How much roast beef for roast beef sandwiches for 20 people?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you figure roughly 2 sandwiches per person...

And each sandwich is 1/4 the size of a regular sandwich...

That works out to 25 whole sandwiches cut into quarters.

So the real question becomes how much roast beef do you need to make 25 sandwiches?

I figure 1/10 of a pound of roast beef per sandwich should be adequate. So that means you'll need about 2.5 pounds. A full sandwich before cutting would be 4/10 of a pound of roast beef which is almost a half pound, so I think 1/10 of a pound would work nicely.

And to be on the safe side, I'd make 60-65 mini sandwiches just to be sure.

What does a 4 pound beef roast weigh after cooking?

Well i will keep it simple... you would want to cook it and then see... :)

8/26/11 - I found this forum AFTER trying my own experiment and being VERY surprised at the results.

I purchase 5 lbs of Kroger 73% lean prepackaged ground beef. I did not check the weight but that is what the package said. After cooking AND draining, I'm ending up with 3lbs 6oz of ground beef. Not what I was expecting.

I couldn't believe it so I repeated it. Same result. I plan to try this again with a better grade of ground beef and making sure I weight it beforehand. This is a 67% percooked weight to cooked weight ratio. Hard to fathom.

The purpose of a roasted peanut is to give the peanut a slightly different taste. Their are regular peanut's, salted peanuts and roasted peanut's. It just gives peanuts more of a variety to eat from.

What is a Pikes Peak roast?

According to Hammer's Farm: "Also called heel of round roast is cut from low in the round, just above the hock. It contains many small muscles and lots of connective tissue. This is the least tender of the round roasts, but it cooks up into an flavorful pot roast using the braising method. This is done by heating oil in a heavy pan on the stove top and browning the meat on all sides. Lower the heat and add cooking liquid and seasonings; cover and bring to a low simmer for two to four hours until the meat is fork tender which will depend on the size of the roast."

How do you cook a roast beef ahead of time?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cook it until about 15 minutes before fully cooked. Refrigerate or freeze until required then finish off the 15 mintues in the oven. Or fully cook ahead of time and simply warm up in the oven until hot again ensuring that you have kept the juices produced the first cooking time round in order to baste the meat to save it drying out. Make sure meat is reheated to a hot temperature to avoid food poisoning.

How long to defrost a 15 pound rib roast of beef?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Defrost in the refrigerator for safety. I'm seeing recommendations for anywhere from 6 hours per pound up to 10 hours per pound. That would mean a total of 30 to 50 hours. A two-day thaw should be a safe amount of time.

How many calories are in deli style roast beef?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are about 50 calories per ounce in roast beef. It depends on how many ounces of beef you use on your sandwich.

No not 50 calories it is 400 calories in a roast beef sandwitch because if you put more than that on it you will get fat.

The answer above mine is a great example of what not to take into consideration when thinking about nutrition. One high calorie meal once every now and then will not cause you to gain a significant amount of weight. Start your basis with the first answer, 50 calories per oz of roast beef, and work from there. It all depends on what you add, vegetables such as lettuce, tomato and the like are nutritional, so they will not count for many fatty calories. It is the ingredients such as cheese and mayonaise that you must take care with if you want to avoid gaining weight. What type of bread you use can also be a factor. (Additionally, even at its slowest the human metabolism burns at least 1000 calories even while you are sedintary. Consuming solely 400 calories a day, therefore, would be starvation.)
