Thanks!

Sorry to be such a pain, but does 35 pounds of chicken sound right? I really am unsure when there are two entrees and it's self serve. Thank you!

Maureen, 1 pound raw boneless chicken per 3 is already counting the beef. 35 pounds will cook down to around 22, which is 2 ounces per person, you need 3-4 per person.

We decided on pulled pork and sliced top round. Please let me know what quantities of bread/rolls I should have.
Thanks for all your help!

Same beef, 1 pound ready to eat pork per 5. 2 medium or 1 1/2 large buns per person. Sandwich fixings are on the sandwich planning page.
