Naked Whiz's site recommends that you take the number of people and divide by 2.4 servings to equal the amount of uncooked pork that you need...
Check out his website, it's great...
He also states that a portion is 4oz.
And that a healthy eater eats 2 portions a not so hungry person 1. -
Yes.. It will actually feed 50+

I just recently cooked 4 butts, all in the 7-9# range for approximately 40 people, and had lots left over for lunches the next week. I figured about 1/3-1/2# of meat per person, weren't sure how many were coming so cooked an extra to be sure.

it's 1/4 to 1/3 per person. That's why you have lots left over.. Which is not really a bad thing :laugh:
