I'm trying to nail down some serving cost, I can figure cost of goods and even have the final weight vs. cost to know my final cost of cooked and sellable meat cost. My question to you is how much slice, chopped, chopped with sauce, and ribs fit in a standard foil half and whole steam pan?
What I'm trying to do is get my final cost of goods in several sellable ways for catering? Then I can have an idea on true cost of goods going out the door.

Thanks in advance and if I haven't been clear enough just post your question and I will answer.

These pans come in three different depths, so be careful. I call half pans 5#, and if I'm selling by weight I measure to be sure. They'll hold closer to 8# if you mound it up. Double for whole pans, but again, if you're selling by weight, get a scale.

BTW, most states require an inspected scale if using for retail weighing. I'd give approximate weights, but specify volume. I.e. 1qt=2#, 1pt=1#, 1 half pan=5#, 1 gal=5#(meat)
