six pounds of dry beans
it entirely depends on how much these 12 people eat!
To determine the amount of baked beans needed to feed 90 people as a side dish, we must first establish a serving size. A typical serving of baked beans is around 4 ounces. With 16 ounces in a pound, this means each person would need 0.25 pounds of baked beans. Therefore, to feed 90 people, you would need 22.5 pounds of baked beans (90 people x 0.25 pounds/person).
I would make 12 pounds
45 pounds will do it.
I would serve 11 pounds
I would serve 4 oz per person. So 5 pounds for 20 people.
I would make 3.5 pounds
Are they ONLY eating beans, -If other items are on the menu then YOU need to tell us to get a proper answer. If they are only having beans I would make about 100 pounds of beans.
To determine the number of institutional size cans of green beans needed to feed 100 people, we first need to establish the serving size per person. Let's assume a standard serving size of 1/2 cup of green beans per person. With 100 people to feed, that would amount to 50 cups of green beans in total. Institutional size cans typically contain around 6-7 cups of green beans, so you would need around 8-9 cans to feed 100 people a 1/2 cup serving of green beans each.
On average, a pound of dry pinto beans can yield about 6-8 servings when cooked. To feed 150 people, you would need approximately 19-25 pounds of dry pinto beans. This calculation is based on each person receiving a serving size of cooked beans.
It would depend on the recipe and portion size, but a general rule of thumb is about 1/2 to 1 pound of uncooked beans per person. So, for 50 people, you would need approximately 25 to 50 pounds of uncooked beans.
