how many people will a 2.4kg topside joint feed??

774 Posts


Hi guys!
I have 6 adults and 2 children to feed for on boxing day and tesco's are doing beef topside joints at half price per kg so i can get a 2.4kg joint for £14.
Ive googled the above question but i cannot find anything!
3 of the adults are big blokes who are good eaters and the other 3 are me, (normal eater) my mum (small eater) and my pregnant sis in law (not sure how much she's eating! she's due in couple of weeks)
so do you guys reckon this will be enough?
thanks for any help! and merry christmas!

yes defo do lots of veg! i'll do root mash, leeks in cheese sauce, carrots, peas, broccoli, roasties, yorkshires, sausage meat stuffing and i think thats it!
I cook a roast every week for my little family of three but im a bit worried about making enough and how i'll do everything on my 4 ring gas burner!!
can i boil pots the day before and keep for the roasting the following day??
or any other tips you have! cheers peeps!
