A 45-pound brisket typically yields about 30-35% of its weight in cooked meat after trimming and cooking. This means you can expect approximately 13 to 16 pounds of cooked brisket. As a general guideline, cooked brisket serves about 0.5 pounds per person, so a 45-pound brisket can feed approximately 26 to 32 people, depending on portion sizes and whether other dishes are served.

How much brisket do i need to feed 30 people?

When deciding how much meat to include in a meal, consider other side dishes. For the average serving, you'll need 4oz for a sandwich, 6 oz for a plate. For 300 people, that is 75 pounds cooked. Because of a 40-50% shrinkage depending on cooking time (and fat trimmed), you would need up to half the weight again--which adds up to about 112 lbs.

if you have 50 people you have to make like 100 briskets cause some people might want extras Actually there are a few unknowns that the question does not explain - I will usually purchase 1 lb (trimmed) brisket per person. So if I am having 8 to 10 people to feed, I will prepare around 10 lbs. brisket - this might be two 5 lb. briskets as long as it adds up to roughly one pound per person (before cooking).

For a 2 lbs beef brisket, you should cook it in a slow cooker on low for about 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours. The slow cooking process helps break down the tough fibers in the meat, resulting in a tender and flavorful dish. Always check for doneness with a meat thermometer; the internal temperature should reach at least 195°F for optimal tenderness.
