Is rancho verde style just a super local meme, or is the waterbugurger near my office just pretending like they don't know what it is?

Any criticism of Biden will be reported. You will be banned.

First and last warning. Do NOT impede the healing.

How can a fast food worker be a chef?

>>15284625
I mean let's define the word "chef"

chef
/ʃɛf/
Learn to pronounce
noun
a professional cook, typically the chief cook in a restaurant or hotel.

Is OP a cook? yes
is he professional? well yes he gets paid for it so it's professional

Apex Chef Executive (ACE) at Le Chateau Boomer Si tu l’dis papy

I've worked at multiple whataburgers, they are absolutely pretending they don't know what it is.

>>15284583
Based

I create art at the local mall food court.

>>15286031
What's your mall like? Is it actually busy with real stores or is it mostly kiosks and immigrants suckered into leases selling the cheapest crap they can find?

>>15283869
Repeat after me: "There are no Chefs at Wataburger."

You aren't even a sous chef, nor are you a line cook, you aren't even a pot boy nor are you a proper kitchen porter.

You are a burger flipper. That is all.

>>15284630
Chef means "Chief" As in "Chef de Cuisine" or "Chef de la Table". One heads the kitchen, the other the front of house.

Calling a burger flipper a Chef is an insult to proper Chefs everywhere.

It's like rethinking the definition of "Immigrant" to include everyone who manages to get into a country by any means possible, as opposed to including just those who come with all papers and documents in order to begin a new life.

Illegal aliens are not "Immigrants".
Burger flippers are not "Chefs".

>>15286031
Looks like a decent place to have a decent burger

>>15283869
nice

It’s obvious he’s not as mentally cognizant as he’s been in the past. Not to say he’s impaired from performing the job though. He told those black people who wanted some representation to sit down and shut their mouths if they knew what’s good for them. https://m.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=31&v=QbOT8aBR8pQ&feature=emb_title

>>15286767
We used to keep a can of warmed lard on the back of the stove before the "Health Nazis" came to town. Olive oil for cold dishes, lard for pan frying etc. Tasted better, cooked at a higher temp without smoking and didn't cause systemic inflammation in our customers.

>>15286767
Its mislabeled, it was grapeseed oil. Old habit from another job where canola was used for hot shit.. hot canola oil smells like fish; its gross

>>15287035
You musta paid a heap of money in culinary school and ended up working as some dish washer for that word to be so particularly sensitive to you

>>15286118

Hard projection taking place here.

>>15286748
I've always wondered, why do commercial cooktops have those metal disc things over the burners? Is it just to make it easier to clean or something?

>>15290105
It's a French cook top, or just French top. The rings have different densities so the conduct heat differently. The whole unit is basically one giant variable element. You can pop-out the center plate and use it as a wok station. Cooking directly on the top is possible but it's not used as a flat top since the wear on it would be detrimental to the coating. I don't think they season like a flat top since they're more porous.

>>15290105
Basically what this dude >>15290323 said. Theyre really really wonderful but they get really hot to work over so i never used the left side as anything other than a place for mise and throwing a wire rack onto it to keep stocks or whatever hot from ambient heat from the right side.

Right side on full blast, water for refilling pasta pot and a stack of hot sautee pans makes your life infinitely easier. Its hottest in the middle and gets cooler as you get away from the center which is useful for so many reasons.

>take two pans from bottom of stack, pl ace one in middle of french, one near the edge, replace cold pans on too of stack
>oil in pan, fish skin side down in pan, get initial sear, move to bottom corner of french
>lobster stock in hot pan, carolina gold rice in stock, boiled chestnuts, saffron/pink peppercorn/chili flake compound butter in pan, bring to boil move to range
>next sautee pan down, cold pan on top stack
>oil and butter in pan, gnocchi down, sear, stock in, move rice down and mkve gnocchi to burner
>fish in oven
>two pans on french, replace with cold pans on stsck, dump boiling water into pasta pot, put in hand sink (i know) and refill
>nduja in one pan, oil in the other, fish down in oil, shallots and garlic in rendered nduja, sweat, clams in pan, white wine, cap, move onto range sliding gnocchi down
>oh shit forgot about water refilling, grab that and put back on french
>finish rice
>pull fish from oven, new fish in oven
>finish gnocchi
>take clams out of pan once they pop, stock in pan, move pan next to pasta pot on range, drop pasta
>be starting new shit as youre finishing other shit for five hours clean up go home

So on and so forth. Its really a lot of fun when you have a good system and you can fuckin jam out food at a really rapid pace. Only thing the station needed was a faucet for the pasta pot. I just LIKED it, bros.. getting your actions per minute up is just like vidya

>>15287550
i also hope you call chicken breasts "titties"

>>15286741
lol i don't
my kitchen is designed so retarded, it was a total nepotism job for basically an architect fresh out of college who had a daddy as a member of the club
the walk in is like 100 ft from the kitchen, around the corner and down the hall, by the elevator
the pizza station is separated and open to the dining room, but not easily accessible
it's not designed to make you successful, it's designed to make you look busy, because you're basically all over the place
to give a frame of reference as to the type of place it is, these are the bar stools we have in the dining room, and there are loads of them

I work at Chili's and our grill is basically a pizza oven, it sucks

Did you notice any changes when the Texas senpai sold it to chicago(?) firm?

working in the food industry is the worst shit imaginable unless you're doing meth/adderall and banging one of the servers

>>15290007
How do you even manage which steaks are ready and which steaks are not ready and at the customers preferred doneness?

>>15291346
I worked at a nice restaurant, sir.. we did not sell chicken. I did get chastised for labelling pecorino as “pecker” and i literally laughed in my chef’s face because of the absurdity. She got even more pissed but i explained myself and we came to an understanding.. its weird working in a female dominated kitchen desu; cant tell whether its better or worse than bro central like usual

>>15292641
Jesus christ, dude.. i have no words..

>>15293312
Hes a grill cook at chilis bro. That grill is fucking filthy, you really expect there to be any systems in place?

>>15283869
You mean cook?

>>15293643
i've worked with my fair share of female cooks, and they're just as likely to hold an eggplant in front of their crotch and pretend it's a dick
women cooks are not normal women

>>15294063
Usually, yeah. The kitchen i hopped into was under a chef/owner who was a woman who had hired primarily women in the first iteration of the restaurant so when i got there, “thats what she said” jokes didnt land. Think about that for a moment.. working in a kitchen and nobody says “thats what she said”.. it was a very very effeminate kitchen

>be walking faster than a smaller woman, expect her to get the fuck outta my way cause im bigger and moving faster
>get chastised
>have to walk on eggshells all the time because since somebody is smaller and weaker they OBVIOUSLY get priority on the walk-in/shelf of pans/whatever

It was bullshit desu

>>15287329
Everything he said was logically sound and completely within the realm of speaking the English language properly as opposed to revising it into newspeak like some mongreloid shitskin.
Kill yourself, retarded nigger.

>>15294838
That sounds incredibly cancerous and annoying, I’m assuming the hierarchy of woman were threatened by the dominant male appearing so that’s why they decided to chastise you and degrade you rather than incorporate you to your fullest extent.
There were times when any cook behaving with such indignance would nigh be cast into the ocean.

>>15283869
>chef
sure you are, kid

>>15294063
...or give customers hot dogs their own special marinade.

>>15296548
normally I have to pay extra for this at my local diner

>>15294973
Honestly it was mostly the pastry chefs.. theyre just a different breed. The exec was super hot and very intimidatingly graceful in everything she did and its a very good restaurant.

It was just weird not being able to loudly talk about the bar slut i accidentally came inside of the night before or whatever. I think the beet dynamic is 50/50 because too much either way becomes toxic

>>15296689
Actually i take that back.. the place before that would just be myself and all women BoH some of the days and we would talk about fisting assholes (i didnt believe it could be done, turns out there are quadruple ass fisting vids) and how getting raped by a dude with a small dick is way creepier than getting raped by a guy with a big dick.

A terrifying glimpse into the female psyche.. miss those bitches

>>15286031
thanks you for cutting the stems out of the tomatoes. i swear that is my biggest pet peeve and someday getting a sandwich with tomato butt will be the thing that makes me snap

>>15284599

>>15296713
restaurant workers are the most depraved, disgusting people on the planet. i've worked in more than 20 restaurants and it's the same everywhere, from applbees to 5 star michelin joints

>>15293304
Bump

>>15296734
It is funny how its basically the same people in every kitchen. Both places have james beard awards so everybody is a consummate professional when it comes to the actual work, not showing up drunk or high or being late etc so theres definitely a difference but fundamentally yea, youre right

>>15296548

>Local grocery store deli

>>15297332
Thanks, phone orientation.

Also, how many people have one of these in their kitchen?

>>15297341
I have one in my dungeon.

>>15297352
Post pics of it mutilating a body part pls

>>15297332
looks yummy but they need to be pieced apart

>>15297359
I put the smaller pieces in a few minutes after the breasts and thighs. We sell a lot of the stuff, so separating them isn't a realistic option, but I agree

>>15294838
short people don't belong in a professional kitchen, unless it's a weird cramped one made for hobbits
my cousin is a fairly accomplished chef (that's her actual title, she is a sous chef), but she's the same height as i am.

>>15287329
Go back where, retard?

>>15297341
>>15297352
it looks like it came from a dungeon
my job has one in the banquet kitchens, but i've never used it. luckily, i don't work down there very often - everyone in that kitchen is miserable and an alcoholic

>>15297437
How tall are you bro?

I just cant deal with passive aggressive people. Height isnt such an issue but like obviously if somebody is in a hurry and youre dawdling get the fuck outta the way

I work at a timber mill.

>>15297807
lol handling wood all day, huh? faggot

>>15297817
Do you want me to handle your wood, anon?

>>15297332
I'm surprised how good the fried chicken at my safeway deli is. Then I end up eating the whole 8pc in one day and I want nothing to do with it for a good 6 months.

>>15283869
I cook on one of these, but I'm not walking out on the freezing cold deck and taking a picture of it, then transferring that to my computer and cropping it just to show that I have a little propane powered griddle.
