I really don't do a min/max. It's more an event.
Usually, it comes down to what they want. Like others said it's more about the quality I can serve. If someone comes to me and starts looking for ways to cut costs I can usually send them somewhere else. I'm small enough that I cannot afford to be in a place where we are seeing where we can save money by switching to green beans from baked beans. If you want high-quality food that will be prepared the way you want it no questions asked, I can provide that. If you want sub quality food at a very cheap price, I'm not your person.

I'm just starting out so I'll take just about any job that gets me a little profit and some recognition. If I'm cooking meat only I could probably cover around 450 people, but with trying to make sides and everything else at this point I'd probably set my max at 200.

Punters = people, also people willing to place a bet. In this context, people.

My minimum is $1,000 to leave the driveway. Max so far was brisket and pulled pork for 800 people.
