Number of serves per pound is not the issue. Weights of each roast is the
sticking point for the bean counters. They were unable to get roasts that all
had identical weights and conformation ... which drove them right around the
bend(s).

      Title: Armadillo Eggs
 Categories: Appetisers, Pork, Chilies, Cheese
      Yield: 24 servings
 
     24    Fresh, medium jalapeño
           - peppers
      1 lb Mild pork sausage
      2 c  Bisquick
     16 oz Package shredded cheddar
           - cheese
      1 tb Crushed red pepper flakes
      1 tb Garlic salt
     16 oz Package Monterey Jack
           - cheese; cubed
 
  Preheat oven to 325°F.
  
  Cut a slit down the side of each jalapeño. Remove and discard the
  seeds and as much of the pulp as possible. Trim off the stems. Set
  aside.
  
  Combine the sausage, Bisquick, cheddar cheese, red pepper flakes and
  garlic salt in a large bowl. Mix well.
  
  Insert one or two cubes of the Monterey Jack cheese into each
  jalapeño. Pinch off a portion of the sausage mixture and shape it
  around each jalapeño, covering it completely. Arrange the eggs evenly
  on a greased baking sheet, and bake for 25 minutes until lightly
  browned.
  
  Note: You may want to wear plastic gloves while working with all these
  jalapeños, and don't put your hands anywhere near your eyes.
