How will you ever peel and chop them all? I'd go to a wholesale
restaurant food supply store and buy frozen hash browns, with the prep
done and just the cooking left. You could cook them on a big griddle if
available, or on shallow baking sheets in the oven. That's not an easy
dish for that size crowd.
