Tip I have EVER had" was heard more than once!
It was a great event and we are all proud of the efforts of the fantastic staff at Cedar Sinai, the incredible support from Andrea's workplace - City of Hope, and the never ending efforts, thoughts, and prayers from Andrea's Church - New Hope Christian Fellowship.
Please support Lupus research and whenever you get a chance - GIVE BLOOD!
Awesome BBQ Aaron!! You are the best!
