My boy is turning 4 in a few weeks and we are going to have a BBQ
Last year I did ribs and they seemed to be a hit, but in the intrest of keeping things from getting redundant I am going to do a pork butt instead of ribs. My question is how much should I plan for per person? We have 10 adults, 3 children under 4 years old, a 12 year old and a 10 year old. So 10 adults and 5 children for a total of 15 people. Going to set out buns for choice of sandwiches or just pile some on a plate and chow down, everyone else is going to bring a side. I was thinking about doing 2 8-9 lb butts.....but I am afraid of having too much, then again I'd rather have too much than not enough if I only did one butt.
8lb (if I did 1 butt) x 16oz per lb = 128 oz
128 oz div. by 12 (3 of these kids wont eat much
) = 10.66 oz per person. does this sound ok or should I throw on a rack of ribs for good measure too.
