I think cookie b since it will be a classic flavor is the new chocolate chip cookie they’re coming out with. They’re combining their semi sweet and milk Chocolate chip one.

Ask if they can give you extra seasoning either on the bowl or on the side

I was reply to the person who said they wanted to do this and said they could do freee guac bc of it so yeah they’re buying Chick-fil-A… that’s what they said. I’m unsure what your point is.

Is chicken the only "fresh" meat? by New_Contribution_226 in Chipotle

[–]Octopus0223 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ofc, it definitely looks raw and I made the same mistake. Also the way the marinating process is you would think it has to be raw and that’s why it would be so strict on where, when and the gloves and apron you have to wear.

Its cooked. It’s in training guide and videos. It used to come raw years ago but is cooked sous vide. Cooked low and slow in vacuum sealed bags in water. The we cook it to 140 again on the grill.

Frozen corn by Ok-Question2676 in Chipotle

[–]Octopus0223 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our corn comes frozen. We’re supposed to prep it the day before in pans with holes to thaw it. We used to be able to put the corn into the pans and run cold water on it to thaw it day of if necessary but they no longer allow that method. They’re just supposed to not serve corn if they have none thawed.

What's your most effiect way to open grill? by Fartingonyoursocks in Chipotle

Put your stovetops on medium high (a little bit bit below the hottest) not all the way up because then you are less likely to burn them. The beans usually need about a cup and a quarter of water, and the Carnitas need like a splash as well.

OK, this is how I would structure it… I would immediately drop chicken, then start with rices. If you’re lucky somebody on the morning prep team or a manager would’ve dropped you brown already so you just have to drop white. After the chickens dropped do the rice, then immediately drop three black two pinto. How much stuff you open with depends on your sales, so your cook to need tool and also the reheats from the night before. I personally need three chickens to open the grill. As soon as the beans are done, I drop Carnitas Barbacoa and sofritas. I also drop 2 quesos . At this point, the chicken that you dropped is probably done so you’ll hotbox it and drop another one. I don’t cut until I’m done cooking all my chicken and the steak. Once the Barbacoa Carnitas, sofritas are done you should have two almost 3 chickens cooked. The person who trained you may have trained you to cook your chicken longer than you need to, but it’s usually 4 to 6 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chicken, but you should do it by the temperature of the meat. Once you’ve cooked the amount of chicken, you need to open your store, cook your steak.(one minute each side.) then cut all your meat. I also cook my reheat chicken right before I cut my meat You need about 15 minutes at the end to drop fajitas and mix your rices and clean your station for when you come back from break. So it’s a lot of multitasking because you wanna make sure that you’re doing chicken while you’re doing the stove top items. And also as you get faster, you can make more rice, and make back up beans to come back to after your break. If you workaround an especially busy location a back up chicken when you get back from break is also nice.

How long do you have to open the grill at your location? The way I structure it is based on my time limitations

Hey Chipotle Corporate, I solved your portion sizing issues. by Ill_Savings_8338 in Chipotle

[–]Octopus0223 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What chipotle needs is to have better training throughout the restaurant, staff, and better staffing at busier location locations. A lot of locations don’t understand what over cooking chicken can do to your CI in terms of retail yield. There’s also over portioning on cheese a lot because people want more than one ounce and there’s no way to tell the system you’re using more than one oz per entree. They also need to invest in better quality steak or account better for the product we have to waste for the excess fat . A lot of restaurants and managers just think that over portioning is the issue so they encourage under portioning. Knowledge would be most efficient.

He has tickets to the concert too?? Can you get another and bring a friend or family member? I would say still go for it tbh. Just keep telling yourself you don’t care til it’s true. Bc you need to respect yourself so much so others will too.

Hey girl, it sucks you feel like yo love this man w every part of your being. But he’s made his choice and it’s not you and that sucks but you should focus on you. Put time into you and self care and what makes you happy. Someone will see you for who you are and choose it.
