Do you mean that you will be cooking burgers for everyone on the
b-b-q!? In that case I would say 1/3 pound per person!. It makes a decent burger!. So about 40-42 pds!. also grab a pkg or 2 of hot dogs as some people may prefer dogs over burgers!.

also have about 40 tomatoes sliced, 30-35 onions sliced, and a big jar of pickles!? Are you going to do cheese as well!? Figure for about 100 slices of cheese as not everyone will want cheese!.

You could also grill some of the onions if you so desire cuz there's nothing like grilled onions on a b-b-q'ed burgers!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depends on what you're cooking !.!.!.!. burgers (if you make your own) or chilli!.!.!.!.!. generally I would say calculate roughly a quarter pound of meat per person !.!.!.!.when you cook it up you will no doubt add things to the cooking that will turn the meat into a meal and not everyone will eat the meat - some may eat more than others !.!.!.:)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depending on what sides you will be offering or would be brought by guests I'd say 1/4 to 1/2 lb per person!. Think about the fact that the uncooked weight is different than the shrinkage during cooking!. So I'd say about 60 lbs if no other meats are offered ie chicken, dogs, kabobs etc!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

50 to 60 pounds!. Figure the men might eat a half pound each, or two quarter pound burgers!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
