When buying steaks the most common size asked for is 225g. 180g is a good size for fillet for the average eater. Mince etc, use 115g per portion in spaghetti but 150g per head for mince and potatoes. For roast beef buying, think 180g per head (raw weight) for children and small eaters and 225g (raw weight) for average eaters.
