Sous Chef Live Fire / BBQ Program

Were looking for a hands-on Sous Chef who understands fire, respects the craft, and takes pride in doing things the right way. This role is about being in the kitchen — working the line, managing the smoke, breaking down proteins, and helping build something that lasts.

What You'll Do:

  • Support and help lead day-to-day kitchen operations.
  • Work live fire: smokers, grills, wood/coal management, temp control.
  • Break down whole proteins (brisket, pork, poultry, etc.).
  • Execute and refine BBQ techniques (low & slow, hot & fast).
  • Help develop sauces, rubs, and menu items.
  • Lead prep and service with consistency and attention to detail.
  • Train and support the team while maintaining standards.
  • Assist with inventory, pars, and ordering.
  • Keep a clean, organized, and efficient kitchen.


What You Bring:

  • Experience with live fire cooking and BBQ fundamentals.
  • Strong skills in butchery and protein handling.
  • Understanding of sauces, marinades, and flavor building.
  • Ability to handle volume while maintaining quality.
  • Organized, reliable, and detail-oriented.
  • Basic understanding of food cost, yield, and kitchen systems.


Who You Are:

  • Hardworking with a positive, team-first attitude.
  • Leads by example and communicates clearly.
  • Takes pride in the craft and the final product.
  • Stays calm and focused during busy service.
  • Open to learning, growing, and contributing ideas.
  • Wants to be part of building and evolving a strong kitchen.


What You'll Get:

  • Opportunity to help shape and grow the menu.
  • Clear path for growth into a larger leadership role.
  • A kitchen built on respect, culture, and craft.
  • Competitive pay based on experience.


Expectations:

  • Full commitment during peak hours, weekends, and holidays.
  • Willingness to put in the work as we build and grow.
