Answer 2

You'll need about 8 ounces (.5 pound) of bone-in poultry per person, and 5 to 6 ounces (.35 pound) of boneless chicken per person. So, you'll need 25 pounds of

bone-in poultry, or 18 pounds of boneless chicken.

I find that 10 to 12 average sized 4 to 5 pound chickens will do. That's about one pound per person. Along with bread and a vegetable side or two, that should be plenty for 50 people.
