Sandra
03/13/07 		I plan on ordering carnitas, carne asada and chicken asada for my party. I will also be serving tortillas and rice and beans. How much meat should I order of each meat(pounds) for 60 people?

Thanks

04/20/07 		Counting 60 people as 2/3 of 100 people,
You want 2 sausages per person, weights vary, that is about 7 ounces per person
1/2 cup sauerkraut per person
2 1/2 to 3 gallons potato salad (starts from about 25 ounds of potatoes)
2 gallons of mac salad (starts from about 4 1/2 to 5 pounds dry macaroni)
