I just picked up the butts, 4 cryos of two butts each and each cryo averages 15 lbs. The final number of guests is 38 broken down as follows. 14 men, 18 women and 6 kids. Also need to factor in appatizers, 11 lbs of cole slaw, potato salad, baked beans, and corn bread along with cake and ice cream.
Ive modified the smoker to give me the extra rack so if need be the capacity is there.
The question is how many butts? I can theoretically fit 6 on the cooker at once. Keeping in mind they average 7-8 lbs each were looking at about a 16+ hour cook given the amount of meat. I just want everyone to walk away stuffed and not have to worry about running short of the pork.
