18.47 pounds of raw meat. One picnic, one butt. I got exactly 8 pounds of
finished product. That's 43%.

Oops, I forgot about the pound I had to eat to see if it was any good. That
brings the yield up to almost 49%.

I suppose if I'd done 2 butts the yield would have been better, but there
was more than enough for the party as it was.

I won't be doing any more calculations like this cause I really don't care
that much. <G>
