So how many average sausages can one cook per grandma?

 

An important and intriguing question.

 

Obviously not all Grandma's are of equal mass. Let's say for arguments sake that a Granny weighs 60kg. If we go with Mr openspaceman's calculation of a 3% char yield to wet mass, then Grandma should provide us with around 2.2 kg of charcoal. This is plenty for your average family bbq and should produce enough heat to cook around 12 portions of meat.

I would be most disappointed if my meat ration at a cook up didn't extend to at least 6 sausages, so if we multiply 12 portions by 6 sausages we find that Granny should have enough oomph to cook 72 sausages- give or take a chipolata.

It would be remiss of me not to point out that you will have the best chance of reaching the higher levels of sausage numbers if your Granny was British. As I'm sure you are aware British charcoal burns hotter and longer than charcoal of exotic origin.
