[LA Pork Butt]

Half pound should be fine unless all the guests are college age males.

Welcome to the pit from the California Delta.
I did a pulled pork cook for about 100. Smoked 70# of butts and had a little left over. If you have sides 1/2 per should be good.

Welcome to the Pit! I did a 5 year stint in North Florida (Jacksonville) but moved back home a couple years back.

To answer your question I would plan on 1 pound pre-cooked weight per person. After some minor trimming and cooking weight loss you will probably end up with 1/2-3/4 pounds of meat per person. Most people won't eat 1/2 pound, some will, but you definitely don't want to run out of food at an event like this.
