From guest count to shopping list
Plan portions around the food you will actually cook.
Choose the people, appetite, event length and menu. Barbecue Planner accounts for product-specific cooking loss, bones, sides and your reserve instead of relying on one rough grams-per-person rule.
What it does
The whole barbecue, calculated and packed.
Guests, appetite and time
Count adults and children, adjust appetite and event duration, and set a reserve from 0 to 30 percent.
Real cooking yields
Estimate raw shopping weight with product-specific satiety, cooking loss, bone and trim yields — including ten pork, beef and lamb rib cuts.
Meat, sides and mixed grill
Plan bone-in cuts and sides, get a vegetable recommendation, or use a balanced mixed grill split across meat, vegetables and mushrooms.
Private on-device planner
Ask Apple’s on-device model for planning ideas when available. A deterministic multilingual planner works without it and no remote AI service is used.
A packing list that remembers
Check off food, grill gear, serving items, comfort, safety and cleanup. Add your own items and keep progress locally on the device.
A plan ready to share
Share a localized plain-text shopping and packing plan through the iOS share sheet. Nothing is sent automatically.
A simple flow
Count. Choose. Pack.
Add your guests
Enter adults and children, then choose appetite, event length and a safety reserve.
Build the menu
Choose the products, rib cut, sides or mixed grill and review the suggested raw shopping amounts.
Shop and pack
Use the built-in checklist, add anything unique to your day and share the final plan when you want.
