On the 26th I got asked to smoke chicken quarters for 75-100 people.  How much charcoal would I need?  I was gonna get the twin packs of blue from sams.  I'm gonna be using all or some of these smokers.  An offset, a weber 22.5 kettle, a cheap smoke 'n' go, and I'm hoping to borrow the good one from BBQ island.  Thoughts?  I might do some butts too.

You should be able to get by on the twin pack...

Like Mike said, a K Twin pack should be good, but buy 2 twin packs just in case.  Hell, it's not like you wont eventually use it.

I got the 21.6 lb K twin packs at Sams last week for just under $15.  Also, IGA has chicken quarters in the 10lb bag on sale for 49 cents/lb.  Great deal if your cooking a lot of quarters.

I love animals.  They're delicious!
