Chillico...
I need to make several batches of a white chili that I make.

I Spatchcock the chicken, rub and then cook it in the pit
and remove the meat from the bone to use in the chili.

What percentage of finished product do you guys figure the
yield is from chicken?

Like butt is 50% yield of finished product.

I'm thinking about entering a chili contest here in Chillicothe on the 27th and
i'm trying to figure out how many chickens I need to buy to make enough chili.
 
At our restaurant we yield 1#+ of pulled chicken from 3# precooked chicken.

Hope that helps !

Tim
