    Great plan and tips.I graduated ICE in NYC in 2009 and worked at The Palm on 2nd ave. I cater parties and functions pretty often.This chef broke it down and was very informative.Along with safety tips,especially with the mandolin.Good job! Now where's the leftover wine and vodka from those sauces!? lol

      Please comment on my 12 year old. Your $300 per person price is very interesting to me and my daughter might be underselling her services for all of the training that she has. She wants to start out charging $50 per person to capture the market share.

    i lile the trick with the sheet pan and burgers.i wanted to know if ur putting anything in ur burher if u arent.i would imagine cutting the loaf or forming a loaf it it comes in a bag (ground beef).
    and then pressing and forming would be faster im not a fan off scooping them.but i will tell u ur videos are very clear and informative.and i will be showing this to my chefs.100% i tell them all the time dont put down the knife until its necessary

    Hey great video but i must agree with the wash your hands comments. As a experience chef you should always take sanitation in to account. I watched you rub your face then cut that bread right after.This is not a bashing session because im actually here to learn from you. Just take into account you posted this via internet to the world and many of us actually care about the food handling and sanitation. GOD BLESS SSG ALBERT US ARMY INFANTRY

    My 12 year old has been professionally trained since she was 6 by a very well esteemed chef, and she now wants to start her own catering business. She is an elite chef but I will be putting restrictions on how many people she may cater for per month. I would like to know what to expect for a reasonable restriction for her. Right now I am saying that she can cater for 200 people a month, only on 2 weekends a month. She swears that she can do more and I've seen her do a lot of people at one time on a few occasions. The most was about 130 people during a wedding for her aunt last year. I'm concerned with prep time taking away from her studies. So someone please give me a reasonable expectation with prep time for my 12 year old super chef.

    You have to keep hot food hot and cold food cold to stay in the safe zone...I understand the pre cook option but you are partially cooking. How do you keep your food in the 'safe zone' @marcusburic ? I can cook for under 20 no problem...I'm trying to learn for larger crowds. I love my mandolin! It comes with a safety guard so my hand doesn't come near the blade.

    Chef! What about doing roasted prime ribs/flank steaks? Do you do them on the day itself? Also, if i intend to only serve half of it first before topping up the next half, how do i do that without my second half of the meat getting cold?

    • @jayfarrock
      @jayfarrock 8 лет назад

      i would grill the prime rib just to mark them then shingle on a sheet pan you should get 18 pieces per rib....this cna be done a day before then when you serve heat in oven untill desired doneness...

    Two things that kind of scratched me. One, you keep your sauces and soups for THREE DAYS? Is that in compliance with the sanitary rules? And the second thing is, it takes you a WEEK to prepare a dinner for 150 people? And you take a whole DAY to "study the menu"? Isn't that a bit... slow?

      It is absolutely in compliance with all states/Federal health and sanitation safety standards.It is common practice well within the guidelines of every menu I have created,worked with and under.3 days is also the suggested hold time under standard operating procedures.As Chef states,many sauces and soups "marry" flavors more and provide a deeper depth and better texture after a day.If we consider the ingredients that go into what we are making as well as the freshness quality source and cooking method it's much easier to determine the shelf life of what you intend to prepare.I hope this helps you feel better about things.I know when I first started ina kitchen I had a lot of suspicions 😂 but MOST kitchen are abiding by these rules and very seldom does anything ever grt by us and if it does it NEVER makes it to the table.If it does sue the shit out of them and call the health department immediately.

    • @TylerL-zx5qt
      @TylerL-zx5qt 2 месяца назад

      @@Maloy7800 In regards to studying the menu and the time frame it takes to complete the event we have to consider sourcing the ingredients as well as cooking methods (smoking some cuts of meat can take up to 14 hrs).If your only able to source from supply companies such as Sysco you must have the order in 2 days prior to receiving it and you may only have one truck maybe 2 in a weeks timespan.Then we have to organize the work load across various shifts to coordinate not only the catering but regular business as well.Without knowing in detail every component of each dish it is easy to miss one crucial component for an entire dish or even under/over order on things you need.Another possibly is that it is currently out of stock and we must adjust there.Giving yourself a week to achieve every aspect of the goal is vital and without giving yourself enough mental and physical preparation,even if it goes off without a hitch how many times can you repeat the same level of quantity and quality before burning out or making a gross error?
