I did a cookoff a few weeks ago and had to prepare for 100 servings. I used my 10g pot and had leftovers. It was 80% full I believe.

If you fill that 10g, you should be fine. No one is going to punish you for running out.

Id would imagine 4-6 ounces per taster, and I have always found that unless you attract everyone at one of those things you arent going to get the 200, more like 100.

I do a school cook off and teams are expected to cook 5 lbs of rice for pastalaya or jambalaya. Serve the dishes in 6oz sampler cups

I used the calculator and it was spot on. I just added cream of onion, cream of celery and cream of mushroom to make it creamy and different from the other pastalayas.

Is it a meal ? 8z or just a taste 2z. Whatever number they say it will be less. Not everyone will try everything. Remember pasta weighs 2x as much after its cooked.

Piggy backing off this thread- is leftover blackened chicken an acceptable ingredient in Pastalaya instead of sausage?

If you want to cook a meal on your stove at home, you can get away with no sausage. Sausage gives the jambalaya or pastalaya so much flavor.

It may or may not be bad, but it will not be as good.
