how much charcoal do u reckon one needs for a party of 30

viciouskitty74 SG

Has anyone considered, maybe the food is the 30 ppl?

1 litre of organic virgin olive oil is good enough for basting.

Heck....can even skip the organic portion and goes straight for the olive oil and salt.

Oh sorry mates.. erm no we're not eating people except maybe the children and the neighbours dogs. But this is what im planning on cooking.

150 satay kebab things; SATAY ROCKS btw.

90 chicken wings

about 30 steaks

1 pack o marshmallows

about 5 pineapples (sliced and such obviously)

20 stalks of corn (uncut yet; i.e. 10 packs of corn whereby each pack has 2 corns)

60 sausages.

the rest of the food wont need bbqing. But how much do i need for all that?

Oh. At least one pit. Depending whether my mates can bring theirs. Size is about 2 A3 size papers. My grill will be made from a steel drum.

It's a big pack of marshmallows.

From Giant superstore.

Or maybe the sausages are the size of uncut pastrami. Ok, I take it all back.

3 bags of 3kg charcoal.

And now I finally know why you were looking for a metal drum.

If totally clueless about the amount of charcoal needed, just buy more lor.

After all, not like the charcoal has an expiry date.

Can still use for the next BBQ.

And the next.

Haha disparage my drum all you will. When its built i'll post pics up ;).

Nah its just that the party committee wants a final cost figure on how much charcoal is needed and stuff like that- and i really dont know coz at BBQs ive been at, charcoal is basically just UNLIMITED haha.

Thanks though,

I believe you, last time in one of my projects, we made a bbq pit from 1/3 of a 600dia steel pipe.
