Meals at the cabin for a crowd

[twinklesstars]

This summer 12 members of my family are meeting up at Disney for a family reunion. We are all staying at different resorts based on budget/preference. Since we are staying at the cabins, the plan is for everyone to gather there for 1 meal a day.

How much cooking space is available at the cabins? I've looked at the pictures but can't really tell. Is the space better suited for lunch (simple sandwiches, chips, fruit tray, etc) or is there adequate space to cook things like meat for tacos, spaghetti, and pizzas? I know there is a grill but not sure the size and if it can be utilized due to the fire risk right now.

Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The kitchen area is totally open to the living area, so plenty of room to move around, not like a galley kitchen. We grilled and only used the stove to cook sides and had no problem. How is everyone getting to the resort? Because, during the busy times, the parking lot gets full and they will only let staying guests in. Then you will have to park at a park and take Disney transportation or maybe park at Fort Wilderness(if they're not packed).

The combo microwave convection oven is small. 1 pizza will fit in there. The stove top is 2 burners. Is anyone driving to WDW? You could bring a crock pot. That's always a good way to fix food for a crowd.

I would bring my Instant Pot and make use of the stove and grill as well.

Thanks everyone! They plan to use Disney transportation as much as possible. We thought that having a mid-day break would probably be best for transportation purposes. That way they shouldn't get stuck later at FW later in the evening.

I do have a crock pot and Instant Pot. I will make sure to put them on the packing list.

if weather is nice you might some extra folding camp/lawn chairs to be able to seat everyone. if you decide on dinner can always change buses at Disney Springs after parks close

I guess a lot of this also depends on what you want to cook. If you need "Oven" space, I think you might be out of luck, although 2 burners on the stove can be a bit limiting, I think you could probably make do with it.
