About how much cooked pulled pork fits into a shallow full hotel pan? I never bother to really weigh as I don't sell by the tray. I am thinking about 9lbs cooked, or 2 whole butts worth.

Thanks.

The shallow pan is only about 6 lbs (10-12lbs pre cooked). The deep will hold the two butts (18 lbs pre cooked) you speak of.

bizznessman he is referring to disposable aluminum pans used in chafing dishes.

Thanks for the info guys!
 
I use a 6" deep pan to pull and serve my pork in and it will hold 8 butts or 30 lbs. We put 6 lbs in 3"deep foil pans. A full 3' pan will hold 12 to 14 lbs.
 
I always use the 1/2 tin, which holds a nice 5 pounds leveled out..easier to warm easier to handle..
