THE ROLE: Production Cooks make the food. Working from standardized recipes and the day's production list, you batch-cook the meals, soups, and menu items that stock the market, the mobile market, catering, and wholesale accounts. Day shifts build alongside the Production Chef and Production Lead; the evening shift owns the family meal program, the rotating fridge and freezer heat-and-serve meals, and the weekly soup program. Consistency is the job - a customer should always experience the same quality product, no matter who cooked it.
