Samantha
09/30/10 		We are having a wedding 10-16-10; menu is beef on weck, salt potatoes and rigatoni. 150 guests; mainly adults. How much beef? Salt Potatoes? and Rigatoni in LBS will I need? I ordered 300 MINI rolls for the beef on weck. Should that be enough?

Sandwich condiments are on the sandwich page.

09/30/10 		So will I need more than 60lbs of the roast beef?
ellen
09/30/10 		60 pounds ready to eat is fine. 60 pounds raw is close.

09/30/10 		we are not getting the meat pre sliced we are getting roasts and then slicing them ourselves. How much meat is needed as a cooked weight for approx. 150 people. I DO NOT Want to run out of food it would be embarassing!
ellen
09/30/10 		If the rigatoni has meat, I would do about 70 pounds raw, if no meat, about 75 pounds.
