Dinners ready in two hours. Who wants some?

Throwing this out there in case someone has advice …..
I got a smoker this summer and have been having a great time cooking new (large) meals. But my kids are back at college and I can’t depend on my ex. How do you find people to eat your meals?
It’s a weird situation where it’s a huge pellet grill and smoking tends to focus on large pieces of meat, but not everything freezes well. I want to go gangbusters with feasts, just when I no longer have anyone to appreciate it. Anyone know if there is such a thing as cooking clubs, or something? How do you find one or how do you break into one as a single guy?
Fwiw
- kids are back from college today, ex is coming over and ex-FiL
- smoked duck with orange maple glaze
- chicken for those not willing to try duck
- rice pilaf
- arugula salad with toasted pine nuts
- I plan to throw chocolate chip cookie dough in a cast iron skillet for brownies and top with ice cream
I've heard of cooking clubs being a thing, but I would imagine they're a lot easier to find in urban areas and I'm not sure where you are. I hate to suggest Facebook, but I know a lot of people do use it for meetup groups like that. Then there is meetup.com--odds of finding a cooking club are low but not nonexistent.
Yeah, effing Facebook. I do have an account somewhere because at one point that was the only way to get family pictures and even news from my now-ex - that should have been a red flag
