So 20 lbs is the ceiling. That would be what, an appetizer-sized turkey in the US?
The "people" estimate is a bit too frugal. I like leftovers. And I like hearty portions. Since I don't normally screw it up during cooking, people actually eat the turkey. You have to be a bit cagey when a british butcher starts asking you "how many people?"
does your butcher factor in leftovers? or inedible bits due to overcooking?
