BBQ Party Food Planner

For a BBQ, plan about 1/2 pound cooked meat, two 4- to 6-ounce sides, 1.5 buns, and two drinks per adult.

Select several foods and PortionPal will combine their quantities into one event shopping plan.

Kids count as about 60% of an adult portion. Every item uses the same PortionPal calculation engine as the single-food tools.

Choose mains, sides, desserts, and drinks
