I come to you again...How to reheat 20 lbs of Orange Chicken??

My kid's school is celebrating the Chinese New Year tomorrow. There is a luncheon and parents are bringing food. Since I only have a small wok, and I can only make about a serving for 6 at a time. Also because it is so much work, I am going to make it tonight, put it in the refrigerator, and take it to school tomorrow and reheat it there. I was going to put it in a couple of crock pots and leave them on warm, but I don't want the chicken to get overdone and dry out. So I will probably have it in 2 large aluminum foil containers. How long will it take to reheat it and at what temperature should I do it at?

1. I would reheat it at 350,

but I have no idea how long it would take. Did you post this in Cooking & Baking? That's where the experts hang out.

4. Hint: undercook the chicken.

However, if you do that, make absolutely certain the larger chunks of chicken reach an internal temp of 120�F before serving it to children.
