Having never competed and only going from what I've read and observed, 4 butts, 2 briskets, 24 thighs, and 5-6 racks of ribs. Couldn't imagine prepping 50 thighs. Understand the $$ issue ... I had to discuss this with my wife a couple times and her statement to me was "as long as you are serious and put the effort in, its OK."
