I find chicken fat to be pretty tasty. Crispy Chicken skin is also very good. The meat itself is less flavorful and nutritious than beef, but if flavor and nutrients are all that matters, we should just eat elk steaks and calf liver as our only food

not defending Bordain or anything. he was for sure full of shit about 50% of the time.

this is no exception. their is all sorts of chicken-centric stuff he is leaving about but there is a nugget of truth here.

it is for sure a common menu planning convention to use "low cost" dishes to pad food cost totals. and this is usually chicken, or totally meatless stuff. the idea is there is always someone who wants to order something simple and cheap. so while the rest of the table is ordering 40 dollar steaks and 30 dollar seafood items, the guy that orders the 19 dollar chicken is actually getting the worst value in terms of food cost/menu cost. its a real thing. most common culprits are:

some kind of chicken pasta.
cesar salad with chicken breast.
grilled chicken with an easy to hold mass produced pour over sauce.

alot of times a a 30 dollar steak dinner is made with a 10-12 dollar steak, plus a few dollars with of side/ acquirement
while the boring chicken item is half the menu cost but literally uses 3 dollars of ingredients. so the steak might be a 100% markup but the chicken is more like 400%.

[Anonymous No.17230523]

>>17230398
this has a lot of variability, but typically the head chef is responsible for managing the menu and the food costs and ownership/management will do thinks like set targets and incentives. like the chef might get a bonus based on hitting food cost goals and kitchen labor goals. so management sets the goal and the chef has to figure out how to meet it.

this kind of thing is necessary because if you let the chef make all the menu design decisions unchecked food and labor costs will soar. and if management/ownership (assuming a non-chef owner) make all the decisions about the menu it tends to be profitable but uninspired.

tl:dr the head chef is usually chiefly responsible for the menu item, with some general guidance /approval from management.

So basically it boils down to the easiest way to save money/jack up the price and since people tend to order boring chicken dishes at a higher cost without question, that is what is generally included on the menu? If so, I get what he was saying but the quote is taken out of context. Chicken isn't inherently a boring choice but it is made so out of necessity.

It purely depends on the dish. Beef quality has a lot more variance than chicken. If I am ordering something like a burrito, I will get the chicken which I know won't be a leathery piece of shit that I'll have to tear out of each bite. If I know quality is good, obviously a steak is king, but I've had some phenomenal half chickens at restaurants, with every inch of the skin charred and caramelized with a beautiful bbq sauce.

Chicken is often similar to tofu in that it is a meat canvas for the rest of the dish to sit on. Too busy of a steak dish is just a waste of good steak, but chicken is a nice meaty, juicy platform for delicious fillings, breadings, sauces, etc.

It's an absolute, people shouldn't talk in absolutes but generally speaking yes, a lot of dishes with chicken are boring, because that's what people expect from it, they just want something nice and "boring" when they order chicken it doesn't have to be but often that's just how chicken is portrayed.

Yeah that's the long and short of it. It's not just about jacking the price though. It's usually a kind of balancing act. You have a target food cost but to stay popular you need to have good shit. Things that use higher priced commodities tend to have higher total food costs so you can recoup some of those costs with low- cost items like chicken or salads. Chicken is cheap and it's a go to for the less adventurous diner. I have even heard chefs say shit like " if someone is going to cheap out on their order I will at least make a good margin on him"

I have seen beer bars do the same thing. Some place has 75 craft beers on tap that are 6 to 8 bucks each but there is always that guy that will only drink bud light. So fine. Here us your 6 dollar bud light.

Chicken is less expensive

[Anonymous No.17236887]

This is true of most meats nowadays though, being boring I mean. I raise my own chickens for eggs, but when it's time for them to go, I eat them. The taste of a mature hen that's had time to pasture and peck around at bugs and all is amazing. Yes, you need to either shred the breast or use low and slow methods on the thighs, unless you want to chew a lot, but not everything is meant to be seared on a pan quickly and then it's done. Some people like it, I've had others say it tastes "weird" and "too strong", as in they don't actually like the taste of chicken itself. Same form pigs. I know a guy who raises his own pigs in the open and holy shit are they delicious. The color and taste are actually mind-bogglingly different compares to supermarket pork. Not as dark and gamey as the wild hogs I bag sometimes, but much more flavorful than the stuff in styrofoam. Again, some people don't like it, since they don't actually like the taste of pork. Beef is in a slightly better state but even then, I can still tell how they're slowly trying to make it blander and blander by altering the diets and the way it's raised, because some people actually like that. Feed it a such corn as possible to make it "mellow", aka taste less like beef. Miss me with that shit.

No. You can buy low quality frankenstein chicken, which is most of what you can buy from supermarkets, and have a bad experience with that. But it's hard to fuck up proper free range chicken unless you burn it dry and fuck up with spices. Even a plain salt and peppered chicken breast can be really good when cooked correctly.

[Anonymous No.17236910]

Most people who complain about the taste of pork just buy the cheapest shit from supermarkets. Stressed out pigs that has been slaughtered and contaminated the meat with their hormones.
Pork from farm raised free ranging pigs is a whole other world.

was about to say this. if the chicken's been smoked or stewed for four hours I'll consider it. doesn't matter what the ingredients are worth if you don't have the equipment/patience to do it yourself.

He also notoriously loved KFC. People say contradictory shit all the time, it's best to ignore it, otherwise you'll just fill your head with garbage. Also context is extremely important.
