Cooking Smaller Portion of Jambalaya in Smaller Pot

I have to cook a jambalaya for about 35-40 people, but the only pot I have is a 20 gallon. Anyone have any issue of cooking a much smaller jambalaya in a larger pot?

You don't have a friend that would loan you his 5 gallon? I don't see why you'd have an issue using yours though. But I have several friends with various size pots. I recently borrowed a 40 gallon to do a jambo for a wedding reception.

I've made half full pots with no issue before. As long as you have a properly fitting lid, shouldn't be an issue.

Just curious, but how much rice (cups) are you planning on using for 35-40 people?

You’ll be fine. My recs: cook 10 lbs of rice, use 2 gallons of water, 25 lbs of meat, 10 lbs of onions. Can’t really mess this up. Bring quart ziplocks and freeze the leftovers.
