Below we've listed the approximate number of servings per pound of meat. Since bones are heavy, it's generally true that when there is less bone in a particular cut of meat there more servings. So use the table below as a guideline, and adapt it to your use with other cuts of meat not listed. Just consider how much bone is in the meat, and choose either the boneless, some bone, or lots of bone servings per pound.
