Best Answer

A serving of meat that does not contain gristle, fat or bone waste, is generally 4 ounces. It'll take 10 pounds, assuming that there are no meatballs falling on the floors, none sampled by cooks for taste or doneness. It'd pay to buy 11 pounds of meat,

Twenty pounds. This includes shrinkage leaving about 6-7 ounces of meat per person. I am sure one is also providing the peppers and onions? And also additional dishes? IF NOT... buy yourself Twenty six pounds of quality cheese, parsley, and fennel, home made sausage. Cost around...$182.00

How many pounds of hamburger do you need to make spaghetti to feed 200 people?

It depends on a few things: Is it for making a meat sauce? Typically a meat sauce will have about 1 lb of meat for every gallon of sauce. a gallon of sauce is enough for about 21 (3/4 cup) portions so 10 gallons of sauce and 10 pounds of meat are needed. Are you making a spaghetti and meat dinner? then about 1/4 pound of cooked hamburg per person would be needed PLUS the meat sauce, so 60 pounds of hamburg are needed. Are you making spaghetti and meatballs? Then about 1/2 to 3/4 pounds of meat for meatballs are needed, PLUS the meat sauce so then 110 - 160 pounds of hamburg might be needed.

How many pounds of meat needed to feed 80 people meatballs?

It depends on how big of a meatball that you plan to make and whether your recipe calls for fillers like bread crumbs, eggs, etc. Also, will the meatball be the main course, like in sandwiches or a side dish to pasta? if you were just using ground beef, I would figure two meatballs per person for a side dish to pasta. Each meatball weighs about 4 ounces. So, about 40 pounds of meat would be my answer for a side dish.
