1 elephant
Lots of brown gravy
2 rabbits
Salt and pepper

Cut up elephant into bite size pieces. This should take about 2 months. Cover with brown gravy. Cook over big fire for about 3 or 4 weeks at 465 degrees.

This will serve about 3800 people. If more are expected, add the two rabbits; but do this only if necessary because most people don't like "hare" in their stew.
