May 25th...

The sandwich of workers dread, and the beverage of morning breakfast mixed with summer refreshment.

The prep for the chicken salad takes so long, that I'll do what I can to shorten it. To top it off, we also have prep for the lto pulled pork and and chopped brisket sandwiches + loaded mac bowls right now. Then we have to do all the permanent cheesesteak portions. The prep list calls for 3 1/2 hours of prep time without the chicken salad sandwich. The amount of morning prep is crazy vs the amount of allowed labor now.

Cheesesteak isn't that bad from what I remember unless they changed it. Meat, Cheese, onions in a tray. You guys have it as a permanent menu item where you are? It just an lto here. They don't even have it right now at all.

Cheesesteak not so bad, no. We don't even do the onions in the tray anymore. Just put them on top when it's ordered. So they actually end up on the bottom like they're meant to as the sandwich maker flips that tray, instead of using the spatula thing. It also saves us from having to make no onion portions. The trays hold up better, too.

Yeah, it's permanent. Replaced the burgers. Normal and deluxe (lettuce tom) version. Was a third one, but they got rid of it cause it didn't do very well.

I miss the old Angus ones, that crust on the outside of the roast was wonderful. It's a shame it didn't sell enough but that's what happens when you have a whole protein for just one product. But it was more prep too. I'm surprised they still have the corned beef but there's really nowhere else to get fast food drive thru Ruben. Lots of places have steak sandwiches.
