If you're conserned about cost perhaps you should reconsider your menu, those
items (ribs n' wings) are very expensive considering how most is waste. A
pound of ribs green weight cooks up to barely an appetizer for an adult, wings
fare worse... and most normal folks wouldn't want to make an entire meal of
foods with so high a fat ratio. It would be more economical and prudent
serving porterhouse steak.
