Benefit for 250 people

06/10/11 		We are having a benefit. We are serving Sliced brisket and sausage plates. Sides will be pinto beans and potato salad. I wasn't quite sure if I calculated about much of each I need to serve. So far I have that I need 125 pounds of raw well trimmed brisket. They sausage it still a bit unclear. The plates will be prepared by us. And I would need 11 1/4 gallons of potato salad. Can you check those numbers and let me know also how many beans I need to make? Thanks

I make 8-12 pounds dry beans for each 100 persons- see my recipes.
