pork bellies - big, feed many, delicious, cheap, prep work isn't overly involved.

chicken thighs - affordable, very forgiving (can overcook without drying out), minimal prep work

whole pork loins - affordable, delicious, impressive, not terribly difficult - but not easy

pepper stout beef - affordable, delicious, easy to scale, relatively forviging, easy to keep warm

I did a dozen tritips last weekend for my nephew and it was not as bad as I thought.

Also did some beans. I did smoke two pork sirloins to use for meat in them since we were having beef. Also my ratio was 3 big cans of pinto one big can peeled tomatoes also so el pato yellow can tomato sauce and the best thing to add to beans dry hidden valley ranch seasoning

I reverse seared all the tritips however I do have two performers

Then we did pesto rolls and a green salad

Tri-tips are my go to for larger groups.  Because of the triangular cut of the meat, you end up with the whole spectrum of doneness when cut and served.  Comes in handy when serving larger groups when you don't know individual preferences.

Totally agree with @Cellar2ful . Cook the thick section to rare / med rare and the rest is good to go for the squeamish.
