Default Re: Do most home tourneys take a small cut for food/bev costs?

I've been hosting a game for about 5 months and when I started, I didn't charge a hosting fee. Some of the players would offer a few bucks to offset the cost of food and drinks and then players approached me privately and suggested that I should just charge everyone a small fee. I was reluctant at first but decided that I could actually put some serious food out for the game if everyone did contribute.

Our game is a 10 player, NLHE tourney with a $60 + $5 buy-in. The last time around I barbequed about 10 lbs. of pork shoulder in my smoker and served up pulled pork sandwiches, cole slaw, chips, etc. It was a helluva deal for a $5 service fee!
