If this is too much to ask, I understand, but please don't refer me to your lists. They are great, but they don't help me since I have cognitive issues due to a brain illness. I'm hosting a 6 hour beach pavilion graduation party for my son, and I hope you can help confirm my amounts for 65 teens and adults, 2/3 male. I plan on serving:
96 burgers What do you think? Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you :) |

Hi, Ciel, I am going to put this all in this answer so you don't have to look things up. I suggest a few adjustments to your amounts.
96 burgers- 80 plenty
20 pounds coleslaw- good
8 large bags of tortillas (assume chips?)
9 pounds baby carrots- 6-8 plenty
100 small watermelon slices- OK, that is about 24 pounds whole full sheet cake- OK, none left
192 cans of coke If this saves you time, trouble, or money, please make a donation, maybe a dime per guest, to support this site. Thanks. |

Thank you VERY much for your help. I really appreciate it. I will adjust my menu accordingly. The only thing I don't understand is the oranges. I thought sliced oranges (skin on) would be refreshing for an outdoor party (juicy). If I substitute mini tangerines, do I serve them whole with the skin on? Thank you again and I will definitely make a donation. |

The sliced oranges are indeed sticky and juicy and draw gnats and ants- the little tangerines with their zipper skins are easy to transport and peel and deliciously juicy without the mess. |
