1 elephant
Brown gravy
Salt and pepper
2 rabbits; optional

Cut elephant into small bite size pieces. This should take about 2 months. Add enough brown gravy to cover. Cook over kerosene fire for about 4 weeks. This will serve 3, 800 people. If more are expected two rabbits may be added. (Do this only as necessary as most people do not like to find hare in their stew.)
