Hi, Ken, Yes, they will be big eaters, but still, this is a LOT of food for 150. Here are some thoughts
300 leg quarters- no more than 140 pounds- cut apart about 1/3 after cooking, so people can take a quarter and a piece. You have a menu problem here. In 150 people, there may be some vegetarians, and with the meaty dirty rice, there is nothing for them to eat. A quick solve would be to do a meatless rice, such as an almond pilaf, and a side dish of meatless beans, about 4-5 gallons, could be a vegetarian baked bean or white bean casserole with corn, or some such. This would also make sure everyone has plenty of food. 12 gallon of tea about right, probably none left. Hope this helps. If it saves you time, trouble, or money, please make a donation, maybe a dime per guest, to support this site. Thanks. |
