Line Cooks work in a restaurant performing basic food preparation tasks and assisting the Executive Chef. They typically complete smaller responsibilities like cutting meat, mixing sauces or chopping vegetables. Line Cooks are often assigned a certain task each time they work and will stay in that section of the food preparation line for a majority of their shift. They’re responsible for cleaning their prep station and making sure it’s set up properly before the start of their shift. They’ll also stock the kitchen as needed. Line Cooks must regularly check the food prep and storage areas to ensure they don’t violate any health codes or safety regulations.
