The Making of the Six Squirrel Paella

It has been proclaimed that the Chief makes the best paella this side of Barcelona.  The Chief himself states that his paella has no rivals here or in Spain.  Each offering has its own character.  The Poe Paddy Paella was warming and full of flavor.  This BWS Paella was rustic in character and possibly the Chief's best ever.  But he could not have pulled it off without help.  The two most important elements in making a fine paella is one, having a level pan and two, having a controlled fire.  Finding anything level in Potter County had been difficult for the Chief this week and his 22" paella pan was giving him fits.  Chief neglected his wood supply and it became soaked during a deluge.  The paella was going to be a disaster thought the Chief so he hit the bottle.  Well the Boys pitched in and began leveling the pan.   How many Pro Staffers does it take to level a paella pan?






Midger saved the Chief's Six Squirrel Paella.  First with perfect marination of the tasty animals using no less than twelve ingredients.  Second, Midger managed the fire with true expertise, controlling the heat throughout the cooking process and producing a perfect socrarat across the entire pan! 


Thank you gentlemen for making the BWS Six Squirrel Paella a success!

GOOD LUCK!

I believe the correct answer is 2 VP’s and 2 trainees minimum. 1 Pro Staffer to level the pan (must be a VP) and 3 or 4 Pro Staffers eyeing up the pan from different angles (at least one VP for this task also). Considering the importance of a level pan and the amount of alcohol consumed this number could easily reach 6 or 7.
Just don’t give away the secret to leveling the paella pan; we don’t need no stinking level.

Good Luck
