A fast growing local brewpub is looking for an inspired, self-starting cook who manages time well in and out of a rush. We want to work with a positive, forward thinking food lover who can push our limited kitchen equipment in amazing new directions. Kalihi Beer runs a “cold kitchen” with limited equipment that we currently use to make high quality hot sandwiches and light appetizers. We’re looking for someone with a passion for heavy pupus and ono grinds that can make it work without a grill or a fryer.
The kitchen is equipped with a panini press, a small hot plate style grill and an impingement oven. We’ve got a 20 cup rice maker, crock pots, and a turkey roaster. We additionally use a propane fired flat grill outside on weekends for our smash burgers. We have choke refrigeration and freezer space.
We are looking for someone who can make magic within these limitations. Sandwiches and burritos are our go to, but we’re looking to move into musubi’s, salads, and….? What do you bring to the mix?
You should first and foremost have a passion for not just cooking, but creating. We are passionate and creative in our approach to making our beer, and we need a cook who can match that enthusiasm in our food program. You need to be familiar with inventory systems, ordering, unit cost analysis, and the magic trick of turning limited ingredients into diverse menu options.
We work in a team environment with excellent communication and a mutual pride in the work we do.
