Help with food quantities for a bike rally
Gerald Richard
01/16/12 		Dear Ellen, I am looking to vend at a biker rally in Red River New Mexico. The attendance was 30,000 last year. The event is 5 days of 11 hour days and the last day is 4 hours. I was thinking of sausage native to Louisiana, I have a connection for purchasing. I thought of 2 different types of sausage to grill. Each type of sausage comes 5 to a package. I was also thinking of frying boudin balls which come 9 to a package. For the morning I was thinking of making beignets and coffee. I am not sure how to calculate for this event. I would really appreciate your help.

chef2chef.com

If you have never deep-fried at an event, I will tell you it is the messiest and most dangerous type cooking in large amounts.
