I have never cooked for more than about 20 people, usually just groups of close friends, but was asked to prepare all the meat for a church event of about 150 people. I was really nervous but accepted the challenge and am very pleased with the results. I received a ton of praise and compliments, and although it was a ton of work I think the process went well. I made pulled pork, chicken, and a few sides and sauces, and kept everything pretty simple. I think going with easy meats and recipes was good for diners so the food was enjoyable for everyone, and made it easy for me to prep.
Between my GMG Jim Bowie and Masterbuilt Dual Fuel i had plenty of cooking space for 8 shoulders and about 40lbs of chicken.
Good luck to everyone who is trying to cater, I'm happy to share what I learned if anyone has questions.
