Decisions, need help!!!

I'm going to cook in a upcoming Mini Fest (their first one). I'm trying to decide between Moink Balls or Tri-Tip. Need to feed about 250 guest. I think the easy one is Moink Balls, but the prep is more tedious. What would you do in my situation? This will be my first cook in a Egg Fest. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Plus, how can I make sure that it is a success? They are giving tokens as the guest come in to give for the best food, and the winner is going to get a prize.

If it is your first eggfest as a cook, keep it simple and enjoy the experience.  pork tenderloins, seasoned and cut up into bite size serving is always good.  pork loins?,  I like sound of moink balls.   have fun and enjoy

The only problem with Tri-tip is you never know how people are going to like their beef cooked.  I think moinballs are a good choice.  The prep is really not too bad for those.   I think what I would do is figure out the right length for the bacon, cut the whole pack to that length, then spread out all the bacon on once side then hit it with rub.  Turn over the bacon and wrap the ball.  This way you don't have to season each meat ball and turn it every which way.

Thanks @SmokeyPitt for the advice. I'll probably do the Moink Balls. The prep can be done the night before, and put in a cooler till I start cooking. That way I càn be less stressed and enjoy myself.
