How many people would a 13 pound turkey feed?!


Question: On the average, when calculating this, you would want to figure roughly 1-1 1/2 pounds per adult. So a 13 pound turkey would serve roughly 10-13 people, depending on how much they eat.

In my experience, this does work. I cook a 15-17 pound turkey for 9 people each Thanksgiving and there is always enough white and dark meat left over for a sizable heap of meat.
