i usually put that much in a 2 cup jambalaya, but i like more meat. just wondering if the meat would be scarce in a 4 cup

No. Double or triple that.

4 cups rice gives 12 cups of jambalaya. That should be about 6-8 big servings, and about 1/4 to 1/3 lb. (4-6 oz.) meat per serving, if my math is right. That would probably be fine, but you might want to add another lb of sausage if you want it extra meaty.

The question is, was I figurin' right? I ran out of fingers and toes at the end.Posted on 9/3/10 at 8:57 am to aaronb023
When I cook a 1lb bag of rice in a jambalaya I use 1.5 pound of pork 1 pound of sausage and 4 chicken thighs boneless. So about 3.5-4.5 pounds of meat I guess. 1lb is about 2.5 cups. I tend to have a good amount of meat.. But still 2.5 pound of meat for 4 cups of rice seems a bit thin.

not enough meat. double it at least.

I use a total of 18 lbs for a pot with 8 cups of rice. So, cut that in half would be roughly 9 lbs of meat in a pot with 4 cups of rice.

rule of thumb is for pork and sausage jamb, 2x the amount of rice
chicken is 3x the amount of rice
a lbs. of rice is about 2 cups.
