Don’t burn pots. If you fuck it, you unfuck it. Throw some water and baking soda in there snd lift off the worst of it before you send it back.

I’m with the dishwasher on this one. If you burn the fuck out of a pan you better do your best to clean it yourself first before leaving it in dish.

After a year of making all the soups and sauces, any time one of the line cooks burned the soup heating it up I couldn’t help but take it personal. Now I see a pot of burnt soup and I feel unreasonably angry.

Reminds me when I was a dishie for a small diner, it was hands down the worst job I ever had. Besides making me the only person who had to take out all the trash and mop the floors every night, and being the last person to leave which was usually around 2am… they always burned the pots. Every single pot I washed looked similar to the pot above and it drove me insane. I lasted 2 weeks there Lol.

Can’t say that I haven’t done this

Let it soak overnight, scrape it out with a teaspoon. Washed pots for about 3 years in two different kitchens and that worked every time. Some of those cooks were convicts that didn’t give a shit about burning stuff

Relatable. This is what sucks about being a dishie is so often you don’t have a voice because chances are your new.
Being a vet and hoping into dish and finding this was so much easier.
I would find the soup. Look at the label. Saw who made it. Then I would hunt that mfer down and stand over them while they cleaned it. The cook didn’t even try to soak that bitch.

Back when I was a dishie it was basically expected that my line cooks would burn the gravy pot. I had to use a pan scraper just to get the upper layer off or risk ruining a sponge and a precious precious steel wool.
But goddamn I don’t think even a pan scraper could fix that.

If you burn the fuck out of a pot at least have the godamn common courtesy of dumping out as much as will come out and then letting it soak with soap or something. That’s just plain rude. But also I will glady take that if it’s free lol I could have so many activities with a big fucker like that at home

So I’m a sous in a fairly small restaurant and the other sous (there are only 2 of us) consistently does this with grits and yes. Its tiresome to see my PM staff + dishes constantly deal with this kind of thing. I hate the idea of anybody just lazily making anyone’s job harder than it should be and my chef just allows it. No effort into tryna soak it, he doesn’t even touch dishes, and overall doesn’t even clean his stations. All while I get criticized over small shi
