I should have plenty of help at party time, but very limited help leading up to the party, which is why I didn't plan on a variety of fruit--takes too much time to prepare.

Does this sound adequate?

Thanks for your valued input!

30 lbs. pulled pork
30 lbs. Sulled chicken

meats are good, you will definitely run out of meatballs though- 15-18 pounds would not be too much

3 of those large pans mac & cheese- you need at least 12 pounds dry pasta, that is more like 4-5 pans, plus 1 quart sauce per pound
2 roasters baked beans- you need 4 1/2 gallons

3 1/4 gal. cole slaw- OK
2 pasta salads- 6 pounds dry pasta total
2 asian broccoli salad- 15 pounds broccoli, approx

7 large bags potato chips- 1 pound per 12
Dip!- 1 cup per 8

veggie tray: plenty
5 lbs carrots
3 lbs. celery
3 qts. grape tomatoes
8-10 cucumbers
3 lbs. broccoli
3 lbs. cauliflower
dip- 1 cup per 8 if thin/ Ranch

1 gal. pickles- good
1 gal. olives- good

watermelon (just making small slices)- about 1/2 pound per person

6 gal. ice tea (2 sweet, 4 unsweetened) I would do at least 10, 12 would be OK, the new fruit flavors with green tea are festive; or some could be lemonade
bottled water - several cases- 2 per person, buy from somewhere you can return unopened cases
pop - several 2 liters of various kinds- see the beverage planning page for assortment and amounts, plan for 100
ice - at least 1/2 pound per person

strawberry short cake:
36 pints of berries
12 cans whipped cream
18 pound cake loafs
looks good!

mmmm lucky party goers

If you have a good many adults, consider dinner level coffee from the beverage page- very nice with a scoop of ice cream in it.
