How Much Turkey Will I Need?

Welcome to Turkey Week at Family Balance Sheet. We will be thawing, roasting, making gravy and stock and of course eating. Enjoy!

Are you hosting 20 people for Thanksgiving dinner or do you just want to take advantage of the great turkey deals that are happening in grocery stores across America this month?

We are going to my mom's for Thanksgiving dinner, so I'm going to be taking advantage of the deals for future use for my family of 4.

But if you need to know how much turkey you'll need to feed a large group of people, the USDA recommends 1 pound per person for a fresh or frozen turkey.

How much turkey will you need this Thanksgiving? Are you hosting a large group or will you just be stocking up on the good deals for your family meals? Let us know in the comments.
