How Much Brisket for 20 People? (Or Any Number)

Plan the right amount of brisket for your BBQ or party. Cooked brisket yields about half its raw weight.

For 20 guests, you'll need approximately:

10 lbs of raw brisket (before cooking)

That's about 0.5 lb raw per person. Add 10–20% if you want leftovers.
