    Whenever I have to open one of these buckets it is genuinely the worst part of my shift, i’m weak and brittle and I know this, but it feels like they’re trying to seal away the national treasure with these things

    we get big glass jars instead of buckets 🙁

    We get those Nathan’s horseradish chips and I will eat a half pound a day

    I may or may not be the guy stealing a pickle when I deliver items into your cooler. (I’m very careful to not touch anything besides the single piece of pickle I’m stealing)((put the lid on the bucket if you don’t want me to steal them!!))

    I just discovered infinite pickle lemonade every shift from that bad boy. Pickle cup sides is the prep I always try to get on, even if I have to kill my fingers opening the barrel.

    Ive tried to force myself to like pickles so many times because of how much joy these buckets would bring the other cooks. I just cant do it chef, its not for me.

    You can make pickles for very lil money and very lil effort. I guess it’s not in BOH 101 no moe?

    I used one of those leftover buckets to brew a batch of pilsner once and ended up with what was affectionately dubbed “picklebrau”

    As a lifelong server/bartender/manager turned cook, the real Best part of being BoH is not being FoH.

    Those are the good pickles.

    There’s two bars with really good burgers in town. But you know- the pickles make one better.

    I made some for our special and staff keeps eating them. I’m not mad

  13. We had buckets of pickled cauliflower for our charcuterie boards that were my favorite snack in the world.

    Have you ever tried pickle & cheddar cheese in the same bite? So awesome.

    I used to take the poker stick for moving pizzas in an oven and fold pepperoni with cheese then put it on the stick and melt it in the oven. Pepperoni kabob.

    Just going elbow deep in the pickle bucket to find the lucky end-piece pickle.

    My food cost is always off cause of how many pickles and olives I eat lol

    What’s the brand of pickles. I swear, the ones I get never taste as good as restaurant pickles.

    A few months ago we went out to lunch with family..I noticed one person not eating their pickle. I asked. He said people have such a problem with him not being a pickle person. I laughed and said I had no problem with it. I thought it was great…if I could have his pickle, lol.

    Pickles are good, but heaping handfuls of blueberries crammed skillfully so you don’t smear any juice on your dumb face is my #1 BOH perk

    (back in high-volume kitchens where very large amounts of items are bought and my theft is but a drop in the bucket)

    True story: I had sex on a 5-gallon pickle barrel in the back of a Subway store in Pensacola, FL in 1990. I also got fired two days later, because the store owners caught it all on video. And audio.

    Best reason to get fired EVER.

    Her name was ~~Sonja~~, BTW. She was from Milton.

    sysco once accidentally sent us a five gallon drum of crinkle cut pickle slices. they didn’t charge us, and they didn’t want to come pick it up, so they just said keep it. so for the next year, whenever it was slow, we’d make big piles of panko-breaded fried pickles for the staff. thank you sysco

    When I die I want to be embalmed with pickle juice and buried with pickles in my pockets.
