I've cooked gumbo for 50 at my house. The day before I cook batch No. 1 using a large cast iron dutch oven. I then refrigerate it overnight in large tupperware containers.
On the morning of the day I cook batch No. 2 using the same big iron pot.
I steam rice as needed. Moving batch No. 1 from the cooker to a serving bowl and then starting batch No. 2.
About half the guests had seconds. The amount was perfect. Just a little bit leftover. However, I always served appetizers before hand and French Bread during the dinner. Someone also brought along deserts.
Not sure how much a dutch oven = in terms of gallons. I'm guessing about 2.
