How do I determine how much food to buy for my wedding?
There will be about 80 adults and 20 children. My wedding will be on July 4, on the beach. I do ribs, burgers (beef and Turkey), hot dogs, (tilapia, catfish and Whiting), wings and a variety of parts. How can I determine the amount of meat to buy?
You apparently have a catering service to offer this service for you. I'll try to give some guidelines and suggestions. 1. Do you have someone to make dinner for you to enjoy your wedding? 2. Make sure you have all parts available also, barbecue sauce, tomato, onion, pickles, hamburgers, hot hot dogs, chips May, mustard, etc. entrees, and plastic cutlery. Cups and glasses, serving utensils, tongs, spatulas. serving dishes for if necessary. 3. Sit back and as part of a comprehensive list as possible for these items, since the figures on the cost. 4. Designate those individuals who are willing to serve, cook and clean for you what we know to be addressed. 5. Amounts: a piece of ribs usually has about 12 ribs per slab for ribs Figure 3 person = 4People per slab = 20 plates, then add 5 plaques on taking more. Figure 1 hamburger and 1 dog per person, but since the ribs was going to buy about 60, 45 and 15 turkey burgers and 40 dogs primarily for children and cook them as needed. You can freeze the rest. If you are doing too wings, 3 bags of Costco-type store would probably be enough. Fish: 1 / 2 piece per person and three guys who do not buy much with all other foods. Salads: 1 green large, 1 large pasta, 1 large fruit salad Please remember these are just guesstimates from my experience. It usually is reduced somewhat because people are not going to eat one of everything so you figure 60% in each subject. It's OK to run out of an item. The main concern is to stop doing this. Put one of her bridesmaids in charge of organizing the implementation of the cleaning service. Maybe their parents or can help with this. Another possibility is to hire a service that has a wooden barbecue mobile grill for cooking and providing all the dishes, etc. Leave the purchase for him / her. They will know how to solve it, and are cheaper than a caterer. Hope this helped
