How much pork do you need when catering for eighty people?

Answer 1

On the average a pork loin will feed about twenty people, depending on the size of the loin. A good size portion is between six and eight ounces so around forty pounds of pork should be enough.

Answer 2

There are some recipes that lend themselves to cooking for a large group of people. Soups such as chili, as well as barbequed meats or pastas.

Answer 3

It depends on what other dishes or items are served with the ham, usually 5 to 7 ounces of meat is enough

Answer 4

If corn is the only dish, I'd guess you need about a pint of corn per person which amounts to 1 pound of uncooked corn, so you require about 80 pounds. Which is about a bushel and a half.
