Hi There - I am in charge of the kitchen for a fundraising event. We expect 450 people. Below is the current buffet menu and what we have ordered. I am getting a donation of Ox Roast for sandwiches and am unsure of how many pounds I will need. Any help on that as well as whether or not I am track with the other amounts would be great appreciated. In addition we will have very light appetizers prior to dinner.

Tossed Salad- use the plan for 100 list times 4, then cut the final amount 10% Fried Chicken (700 pieces)probably some left, depending on how much beef Ox Roast Sandwich (???)10 pounds raw (8 pounds cooked) makes 30 sandwiches, Have a server for each line the first round- people can get greedy with beef 500 rolls (to go with Ox Roast) Meatballs in red sauce (70 lbs) plenty Alfredo Pasta Dish (60 lbs)if this is cooked weight, it is 120-150 servings Roasted Red Potatoes (70 lbs) less than 200 servings You are about 100 servings short on the starches if you expect everyone to take full dinner size portions; maybe increase alfredo 10 100 pounds Vegetable (60 lbs) depends on what it is- for 450, I would normally do at least 85 Have really good rolls that can be eaten plain with butter as well as used for sandwiches. If this goes well, please make a donation, maybe a nickel per guest, to support this site. |
