8# turkey breast

mhill7 · 11-15-2009, 07:57 AM

How many people will an 8# breast feed?
I need enough for 24 people.

Thanks!

That should cut it, depending on your audience. You are looking at 5.33 oz per.

Does it have a bone? If it does, then you may be close.

8 pound bone in is more like serving 8. better get two or three

mhill7 · 11-15-2009, 08:50 AM

I was thinking either 3 or 4 - 8# breast ,bone-in I think would yield 6# of meat.

3 breast = 18# / 24 would be .75# per person. Is 3/4 # per person ok?

Ron_L · 11-15-2009, 09:01 AM

Most folks figure 1/4 pound of meat per person if you are serving sides, etc. I use 1/3 pound just to be safe.

if its bone in i would say 8-10

big brother smoke · 11-15-2009, 10:43 AM
