Hi Ellen
I am making the majority of the food for my wedding could you tell me how may pounds of macaroni salad and pasta salad I would need for 180 people and also how much ham and roast beef I would need? I am also having a pig roast and deep fried turkey, these two things I am having catered

Shelly, it depends on how big the pig is; 1 pound raw is one person. I would then do 1 pound roast beef per 5 people for everyone, and 1 pound ham per 4 people for the number of people not covered by the pig weight.

I do 5 dozen eggs to make deviled egss for 100.

Red beet eggs, are a local preference, since they do keep, you might do 6-8 dozen.
