It includes 80 pounds of ground beef. 20 pounds of pork, 10 pounds of onions, 16 pounds of carrots, 12 pounds of dry bread crumbs, 80 eggs, 2 gallons of m ilk, a gallon of tomato juice and 120 pounds of potatoes. Under the practiced eye and hand of Frank Kircher of Boring, the mountain of raw ingredients is transformed into meat loaf and mashed potatoes for 400 people. Kircher had occasion to practice his skill again last weekend for a semi annual convention his church holds in Woodburn. The thought of K.P. duty on all that food might buckle the knees of less courageous cooks, but Kircher has been undertaking such projects for 31 years. & I Last weekend’s gathering involved eight congregations from Estacada to Portland. Kircher serves as presiding m in is te r of the Sandy West congregation. For the four dinners and suppers, Kircher prepared meat loaf, Swiss steak, roast beef and baked chicken. He said his favorite crowd-size meal is Swiss steak. “ I t ’s just so easy to prepare, and people always like it.” Kircher had only one experienced cook on his crew at this year’s con vention, Marion Wood from Portland who has worked for 38 years as a hotel chef. Wood prepared the gravy for the meat loaf meal served at noon Sunday, and Kircher said Wood’s meat sauce “ always makes the meal. He makes the best gravy I ’ve ever eaten.” The gravy is simple, Wood said. “ I just take a beef stock and add bay leaf, Roux (pronounced “ rue” ) is a semi liquid thickener of fat and flour which is mixed spices, some sweet basil, onions, celery, garlic, salt and pepper. Then when the liquid is boiling, I add my roux.” Almost 1,100 Jehovah’s Witnesses from Multnomah and Clackamas counties were in attendance, and up to 450 were served at each meal. / K irc h e r is not, however, a professional cook. He operates a small mechanic shop on Southeast Orient Drive. His large-scale culinary ad ventures are strictly a hobby. “ I always liked to work around food,” he said. “ Back in 1947 during a church / Staff photo Frank Kircher plans menus for 400 people pomeln Church 11 • à II COMMUNITY PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH fellow ship Worship Sunday School Morning Worship ■ IM M ANUEL LUTHERAN CHURCH 9 30 a.m. 10 a.m. 11 a.m. Worship Sunday School A Bible Study Worship 8:30 a.m. PASTOR FR A N K KOEPKE Church 6 68 454 3 6 68 6 23 2 - (iindlarid (Formerly Wem m e BiblaChopel) Full Gospel Fellowship Son Bible classes............10:00 a.m. Son. morning worship. . . . 11:00 i n .
