Summary of Duties and Responsibilities
Our Prep Cooks pride themselves on all the good food that goes to the steam table and counter, such as our famous pastrami, Ben’s cured corned beef and tongue, soups and salads. We want our food to be consistent in taste from one Ben’s location to the next, so our specialties are made from recipes that have been perfected over the years. Washing, slicing and mixing of ingredients as well as washing the pots are all part of the job. It goes without saying, but we say it anyway, maintaining a sanitary kitchen to the highest standards is a must.
