Depends on the makeup of the group. All men? Men and women? Kids? If
the ribs aren't the centerpiece of the meal, I would figure on 2 ribs
per person, 3-4 if it's a group of all men.

The mark of a good writer is the ability to use the verbiage those
reading your comments might readily understand without any
misperception and not use language that might obscure the intended
meaning and might even depend on the context it is used so as to not
obfuscate the true and exact meaning you are attempting to convey.

A "normal" serving of baby-back ribs is 1/2 rack per person where ribs
are the main course.
