How big of a turkey for 14 people?

Answer 1

At 1/2 pound of turkey each; 15 x 1/2= 7.5 pounds of meat, x roughly 1.5 for bones, a 10 pounder should theoretically do fine, but 15 pounds would be better, in case you have a bunch of white-meat lovers, or something.

Answer 2

For a whole turkey, allow about one pound per person, which includes a moderate amount for leftovers. If you like a lot of leftovers, allow up to 1-1/2 pounds per person.

Answer 3

You will need an 18 to 22 pound turkey for 14 people. With this size turkey, you should have plenty of leftovers.

Answer 4

A 21 to 22 pound turkey for a normal 14 people meal (some big eaters with some nibblers) if all are really big eaters then two 15 pound turkeys.

Answer 5

13 to 20 pound turkey

Answer 6

App. 1 pound of meat per person.
