Hi Ellen Our church is serving a wedding, buffet style to 250 people at 6pm end of July. We have a commercial kitchen with lots of space and help. I'm not sure of these amounts. roast beef-55lbs boneless chicken breasts cut each one in two-70lbs I figured we'd need a total of 125lbs of meat am I correct?
mashed potatoes-80lbs |

Roast Beef & baked chicken Dianne, even if you have a server for the roast beef, you need at least 90-100 pounds for 250 people (I normally recommend 125 pounds, but I'm betting you are a budget). Then 60 pounds boneless chicken.
mashed potatoes-80lbs- suggest 100 With all those great ovens and stoves, could you consider something like a roasted veggie dish served room temp? suggest some appetizers? Fruit trays, see the fruit tray page, maybe cheese and crackers- you can do logs and spreads- 30 pounds cheese and 15 pounds crackers. |
