What size pig would you think i would need for 40 to 50 people, only thign being served is the pig and hot dogs and hamburgers if someone wants. and normal sides. Thx
I think a 50 pounder would do quite nicely with no left overs.
There is quite a bit of weight loss while cooking a whole hog. I always figure 2 pounds per person. A 100 pound pig on the hoof is a big difference to a cleaned and gutted pig that weighs 100 pounds.
I would do a 30 pounder and back up with pulled pork and charge them at least a grand just for the pig. But I am from NJ and we rip people off!

True my price drops at 100 lbs.The thing you may want to think about is that there is usually a price brake around 60-65 pounds.... For us it came to about 40 cents a pound cheaper to move up a few pounds...
