No one had offered to supply stand up food for after the services today so I made a batch of bread in long skinny loaves and sliced 3 pounds of cooked sausage. There wasn't any left an hour after the service ended. We just brought home empty platters.
If you don't count the value of your time for such as this it is amazingly inexpensive. Meat and bread for about 75 people for well under ten dollars.

I had three kinds Ham sausage and chicken curry sausage from Home Production of Quality Meats and Sausages by Marianski and Nick's Celery Sausage from The Sausagemaker's site.

Ross,
It is an amazing achievement to feed about 75 people for under $10.00 on stand up food.
And the fact that none was left an hour after the service ended goes to show that everyone loved it!

I have been able to get chicken leg quarters for 59 cents per pound. and that was the bulk of the sausage but pork butts are just 1.29 a pound here.
I think that sausage was invented to give the people more taste choice and the butcher more profit.
Roast chicken tastes like--------------- roast chicken but chicken sausage can taste like almost anything.
