Kids aren't usually wild about potato salad, and if you're expecting a lot of them, ramp up on the mac n cheese. Do the math and the conversion and you get roughly, 13 pounds of each side. That's simple, or 3/5ths of 100, or 60 grams per person of each. Now let's calculate your sides assuming that people will want 3/5 of them regardless of what protein they want. So say about 17 1/2 - 18 pounds of each protein. Important: I don't know if your chicken is bone-in or not, if it's bone-in, add a third back into that number. You begin with: Chicken * 160g * 50 / 1000 * 2.2 (conversion) is 17.6 pounds So let's say it's 50/50 when it comes to people that want pork or chicken (it never ends up being that, but it's a great place to start).
You've got pulled pork and chicken, and sides that people (including kids) are equally likely to want. Because at the number of items you have with absolutely no data on what tends to move the most, you're going to end up with a ton of extra food and likely fall short on what people wanted the most.įor the rest of this answer, I'm going to assume the mixed veggies are going away, because it really does simplify this a bit. You've got cole slaw there and corn, that's more than enough. I would strongly encourage you to drop one side dish, and suggest dropping the raw mixed veggies.
#HOW MUCH MAC AND CHEESE FOR 150 PEOPLE PLUS#
Mains (meat / pasta with sauce / fish) 160 grams (or 100 grams of protein per adult, plus 60-ish grams of sauce, garnish, etc - this allows for a bit of extra).This is how we anticipated an adult serving: I worked in an Italian place that occasionally did banquets.
