Chicken for Cyw: The Ideal Amount for Show Preparation

[Becca_in_MD]

Those that have done Chicken Your Way for shows - how much chicken are you doing?

I do 3-4 chicken breasts. I prefer 4.

I've done this show several times now, and there has never been leftover chicken.

I've done it once and used 4 since that is how many fit in the grill pan at one time.

at our cluster meeting we used 2 large breasts, cut into 1/2's--that way we could try 4 different rubs

I did 4 at my first show with it, and there was one little piece left. There were about 8 guests. I can usually stock up on chicken when it's $2/lb. Just seeing if less would be OK or if I need to plan on more if there are going to be 15 guests. They also ate all of the simple salad I put together but not so much of the grits (yes, I did too much and knew it at the time but still did it

Thanks, Becky, for your tip in another thread about using the meat tenderizer during the demo. Love that personal safety device!
