Christmas banquet pics:
1. The convection ovens are loaded for Bear. Sliced turkey roast in the top. Buttered corn and Sausage stuffing in the bottom. Chef standing in front of ovens.
2. Rolls fresh from the oven and food staged on the flattop for service. (Multiple pans of food were also staged in the steamtable under this pass and in the lower shut off convection oven)
3. The line is ready for service. Notice the beautiful lady in the red shirt. (Yes she's my wife, but still...)
4. The leftovers, not too much but at least we didn't run out of food. (Check out the Vintage Hobart slicer) It kicked ass on those turkey roasts. There were L/O mashed taters but they were already re-panned for cooling and in the walk-in at this time.
5. Clean-up underway, GO HOBART!
I had an awesome time and felt honored to be Head Chef of this Banquet and would do it again in a heartbeat. It made my day to hear the sincere gratitude from the guys for what we did and to know they loved the food. Not to sound arrogant (as I was humbled by these men's kindness and gratitude)but it was nice to be told many times that my food was outstanding, amazing, just like my Mom/Grandma used to make, very good and excellent.
Merry Christmas

I went to the home of my oldest nephew, his wife, and their three children, who live about 25 miles from here. My sister and her husband were also there.
I stopped by to drop something off on Christmas Eve, and they asked if I wanted to stay to eat. It was warm out, so they cooked steaks on the grill. I went back over Christmas day for lunch, and we had ham, twice baked potatoes, salad, rolls and cookies. Everything was good. Ended up staying until about 4:30 or so, then came home.
