You are getting braised my friend. I’ve eaten steaks at lower temps.
SuperDoubleDecker
Placement matters. You ain’t working in a kitchen at that temp. You’d be dead.

Not nearly as bad but I tried to get unemployment from a pizza place I was forced to quit for it being over 115 consistently in the summer – they just lied their way out of it and I never got unemployment.

Your boss must keep the heat on year round like mine

Let me guess, this is the same place that wonāt allow towels in the freezer
I’m not sure exactly why this subreddit started showing up for me – I’ve never worked in a kitchen.
But this, and trying to work in tight, cramped spaces, are pretty much the two reasons why I never pursued a career in food service.

No way. That’s too hot to live. There’s something wrong there.

But itās a dry heat.

In my country anything above 113 is considered “hazardous working conditions” in my country… Anything above 95 requires the employer to provide ways for employees to cool down…

Dude! That is awful! I work deck ovens at work and guys keep turning off the AC. Locked them out today of the system today.

Bro I had to work in a kitchen during Sacramento’s last heat wave when it was 115 and our AC died.
Temps inside were 120 just holding out the meat thermometer in the middle of the kitchen.
I feel you.
Get a bowl of ice water and dunk a towel in it then put it on the back of your neck.
Repeat ad infinitum.

Just keep slathering on the BBQ sauce, you’ll be tender in a bit.

Jeez, Iām reading some WWII history and the author was talking about the unspeakable inhumane hot conditions in the engine rooms of ships in the Pacific. They didnāt get as hot as your kitchen.

If you leave chicken out at 136 degrees for 63.3 minutes it will be pasteurizedā¦

Is this the ambient temp or just over the fryer or grill?

As navy veteran, that is hotter than the flight deck of an air craft carrier, in the middle east, during the summer, during flight operations. Report that shit to your state’s labor department now.

May be a dry heat but you’ll still be jerky in a few days.
SweetTea07
Damn! We got to 36Ā°C the other day where I am but that’s next level! I’ve had steaks at lower temps than that!

Since nobody has mentioned this yet and at least a few people seem to have missed it, thermpro is a meat thermometer brand.
Great joke though.

139 is the hottest Iāve seen in my kitchen, and we were having 45 min ticket times because even with 15 on the line 15 off the line rotations we couldnāt read the tickets anymore. We had a guy collapse, into the freezer with a bucket of water thrown on him. Thatās when the manager 86d the menu and we shut down for the day. The customers were pissed. The manager made the announcement to the dining room by saying ā Iām sorry but Iām not going to have another cook collapse today sorry but we are now closing.ā Two weeks later the owners were getting an entire new hvac system and now the kitchen doesnāt break 90.
