Boxing Day buffet ideas 8 people

[hii]

Hi there,
just having a few family members ( 8 of us all in total ) over on boxing night
for a buffet . Roughly how much food should I serve per person , ie how many items ? It’s been a few years since I last hosted and always go overboard so thought I’d get opinions?

Also, any experienced ‘buffet’ers’ who can recommend a good selection of items? We use Tesco and Sainsbury’s and it’ll all be out of boxes as rubbish at cooking and will be short on time

thanks ☺️

I always think home made sausage rolls are delicious and go down well, but I’m Placemarking for ideas!

Also looking for Boxing Day ideas.
So far I thought of roast ham, cheese board, home made sausage rolls (ready made pastry).

Been looking this evening and searched on here for ideas haha!

so far I have different cheeses with crackers
pate
crusty bread
gammon joint
giant pork pie (from the Sainsbury’s food to order)

have a look at the Sainsbury’s FTO lots of good ideas! Anything you don’t eat just have through the week, I always go overboard but better to have too much than not enough .. send people home with doggy bags if needed.
