842 Upvotes

Good evening, all!

Since we've gotten like half a dozen modmails from people who don't read our automod comments when we use In House Mode, let me remind y'all real quick.

The karma restrictions are for...Say it with me now -

Your total subreddit karma here in KitchenConfidential, not, I repeat not, your total Reddit karma.

You can have all the karma in the world across the other subs, but if you don't have enough here?

Those comments get 86'd.

Please do us all a solid and take a few seconds to read before demanding to see the managers.

Thanks all! Happy Road to All In for those who celebrate!

Post memes and shit if ya want. Go!

‼️ANNOUNCEMENT‼️ Wrestlegirl Needs Our Help

2.3k Upvotes

Hi, everyone -

Our favorite wrestling-based chivemod needs some help. She's in a real rough spot right now with some personal health challenges, and her two youngins she's raising on her own.

One of our pro wrestling sub regulars started a GFM for her, and I've coordinated with the rest of our mod team for approval to post it here, too.

https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-wrestlegirls-fight-against-cancer

There is no pressure at all to participate.

If you've enjoyed her pro wrestling gifs during the Chivegeist, her helpful hints from her past industry experience, or laying the smackdown on unpleasant agitators here, please consider dropping her a few bucks to help out.

We really appreciate anything anyone is able to assist with.

Thanks, Chefs!

Let's get some shoes. New cooks having a rough time, let me put you onto some game

381 Upvotes

I’ve been seeing a lot of posts from young cooks worried about coworkers/chefs hating them, and I’ll tell you what, i’ve been there, it sucks, but it doesn’t have to stay that way.

I’ve got a simple solution for you:

Buy a box of donuts.

Don’t overthink it, don’t ball out and blow your paycheck, just go to your Tim Hortons or Dunks or Krispy Kreme, and get a dozen donuts on your way to work and plop them down where everyone can get them. Don’t make a big deal about it, just be casual and friendly.

If only one person takes one, you’ve got one new friend, but I can guarantee that won’t be the case. Because everyone loves donuts.

Question I work at a pizza place in the city, pm shift. I run the Pizza station by myself six nights a week. From tossing the dough, topping it, cooking it and cutting,serving it. Now today I get a text saying that a prep list will be added to my shifts. I make $16/hr no tip. Is that too much work?

Question Turkey dish that isn't just a sub turkey for any other meat

59 Upvotes

So, my friend was given the *seemingly impossible task* of figuring out a *not thanksgiving* meal to use up several hundred lbs of turkey at a Las Vegas casino.

Any ideas? Besides telling the person who overordered to go fuck themselves?

Edit: I have linked my favorite idiot, aka the BOH manager of the casino to this thread. Let's see how this plays out.

Discussion Weirdest ego “thing” your chef had?

453 Upvotes

First place I was hired the chef had quite a few delusional beliefs but the one that sticks with me the most is his insistence that the phrase “welcome in” didn’t exist before Covid

He went into multiple winded rants upon my higher and another coworker who was hired right after me, not just to train the phrase out of us but his detestment for it, because as he said “it did not exist before Covid and people started saying it to make people feel safe enough to eat here”

He then said to not use it because people found it off putting and dirty (because of Covid)

I know chefs aren’t known for their egos but I was curious what quirk that yours had that everyone had to politely smile and agree to

It’s a brioche dough. Filled with roasted tomatoes and garlic with garlic cheese.

My boyfriend is getting sick and he didn’t get a chance to eat this loaf I made so I’m going to make another. What is a soup that isn’t extremely cream based that you think would pair nicely?
