I've been approached to cook butts for a college football team for a summer picnic ( no NCAA violations here ok) I think there will be about 70 guys maybe 100, and these are big guys after practice. I am figuring on about 1 lb each to put on multiple sammy's. so if I need 100# of butts, I think I need to start with about 150# lbs losing a 1/3 to shrinkage. someone is in charge of sides which wil be corn on the cob and potato salad.
I know you guys know so what else do I need to know? We have 2 Traeger's to cook it on, (a 75 and the smaller one) but I think we may have to do it in 2 cooks, because 150# should be about 20 butts (I am using 1 butt as they come 2 butts in a package at Sam's), doubt if we can get 20 on the 2 smokers.
