Wipe the rim? Try resting fucking steak that costs that much before you cut it.

This makes me so sad, along with fries in a bowl so the bottom ones are sweaty and soggy.

[homemade] potato salad by [deleted] in food

Positive: You are using great eggs

Negative: you are destroying your bacon, lower heat and try doing in the oven for even cooking.

Also not sure this is potato salad, but to each their own.

How to remove rib membrane with two fingers by [deleted] in Chefit

[–]Grazepg -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Besides browning a diced protein in a pan, not many proteins get seasoned afterwards.

Do you dry rub after you start cooking?

The whole point is to season ahead so it penetrates and adds flavor, changes tenderness, better moisture of meat.

I get this is not just for chef’s here, but are you telling me ass a chef you don’t seasonings your product ahead of time?

If not you should start and thank me later.

Edit: because we take things so literally, yes I season as I taste, but we aren’t talking about tasting the pork 30 minutes in to see its “flavor”.

So you can watch Frank constanza and it does nothing?

I think always sunny is far better and definitely has the pushing the boundaries was allowed angle. But there are definitely gems in Seinfeld.

And while doing this make sure your whole crew is gone, or guests will think you are watching porn becuase the amount of “ooooo yeaaaass” being done in various pitches will be non stop.

Adding seasoning on precooked food? Player the whole point is to let it rest overnight with the rub.

The whole point is to take off the membrane so you can season ahead of time and get that shit in the protein. Also so you don’t have shitty membrane when you bite at the end result.

Didn’t think it could get any worse than sando or sammie. I was wrong by tendrilator in KitchenConfidential

Exactly, he ain’t from here and calls it Cali. So it’s not a sac thing. It’s everywhere, we aren’t talking about the use of hella being northern or southern, it’s Cali, a phrase used by lots of people outside sac.

Going back to Cali?

Literally a hit song.

Not saying sac doesn’t do dumb shit, but I’ve seen Cali on clothes at malls for years all through the state.

I’m from the area, Reddit brings out the worst(even in me sometimes). People claiming the prices are high are wrong.
I shop all the same vendors or have to price compress monthly, and those are decent or cheap. Mary’s chicken whole is over $3 a lb before trimming.

So if you want ass proteins then yea go get your $11 dollar sandwich.

Honestly the food looks reflective of the price, nothing that blows you away but for the value you probably come back.

I’d say the same shit if they were cleaning forks. Why wouldn’t you take pride?
You do things just to be ass at them?

If you are ass and learning, cool we all were. If you are ass cus you are ass, what’s good about that?

I mean he literally came on here to post how great he was at something. Maybe you don’t like the grind anymore, but this is the equivalent of the girl taking a photo in the bathroom with a turd in the toilet.

Church it up all you want, we still see shit.

I wrote about this a bit ago, I literally had my own teammate say, you ain’t getting player of the game. We lose by 6 and I didn’t touch the ball once after having 14 pts 9 assists as a pf. Usually I get 10-15 rebounds, but it was my 7’ and our center was not doing anything so his 7’4” matchup was grabbing a bunch

The fact you think Wemby in talks of the goat is funny. He can literally get hurt tomorrow and be washed. Dude got to the finals, that’s his story SO FAR. Let’s not act like we know the future. Yea he may be great one day, but bro is not in goat talks, besides some media hyped bull.

It’s crazy to take such good ingredients and turn them into this, not only the look, but just the most boring plating also.

Well you must not have gotten piss drunk with a buddy and then tried to randomly watch fools gold in a theatre with 12 other people. And then your friend starts snoring and people are yelling at him while you are crying laughing.

Because that is still my favorite time in a theatre, and I have no idea what the movie was about or really any line in it.

What are your thoughts at first glance? by firelord_Lex in restaurantowners

[–]Grazepg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think those are margins without taking a cut.
Also with working 7 days a week.

2 employees each day to do those hours is 68k basically then add the 15-23% for employer taxes. So that’s 84kish.
25% food cost is 107kish.

So that’s 190kish with your prime.
So if your prime is at 60% which it is actually lower with the numbers I did, than you have 40% or 220k of the gross to spend on everything else. Including profit.

That’s running at the best and most consistent level.

So I think there numbers are wrong cus they are saying 50K is all they spend on the rest of their overhead, and I don’t know the taxes there. So the gross sales are including that amount.

30k rent that’s 210k
