Nobody goes to potlucks.

Authentic Irish stew

I bring myself

Paper towels, napkins, plastic cutlery, bottles of soda, bags of chips, etc.

I cook for MY enjoyment. No way in hell am I going to listen to some normie critique my food.

Scotch eggs. Easy to make, suitable for sharing, always a crowd pleaser and delicious.

spinach artichoke dip

BLT pinwheels. Everybody loves it

vegetarian dumplings

Baked jalapeno poppers -
breadcrumbs pressed into the cheese blend instead of battered and fried - easier to bite into, a hell of a lot easier to cook, and you can get dozens at a time from a few pounds of peppers.

Can also add hot sauce/blue cheese, bacon, etc.

My gf makes a godly buffalo chicken dip that usually gets devoured within the first 20 minutes.

I always bring a nice wine or cheap liqour to make mixed drinks. Alot of the hosts are unprepared in regards to alcohol and i've literally saved parties from just bringing booze.

I love any type of stew with potatoes. What kind of beef cuts do you use?

>Thanks for coming to the potluck, user. I was worried you wouldn't make it.

thanks Gummy Sue, nice to see you also

What are you doing out of the stables

Bag of weed, and I don't even smoke.

Ugghh... Yeah you too

Chilean style empaƱadas.

Grape/chili meatballs

Tiki masala

Some bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers

no don't

Yesterday was the worst dinner I have ever had. I make a rule of not socializing with coworkers, and I should not have broken it. This may take 2 posts, it was THAT bad.

6 coworkers met at someone's house yesterday under the pretense of "Irish stew". I grudgingly accepted the invitation and arrived at 2 pm (when I was told to come). I brought traditional soda bread that had to be baked first. The host made a bit of a stink about using the oven when he had other things in there, but I told him I wanted it fresh.

The stew was still cooking and the host was already drinking alcohol at this time. In the middle of a conversation with a member of the opposite sex, the host tells me, "Please, no talk about politics. PLEASE not today". I said if more people talked about politics we would be in a better country, and he got very argumentative so I just dropped it.

I was drinking apple juice that I brought over and the host kept trying to get me to have a beer. He was obviously intoxicated and starting saying how maybe I would be relaxed and "cooler" if I had some alcohol. It was pathetic, like peer pressure from a high school TV show.

Anyway, at that point I became withdrawn and went for a walk. I came back right before dinner, and that is when the fun started.

He made "Irish stew" with beef, carrots, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, hot sauce, oregano, tomato, and various ingredients. I started telling others that proper Irish stew should only contain mutton, potato, onion, and water, and that beef, tomato, black pepper, hot sauce, and other ingredients would not be available then and therefore it was a modern stew, not Irish stew.

We started eating and someone asked me about what I had said about real Irish stew. The host looked annoyed so I told him. He turned red and told me if I didn't like it I could "get the fuck out and take my apple juice with me".

Deviled eggs.

I was shocked and speechless. He left the room and his girlfriend (they are unmarried but live together) apologized. Eventually, people started talking more comfortably and he came back and was brooding and drinking more.

The stew was okay, but not authentic. I asked him if he knew that mutton was on sale at a local store and he flew into a tirade, bringing up any small error or faux pas I have ever committed at work. People were trying to calm him down, and I simply responded to him in a quiet and calm voice, and said that I appreciated his invitation and his "take" on Irish stew, but it would have been nicer if the company had been more warm.

He got up and pulled me out of the chair, stretching my sweater at the neck. He was literally screaming in my face and had his fist up in a threatening manner.

I told him I would call the cops if he hit me. He then told me to get out and take my "fucking juice and shit bread" with him. A second loaf was still in the oven with 7 minutes left, and I said I wasn't leaving until it was cooked and I could take it.

He shouted at me to leave or he would call the cops ON ME (imagine) and then threw the bread out of the oven on the ground. I was shaking with emotions and told the group that I enjoyed my time with them but I couldn't say the same about the host.

It was a horrible affair, but I decided to make authentic Irish stew today, because I was let down yesterday and had a hankering for it. It is simmering on the stove and I plan on bringing it to lunch tomorrow, one bowl for me and some for the host. It will be a subtle form of revenge as well as a way to show him that I am a better cook and am the more mature, forgiving person.

Any other stories of hosts from hell? People who cannot act respectful towards others in their own home should not have dinner parties.

2befair it sounds like you were kinda a cunt yourself.

That honestly sounds/looks delicious

I used to be addicted to pinwheels when I was a kid now I hate them so much, why?

>buffalo chicken dip

Recipe?

Sounds terrible user, I would like to try your soda-bread, pre-thrown on the ground style

Some people just can't handle free-form criticism

that looks like something jack would make

Only cuntish thing I read was not leaving sooner when he insulted the bread

Some people just shouldn't host until they learn some common decency

Who says Veeky Forums doesn't have good memes?

Used to do white bean chili and corn bread but this year for the office pot luck I did sausage and peppers. Bretty gud.

these

Chuckwagon beans

Meatballs and 'mater sauce with fresh basil, mozz, and parm. You've never felt such sexual tension at a church social. My meatballs could get me at least a guilty handjob anytime.

Recipe? Now I want some pinwheels.

Make sure to cook that bacon crispy as tits and remove most of the tomato goo

I go with pic related served with tostitos scoops. Pretty easy to make and really masks the taste of semen

Chocolate oatmeal drop-cookies
Spinach artichoke dip with tortilla chips

My serving dishes are always the only ones that are empty at the end of potlucks. Though 90% of the things people bring to potlucks (not including store-bought stuff) are usually borderline inedible.

fantastic pasta, was hard to read

...

Cinnamon noodle kugel, both delicious and artery-hardening. Plus a big batch and easy to serve.

Made a caprese salad for a work potluck. Only one person had heard of it and kept calling it a calaprese salad.
