re: Help! I need to cook a ridiculous amount of rice

Virtually any cooked food fundraiser in south Louisiana requires mass quantities of cooked rice. Gumbo, red beans, white beans, alligator sauce piquant, chicken fricasse, etc etc. I can remember being a middle schooler and learning how to fix hotel pans of rice in the large rack steamers at my community center. Raise your hand if you’ve ever got a steam burn from lifting the lid too quick on one of those bad boys.....

Anyhoo, you might also throw up a FB or nextDoor or other social post; dollars to doughnuts, someone in your network already has one of those giant rice cookers you can borrow.
