We're going on our first trip in two days. The campground we are going to is having a potluck thanksgiving dinner. I am not sure we will attend but saying we do...what is considered an acceptable amount to,prepare. We are a family of four.
I have some standard things I take for pot luck meals. I usually just use the largest dish/bowl I have.
Ribs....6-8 racks fit in my slow cooker, meatballs or chilli I fill the slow cooker
If the recipe calls for a glass pan then I would make enough for
a 9 x 13.
Could you call the campground and ask if they know approximate numbers of people.
The lady next door does a lot of pot lucks and her family is a 4 person. Whatever she makes she takes enough for 12. She never takes 1 pie but at lest 2.
You can never take too much.
