Kitchen Chef – My Father’s Barbeque (Carson, CA)
Bring Your Flavor. Perfect Your Craft.
At My Father’s Barbeque Smokehouse, we live where Southern tradition meets California soul. Our kitchen runs on real smoke, bold flavor, and teamwork. We’re looking for a Kitchen Chef — a skilled, passionate cook ready to bring creativity to the line and consistency to every plate.
This role is for the chef who wants to cook, not manage — someone who can take direction from the Head Chef, execute with precision, and still add their own creative spark to the menu.
What You’ll Do:
• Cook and plate dishes that meet the high standards of our smokehouse
• Master the craft of BBQ: brisket, ribs, smoked chicken, and scratch-made sides
• Work closely with the Head Chef to bring recipes and specials to life
• Keep your station organized, clean, and running tight during peak hours
• Maintain food quality, temperature, and presentation consistency
• Support a strong team culture — focused, fast, and flavor-driven
Who You Are:
• 2–4 years of real kitchen experience (BBQ, grill, or soul food a plus)
• Serious about your craft — you can really cook, not just “get by”
• Creative but disciplined — understands the art and the process
• Thrives in a fast-paced, family-style kitchen
• Follows direction well but has ideas worth sharing
• Reliable, clean, and takes pride in your work every shift
What You’ll Get:
• $22–$25/hr based on skill + tip share
• Growth path to Sous Chef or R&D roles as the brand expands
• Health benefits and 401(k) after probation period
• Real creative input in new dishes and menu features
• Team meals and a family-first, no-ego environment
