A potluck is a communal meeting in which each guest or group donates a different and hopefully unique, and often homemade, meal to distribute.

Other names for "potluck" include: supper dinner, spread, joining Jacob, Jacob's banquet, banquet of faith, dessert, meal feast, take-away, lunch, neat, to-pass, fuddle, and carry.

Etimologi

Despite some disagreements about its origin, two main theories exist: a combination of British "pot" and "luck" or indigenous North American indigenous potlatch food.

The word pot-luck appears in the work of Thomas Nashe's 16th-century English, and is used to mean "food is reserved for unexpected or uninvited guests, luck from pots." The modern execution of "shared meals, where guests bring their own food," most likely originated in the 1930s during the Depression.

The alternative origins of the word are associated with a common tradition for Tlingit and other indigenous peoples of the northwest Pacific, called potlatch, and are considered by opponents of this theory to be eggcorn or malapropism.

Description

Potluck dinner is an event where the participants bring a meal to eat. Potluck dinners are often organized by religious or community groups, as they simplify meal planning and distribute costs among participants. Smaller, more informal get-togethers with distributed food preparations can also be called potlucks. The only traditional rule is that each dish is large enough to be shared among good (but not necessarily all) portions of the anticipated guests. In some cases, each participant agrees in advance to bring one course, and the result is a multi-course dish. Guests can bring food of any kind, from the main course to the dessert. In the United States, potlucks are associated with crockpot dishes, casseroles (often called hot dishes in the upper Midwest), dessert bars, and jello salads. Traditionally, potlucks are a simple combination of dishes brought together by event participants without a common theme. Recently there has been a growth of themed dinners for parties or special events.
