Twelve men, two men per night, once per week



Dinner Cooks must provide the Food Board Manager with a menu – including all ingredients for each element of the meal – for the upcoming meals as dictated by the Food Board Manager in a scheduled cook meeting with their co-cook. Consult with the Food Board Manager on how this will be done. Failure to turn in a menu on time or attend the scheduled cook meeting without excuse will result in a J Board. Each meal must be adequately prepared according to guidelines set by the Food Board Manager. Consult the many cookbooks and recipes we have available in our hall, as well as other halls, or use the Internet.



It is also required that you prepare enough food for those with varied eating habits, such as vegetarians or lactose intolerant residents in our hall. This part of the meal should be made separate from the meat. For example: in stir-fry, fry the vegetables, remove some veggies for the vegetarians, and then add chicken to mix for the rest of the hall. Twenty-four hours before you are scheduled to cook, look through the pantry and various fridges to make sure that you have all the required ingredients for your next meal. Any frozen foods such as meat take out of the freezer and place in a pot of cold water and put it into the refrigerator the day before so it is thawed by cooking time. If you are missing certain ingredients notify the Food Board Manager, SHD or Proctor as soon as possible before you are scheduled to cook. If you fail to give a notice, you will be responsible for the missing ingredient.
