Turkey a la King

[flamingfingers]

Marinated baby back ribs, baked yam, steamed broccoli. Appetizer is fresh West Coast mussels on the half shell with garlic butter. Can't imagine people buying those inferior PEI mussels!

[Glacier]

Salmon steaks and beef steaks.

no veggies?

Ya, there were that too, but I usually don't list everything when I post in this thread. The meal also included steamed cabbage and mashed Yukon gold potatoes - both grown in the neighbourhood.

but look it was the exciting part of the meal.

Question: We have a 20+ lb turkey for Saturday night. Is this enough to feed 7 adults and 12 kids (ages range from 2 to 11)? How about if we invite another 2 adults and 4 kids (same age range)?

Rule of thumb is an average 1/2 lb. to 1 lb. of meat per person depending on how big their appetites are.

Might want to have a second option like a small Ham maybe.

Are you kidding? 1/2-1# of MEAT/person? Who do you think I am? A K-9? a McD's 1/4# + small fries is enough to give me a belly ache. I am a 200# man and....there is NO way that I could eat 1/2# of Turkey in one meal and 2 lunches.
Add potatoes, 1 bun, maybe a salad, 1 veggie.......and I will fall asleep before desert.
It's now, "NO wonder why", there are sooooooo many leftovers.

Do the math. Do you eat 1 pound of turkey ? A bit much I think. Especially will all the other goodies ( I assume ).1/2 pound or less is more likely IMO. Plus kids don't eat that much especially a 2 year old. Invite everyone. The more the merrier.
