Generally speaking you should plan for 1.25 pounds of turkey per person. That means that you would need a 10 pound turkey, however if you want some leftovers I would get a 12-14 pounder, depending on how many leftovers you want.

A 4 pound turkey breast works nicely for two....And you should get a few days worth of sandwiches out of it.

17 to 20 lbs. should be good enough but you can ask the person in the meats but you should be getting it soon. We have a great ucrops near us and it is so nice they cook it for you and we pick it up every year it is the best. They must cook it in gravy or something

you will need about 18-20 pounds if you want left overs.
