Over cooking steak

We cooked dinner for Cal tonight.  They ordered a massive amount of food and then didn't eat very much of it.  Pretty disappointing putting  all that work in to have it come back.  We save most of it.  We have a service that we donate food too.  So anything, food laws restricting, we save and donate.  We can also give the food to our cafeteria.   We make sure its all food safe and hasn't been touched. And hey they paid for it, so no loss! Go Dawgs!

Tri-tip steak for Cal football players

  • They ordered the steaks well done.  I hate cooking steaks well done, ruins the meat.  AND they didn't even eat it.  SHAME!  Someone will appreciate it, hopefully.

Meat  should always have a close up

  • This is one of our hot boxes, we wrap all the fud and this box holds the food as best you can until it can make it to the client


Asian sauce

Sweet potato mash

  • 10# sweet pots, 1# cream, 1 gallon cream, 1# brown sugar
  • I used brown sugar cause it was going with the molasses demi, tried to layer the flavor a bit
