Need some quick "how much to cook" advice

The plan for Thanksgiving day was already in place....2 butts (total of about 13-14 lbs after trimming) and a 14 lb turkey...all done on the WSM. The butts go on late this afternoon and I'll stoke up the fire tomorrow morning and get the bird on about 10 or so. The plan was that we could have had 20 guests, but it's turning out to be just 13.

Here's my problem: We have a bunch of friends that are coming over on Friday to consume 'leftovers' (I tell myself it's because of my bbq skills!) This will be a group of closer to 20 people, and I'm pretty sure there won't be enough leftover butt/turkey to go around. Should I be planning to throw some baby backs on the smoker Friday afternoon?
 
Keith,

I would have some ribs as well. I like a variety of meats and most of the time when I cook I do 3 or 4 different meats so everyone can have what they like the best. Works for me anyway. With the foodsaver stuff it's easy to save and freeze if you have any leftovers of the leftovers,,,,,,
