Turkey crown will be pure meat, leg of lamb should yield at least 3lb of meat that means at least 9lb of meat for 12 people. Even without potatoes, veg, desert and other sides that would mean each person eating 3 1/4lb burgers.
I usually use 4oz of meat per person as a guide in my catering business so unless you are feeding sumo wrestlers that will be plenty and enough for the evening and possibly the next day. |
