So this past weekend I met up with a bunch of friends who are still attending college. Being one of the few at the party who graduated and currently work full time, I bought groceries and cooked dinner for everyone. The crowd I was feeding was 25 fraternity guys who haven't had a home cooked meal in several weeks. So needless to say I needed a lot of food. I decided on making some baked ziti. I used 10lbs of pasta, 4lbs of hot sausage, 2lbs of mozzarella, 1lb of parmesan, 48oz of riccota, and about 2 gallons of sauce. The total bill was about $40 for everything, about $1.60 per person. Everyone loved the food and it was gone in about 20 minutes. I figured it would have been plenty of food but we could have easily used another 3-4 lbs of pasta. So SE, what I want to know is, what is your go to crowd pleaser and about how much per person does it wind up costing you?
