5oz ladle/spoon?

Hey folks,

I picked up a few of these for serving pulled pork and brisket that will go onto buns for sandwiches.

The idea being that when the volunteers scoop they will get a fairly precise amount of meat.

Anyone have familiarity with these? Obviously pulled pork and chopped brisket aren't going to weigh exactly the same, and unfortunately I don't have a scale to check how much actually gets into a scoop so hoping you guys may have an idea. Looking for 5-6oz portions for each serving.

Thanks

Sounds like these are fluid ounces, which is a measure of volume. Each scoop will give you the same volume, but a scoop of stew vs a scoop of flour will give two different weights (masses).

I get about 5.5oz of pulled pork in a 4oz disher. I dont do chopped brisket, so cant comment on that.
