how do you make mostaccioli for a crowd of 120 without it getting sticky?

A few pounds at a time...
Seriously,I use my baked pasta dishes such as the mostaccioli and sausage bake for 120 on the lotsa pasta page for large groups. The usual causes of stickiness are overcooking; cooking without enough water; reheating without the kind of prep discussed in the reheating pasta instructions; or boiling more than two batches in the same water because it takes so long to heat a new potfull of water. Read the suggestions for preparing bulk pasta and you can probably avoid sticky pasta.

Margie, go look on the lotsa pasta page, and also any of the basic budget entrees can be made with mostaciolli as the pasta.
