Love it! (Yes, I am a Parrothead!)

I did a show like this - I demo'd Aloha Pizza, the host made Cheeseburgers in Paradise, and we served Margaritas in the QSP. JB was playing in the background -

You could take some of the song titles and play a game or something as well...

Be sure to use the citrus press and press a lime into the QSP, use your FC knives for cutting the lime as well....

Here are a few files that I found (they're not mine) that might help, also the best QSP margarita recipe, everyone loves it and they are so easy! Be sure to have lots of all of the ingredients, at my last show we made 2 double batches (in the family size QSP, you can only fit a single batch in the 2 qt). When I did my Margaritaville shows (they weren't actual Jimmy Buffet shows) we made the fajitas in the DCB and the Slap your Mama Margaritas and the host made a southwestern layered salad in the Trifle Bowl and while the fajitas were cooking we did the Pass Around Salsa. Both times it was all a big hit! Good luck, these are a lot of fun! Hope the files help!

Slap Your Mama Margaritas
1 12 oz. can frozen limeade
2 cans 7-up or
8 oz tequila
1 bottle Corona beer (no substitutes)
Just dump everything into the QUICK STIR PITCHER and plunge. To make it even “slushier”, freeze the 7-up, beer and tequila ahead of time.

Hi Trish,I'm so excited to hear that you're planning a Margaritaville party! It's such a fun theme and I'm sure your guests will love it. As a pampered chef consultant, I have some suggestions on how to make your party a success.First, let's talk about the menu. Margaritaville is all about tropical flavors, so incorporating fresh fruits and seafood into your dishes would be a great idea. You can also use some of our pampered chef products, such as our pineapple slicer or seafood scissors, to make meal prep easier and more fun.Next, let's talk about the drinks. Margaritas are a must-have at any Margaritaville party, but you can also offer non-alcoholic options for those who don't drink. Our pampered chef citrus press is perfect for making fresh lime juice for those delicious margaritas.Lastly, don't forget about the decorations! You can create a tropical atmosphere with colorful tablecloths, leis, and some fun props like inflatable palm trees or a surfboard. Our pampered chef pineapple corer can also double as a fun centerpiece for your food table.I hope these suggestions help make your Margaritaville party a success. Don't forget to have fun and enjoy the party yourself! Let me know if you need any more assistance with menu ideas or product recommendations. Happy party planning!Best,
