I have my annual summer party this weekend. 40 ish adult guests. Here is the menu with all raw numbers

8lb packer brisket (slices and burnt ends)

2 racks of baby backs

3- 8lb pork butts (bone in)

double order of Dutch's Baked beans

a ton of ABT's and pork shots

I'm not worried about everyone getting a taste of everything, I just want to make sure everyone gets meat of some sort. there will be a bunch of other sides like potato salad, cole slaw, cornbread, etc....

What do you guys think.......
 
The butts alone would be 24 lbs raw weight should be 12-14 lbs finished product and at 1/4 lb sandwiches you have at least 48 and that is on the low side of yield so I would say with the other meat you have plenty. Hope it's a great success and everyone has fun
 
Looks good I'll take a couple slices
