So Paul Bocuse died. I'm honestly surprised a chef lived to 91.

Just because they're old doesn't mean it's okay for them to be any of those things. Being racist, sexist, or homophobic made you a bad person then, and it makes you a bad person now. Some things do transcend generations.

The internet in my town went down in the middle of our breakfast rush, killing our ability to process credit cards. Being a little diner we have no system in place to handle credit card payments offline. I haven't drank this much whiskey in a long time.

Long story short, I bragged about my mad pickle making skills and now after trying them my KM is ready to tell US Foods "gently caress you, there's a new pickle in town" and I'm gonna be making our pickles in-house. I've got full rein of "just let me know what you need, and I'll order it". Problem is, I have no loving idea how to scale this up. Can anyone here tell me approximately how many pounds, or cases, or whatever of Kirby cukes it takes to fill a 5 gallon bucket? When they're sliced?

A lot of newer credit cards don't push the numbers out enough to work on one of those now. The fancy Chase ones have the numbers slightly embossed, I haven't had to try it, but I don't think they would work on those and I also regularly see ones where the numbers are just printed on the side.

Rugikiki posted:We get fifteen pound cases, those almost fill a 22qt Cambro. Thank you! Is that raw cukes, and what kind? My biggest blindspot as a cook is that I absolutely suck at estimating sizes. Happens in all aspects of my life; if I see a highway sign saying RIGHT LANES CLOSES 1000 FT, I have no loving clue what 1000 ft is. In the kitchen I'm good with eyeballing small measures up to like 2 cups, but past that? Pyrex and scales are my friends.

They’re pickling cucumbers, beyond that I’m not positive. They look like all the top results for Kirby cukes on GIS, though. E: and yes, they’re raw.

I can say that in my latest gig doing mostly short-order fry stuff: I have gained an incredible sense of time from one to four minutes. I'll drop catfish in the fryer, go do something else, and just before the timer goes off I get wavy lines above my head like Spider-man, look over, and it's 3 seconds left. Much of my waking day is now spent in 4 or less minute increments. If I ever develop Korsakoff's syndrome from all my drinking, I'm still good to go as a fry cook. Still can't estimate how many quart containers I need to portion out catfish, though.
