How many sandwiches can you get out of a pound of barbecue?

Answer 1

If you are buying meat in a market where the butcher slices it - it depends on how thick or thin he makes it. If you are buying packaged lunch meat at your store, the package will say how many slices are in it. Packaged lunch meat is mostly sold by ounces. A six ounce package has 8 slices. These packages suggest "two slices" per sandwich.

Answer 2

It depends on the type of barbecue and the size of the Sandwiches. With one pound of meat, you can make one very large sandwich. Typically, a pound of either pulled pork or beef will yield 3-4 "normal" sized sandwiches.

The typical pulled pork or chopped BBQ meat sandwich is going to be a 1/4 pound. This will mean 4 sandwiches per pound of cooked meat. You should plan on a 20% weight lose from raw meat to cooked meat.

There are a couple of ways to stretch the amount of meat you have. Use smaller buns, they hold less meat that way. Slider buns are a great way to go. With pulled pork have a bowl of cole slaw handy to top the sandwiches with.

Making up a tray of sandwiches will also give you a little more portion control.
