try 1/4 lb per person

∙ 13y ago30 pounds of turkey should be needed to feed 30 people. There should be at least 1 pound of turkey for each adult.
Well if you bought it from the store then it should say on the package how many people it will feed.
One pound of turkey should be cooked for each person eating. A turkey that will feed 10-14 people should weigh around 10-14 people.
Cooking smoked turkey breast is much faster and much simpler than cooking a fresh turkey. Just follow the cooking instructions on the Jennie-O packaging.
I've never done both on the same day, but if it were me, I would do the rib roast first, let it rest, then refrigerate it, then do the turkey. I would then pull the rib roast out of the fridge about an hour before the turkey is done so the interior of the roast can come up near the exterior temperature of the meat. After finishing the turkey, I would tent it, and leave it to rest, and then I would pop the rib roast back in the oven, on a much lower temperature than it originally cooked in, to slowly warm the meat back up to a nice warm temperature. Doing the reverse, and reheating the turkey, that might be asking for trouble. It would be all too easy to overcook or dry out the turkey, whereas with the beef, you can slightly undercook it the first round, and then bring it up to medium rare or medium (as desired) the second time.
It depends somewhat on what kind of meat you are talking about: beef, pork, turkey, ham . . . and whether the roast is bone-in or bone-out. A 5 lb bone-out beef roast should serve 12 to 14 people, with a serving size between 1/4 lb and 1/2 lb.

According to butterball.com you will need 27lbs of turkey. Figure one pound a person equals that many pounds a turkey. 18 people = 18 pound turkey
ANSWER: 3 pieces of turkey and 3 scoops of dog food!
there are MANY variables, not the least of which is the size of the breast. I have found approximately 6oz per breast is not an unrealistic estimate. assuming your talking boneless breasts, that says you are getting just under 3 breasts per pound. so one could estimate 120 portions, but be sure to allow yourself some margin of error for those variables. bone on will of course be cheaper, but will lower the number of servings per pound. good luck
Hi, Jamie Oliver's website recomends a 1.6KG chicken will feed 4-6.. I guess it depends on how much each person will eat! http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/meat-recipes/perfect-roast-chicken this is a great recipe.. Don't forget Free range
