The general rule of thumb is that one pound feed 5-6 people. So go general, one pound feeds five, ten pounds should feed fifty. Think about it though, if you are considering feed spagetti to say a group of football players at perhaps a pregame dinner, it is better to think more (much more) than less. I would, from personal experience, double the amount you would cook for the average group.

I usually provide 3/4 cup per person, some sauce will dehydrate while sitting, or while cooking. A typical pasta portion will have 1/2 cup of sauce. So count on about 2 1/2 gallons of sauce if you are making sauce or at the very least 2 #10 cans plus a quart if you aren't making it.

A serving size of spaghetti sauce is 1/2 cup or 4 ounces. So one 16-ounce jar of sauce would contain four servings. Therefore, twelve and a half 16-ounce jars of sauce would be needed to feed 50 people. (50 divided by 4 = 12.5)

How many pounds of hamburger do you need to make spaghetti to feed 200 people?

It depends on a few things: Is it for making a meat sauce? Typically a meat sauce will have about 1 lb of meat for every gallon of sauce. a gallon of sauce is enough for about 21 (3/4 cup) portions so 10 gallons of sauce and 10 pounds of meat are needed. Are you making a spaghetti and meat dinner? then about 1/4 pound of cooked hamburg per person would be needed PLUS the meat sauce, so 60 pounds of hamburg are needed. Are you making spaghetti and meatballs? Then about 1/2 to 3/4 pounds of meat for meatballs are needed, PLUS the meat sauce so then 110 - 160 pounds of hamburg might be needed.

How much spaghetti to feed 90 people?

Figure 8 servings per dry pound of spaghetti. For 35 servings, then, you'd need 8 servings x N pounds = for 35 people N = 4.375 lbs. of spaghetti So you need to buy 5 pounds of spaghetti to serve 35 people. Personally, I don't think 8 servings per pound is enough for each person. I like spaghetti too much. I would personally figure 5 servings per pound. That would mean: 5 servings x N pounds = for 35 people N = 7 lbs. of spaghetti. But maybe I'm too much of a piggy about it!
