How many pounds of meat needed to feed 80 people meatballs?

I need more information to give you an accurate answer! Here's why:

* Meatball Size: Are these tiny cocktail meatballs, or large, hearty meatballs?

* Appetizer or Main Course: Are these meatballs the main dish, or a side/appetizer?

* Other Food: Will there be other substantial food items, or are the meatballs the only protein?

* Appetites: Is this a group of hearty eaters, or more delicate eaters?

Here's how to estimate:

1. Decide on a meatball size: Small (1-2 oz), Medium (2-3 oz), Large (3+ oz)

2. Consider the serving size: Will people have 2-3 meatballs each, or a larger portion?

3. Factor in the other food: If there are other dishes, you can reduce the meatball quantity.

Example:

* Medium-sized meatballs (2.5 oz each) as a main course with no other substantial food:

* 80 people x 2.5 oz/meatball = 200 oz of meat needed

* 200 oz / 16 oz/lb = 12.5 pounds of meat

Please provide more details so I can give you a more accurate estimate!
