how many does this 40oz serve when cooked? I need to feed 40 appetizer portions of shrimp and grits!

I'm the worst person to ask, because I never cook for a crowd. However, the people to ask are the makers of Albers themselves. See if the brand doesn't have a website. I'll bet they do and you can contact them. Enjoy!

¼ cup of unprepared grits is considered a service so there are 28 servings per box. But ¾ cup of unprepared grits, when cooked with 3 cups of water, makes 3 cups of ready-to-serve grits, therefore one box makes 28 cups of cooked grits. And IMO, these are by far the best grits on the market. I can buy them off the grocery shelves in California, but can't find them in Georgia so I resorted to http://amazon.com.

The box displays that it contains 38 servings with a serving defined as 3 Tbsp. (30 grams)

All you need is the 40 oz box, just follow the directions on the back of the box. These grits are the best.

If you're using 1 ounce for each appetizer than the 40 oz box should do the trick.

that's difficult to answer because these grits, with shrimp, are great together. and, if baked, would probably satisfy your 40 guests. so just follow the directions on the box.

4 cups serves six people, so to be safe you would need 7 boxes for a normal portion. I read the box and the instructions. I assume your appetizer portions would be smaller, so you could get away with less. Hope that helps.

1 cup of grits to 4 cups of boiling water makes around 3 cups of grits so there is at least 5 cups of grits in this box although measured ounces I think is a bits less than measured weight. So it should make around 15 maybe a little less of cooked grits which should be plenty for 40 appetizer portions.

Olman ... I've always cooked 'in bulk', and have had few if any problems with THIS formula when cooking on an electric range - 8" burner - 1 1/2 qrt pot): 17 ozs tap-water 7 ozs pre-washed Quinoa Bring water to boil, add, stir, cover Quinoa ... and SHUTOFF HEATING DEVICE ... repeat: turn off heat supply. Let Quinoa stand in covered pot for 12 - 15 minutes After 12 - 15 minutes, remove cover, use utensil to move quinoa aside & inspect any remaining water content. At this point, my batches are usually "dry" & fluffed ... if not ... re-level Quinoa and cover ... CHECK FREQUENTLY until desired consistency achieved. As with any 'cooking from scratch' endeavor --- experimentation is key. Also, as a side note: I also prepare & eat A LOT of beans, brown rice, and hulled barley. To this end, I purchased a 6.33 qrt "Instant Pot" ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0073GIN08/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) several months ago. The InstantPot formula: 4 cups water 8 ozs Quinoa Add ingredients to Instant Pot, turn on pot, switch to manual, choose 10 minutes pressure-cook time, TURN OFF pot and let stand for 12-15 minutes to let pressure/steam dissipate, remove top and move Quinoa to uncovered storage container and do a 'quick-COOL' (ala frig or freezer) to stop cooking process. After many batches using this formula, I have yet to end up with anything but 'dry' and fluffed Quinoa. This has become my preferred method of preparation. Good luck ...enjoy your Quinoa ... and Happy Holiday Season ...

I calculate 36 - 40, based on how long a container lasted @ 1 serving per day

Mostly veggies (green beans, broccoli, baby potatoes, baby carrots, whole artichokes). Steam raw shrimp to cook it perfectly. Steam whole eggs instead of boiling them for Hard Boiled Eggs (this works GREAT and the shells just slide right off). That's all I can think of at the moment, but I'm sure others have more creative usage ideas. :)

The top part of the dish is divided into 4 parts with a removable cup in the middle, which can hold sauces or dips. Each of the compartments are approximately 4 3/4" wide by 6-6 3/4". I have used the entire top for shrimp cocktail-about 2 pounds of large shrimp. It has also been used for vegetables and dip. Although I did. To measure the quantity of vegetables, I would guess that each compartment held about 3cups. The bottom portion of the unit can be used separately and would be great for a large salad or dessert. Although I have only used this a few times, I was satisfied with it. I have seen this same item in a store at a much higher price.

It depends on how much you eat! If using 1 heaping Tablespoon (approximately 9 grams) as a serving, there would be well over 30 servings per bag, however, a large handful (3 heapng TBLS, 27 grams?) per serving could be 10 servings per bag or less...

Serving suggestion is two heaping tablespoons per serving doing this once a day you get at least 75 servings

Kathleen: I have no idea. I use a Tablespoon or so when cooking veggies, or whisk in similar amount into mashed potatoes, also good in gravies. Put s teaspoon or so on the hot side of a steak coming off the grill. I add some to lot of stuff I am cooking (when I think of it) always tastes a little better. Mine has lasted forever; and I will reorder.

looking on the package, it says use a rounded teaspoon for a serving. It also states there are 32 servings per container, at .25 oz per serving, would be about 1.5 teaspoons, so with this product I would say 32 teaspoons is correct. But there are other dry measures that do not come out exactly like this, so always measure...

Not sure. I've long finished this product but have more on the way but I can tell you that for the price to size I was very pleased. There could be something like 20 servings or so. That is only a serious guess. Apologies for not having accurate information.

It depends on what else is being served. I would say 10 or 12. It also depends on how you intend to seve it. For instance nuts in a bowl, dried fruits in bowls. I hope this helps.

I cook them on low for 4 hours but you can do it in 30 minutes. I add a pinch of baking soda to break down the hard out shell of the grits. then add parmesan cheese ( 1/4 cup) towards the end. the yellow grits are better than the white grits. they stick so stir often and regularly and they will still stick.... price you pay for this delicacy.

Roughly 70 2 ounce servings. Less if you do not use pre-measured portion cups

Pretty much. You add a bit of salt (depending on your preference) mix with one part grits to four parts water, stir, and microwave for 3 to 4 minutes. I would go three, stir and see if its thick enough and if not go for another minute. Hope this helps.

I use this as a seasoning. I put pork or beef bones in a large pot with one packet chunks of 3-4 carrots, a large piece if ginger that I've split in half and roasted over an open fire ( I use the flame of my gas stove), and 2 onions I've roasted. These simmer for about 4 hours. Serve over rice noodles. Have a variety of Asian greens and sprouts on the side to be added as desired. And Asian chile sauce ( add carefully as this is very hot).
