- Support delivery operations, including proper packaging, portioning, and quality control for off-site orders
- Assist with inventory management and prep list planning
Work evening/night shifts (4 PM 12 AM) and support peak dinner service.

- Experience in American BBQ (smoking, grilling, slow-cooking) strongly preferred
