Here's a good guideline to go by since it is such a nuisance to run out of supplies during a party or to cope with too many leftovers afterward. The amounts given here are meant for 20 guests. If you are having more or fewer people simply divide or multiply by the appropriate number So for the ham and turkey you'll need approximately 35 pounds of each.
