Mr Crab House

Job Description

Job Description

Are you a disciplined "prepper" who thrives on organization and speed? We are looking for a reliable  Prep Cook with at least  one year of experience to join our back-of-house team.

This isn't just a role where you’ll be chopping onions forever. We believe in rewarding talent. If you master your station and show leadership, we offer a structured  performance-based promotion path to Line Cook and beyond.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Station Setup: Prepare the kitchen for service by washing, peeling, cutting, and portioning ingredients (vegetables, proteins, and sauces).
  • Recipe Execution: Follow standardized recipes and yield guides to ensure consistency and quality.
  • Kitchen Safety: Maintain a clean and sanitized workstation, following all food safety and health department regulations.
  • Inventory Support: Assist in receiving deliveries, rotating stock (FIFO), and notifying the Chef of low inventory.

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience: At least 1 year of professional kitchen experience (high-volume preferred).
  • Knife Skills: Proficiency with various cuts and a high regard for tool maintenance.
  • Stamina: Ability to stand for long periods and lift up to 50 lbs.
  • Mindset: A "no-task-is-too-small" attitude and the ability to work effectively under pressure.

The "Performance-Based" Promise

We don't wait for annual reviews to recognize hard work. We promote based on  merit, not just tenure.

  • Clear Milestones: We provide a roadmap of skills you need to master to move to the next level.
  • Frequent Check-ins: Monthly performance chats to see where you are and how we can get you to the next step.
  • Wage Increases: Promotions come with immediate, pre-defined pay bumps.

Perks & Benefits

  • Competitive hourly pay + tips.
  • Free shift meals.
  • Flexible scheduling.
  • A team culture that values respect and direct communication.

Ready to level up your culinary career?
