One of our friends is from Northern IL and works at the Ren Faire in Bristol, WI
and is SCA.  She cooked a "period style meal" over open flame, roasting a chicken
on a spit and making meat filled pasties and cooking them in the coals-half the
faire people were adventurous and the other half weren't-but at least two food
vendors changed some of their lineup.  (BTW: The best tailor at the ren faire is
sca-Felix, and alot of the performers purchased from him.  Something to be said
for the sca folk.)
