Call a grocery store manager. I have found prices are 1/2 price as compared to some restaurants and they will usually give you a break if with a non-profit org.
At our local grocery store 10 Lbs or 60 tenders runs me $35 and that is without a discount.
Grocery Store is $0.58/tender
Chick-Fil-A is 75 tenders for $70 is $1.07/tender
Zaxby's is $0.75/tender
Local restaurant is $1.50 tender ???
That depends on how many tenders each person eats. You either have to assume an amount or ask them individually. Dumby
Depends on how much meat you want each person to have. I would allow 4 oz each, meaning i would use 100 pounds for 400 people.
I would use 100 pounds
30lbs
Whoever said you need to ask them ..... needs to learn how to spell dummy before they call someone a dummy. It is not spelled Dumby!!!!!
Four boned and skinned chicken thighs would generally weigh 1.5 pounds and you would want to allow for about 2 thighs per person. So, for 50 people, you would need about 19 lbs. of chicken thigh in total.
20 pounds of shredded chicken will serve approximately 60 people. The amount of chicken needed is very much dependent upon how it is served.
The average chicken of about 4 pounds to 5 pounds would be enough meat to feed a group of 5 people. The size of chicken needed would depend on the amount of food 5 people could eat in a meal.
~53% is edible meat - after subtracting skin, bones, fat, water....
350 to 400 - depends on what you are making. you can always bake at the same temp, they may just need more time
About 13 pounds of chicken should feed 50 people.
It depends. Is it the main coarse? If so then approximately 12 1/2-13 Lbs.If you allow for shrinkage during the cooking process.
8 people
You would need about 1/4 a pound of chicken salad per person. That will be 17.5 pounds of chicken salad for 70 people.
You probably need around 30-35 pounds of wings for a 100 guests. The amount of wings per serving ranges on the size of the wing.
for 250 people you will need about 30 pounds or more cause people love fried chicken!ANS 2:You'll need to figure on about a pound of chicken per person. 30 pounds for 250 people is like giving everybody one wing.
I would make 30 pounds
