Pulled pork is a versatile and beloved dish that is perfect for any gathering, from casual BBQs to elegant events. However, figuring out the right amount to prepare can be a challenge. This guide will help you calculate the perfect portion size per person, ensuring that your guests leave satisfied. Factors such as sides, appetites, other protein options, event timing, and leftovers should all be considered when planning. A good rule of thumb is to allocate about 1/2 pound of pulled pork per person, assuming you have multiple sides. If pulled pork is the main attraction with limited sides, you may want to increase this to 3/4 pound per person. For pulled pork sandwiches, plan on serving 2 to 3 sandwiches per pound of pulled pork. With these tips, you’ll be able to host a successful event with delicious pulled pork that everyone will enjoy.
