Hi,
I don't know how many of the 70 people will be men,women,children. If you have women and children I don't think they will eat 12 oz. of meat.That much meat on a 4" bun will be about 3" thick. I would figure 4 oz. per sandwich and figure 10 percent extra.
As far as the slaw and beans, you could take a 1/2 cup and fill it with water and fill a pan with it to see about how many portions it will take to fill it. I hope this helps.

I don't know how many pans it would take, but for 80 folks I do 5 gallons of beans and 20 pounds of cabbage for slaw.
