How Much Meat Do I Use?

Let’s keep it simple (because dinner should be):

  • Small Bomb = 1–2 lbs of meat = feeds 2–4 people

  • Medium Bomb = 3–4 lbs of meat = feeds 6–8 people

  • Large Bomb = 5–6 lbs of meat = feeds 10–12 people

Reminder: Every flavor has its own recipe—so check your recipe card below to see how much water to add. 

Basically:

Pick your bomb. Match your meat. Check your water.

You got this.
