This will provide party size portions and leave you about 3- 3 1/2 pounds left; this would be a wonderful cold item for family the next day, for great sandwiches , etc. I would not make less than 10 pounds for this party even if I did not plan leftovers.

The "small end" is the premium end of the roast.
