Short order cooking

From HandWiki - Reading time: 1 min

Short order cooking is common at greasy spoon and diner restaurants.[1]

Short order cooking, in the restaurant business, is the preparation of foods that are quick to cook.[2] Many small restaurants serve only short-order items, which include fried, broiled, griddled foods, as well as assembled foods like sandwiches. Short order cooking is common at greasy spoon and diner restaurants.[3] Diner lingo is a language associated with short order cooking.

A cook responsible for short order cooking is a short order cook. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics defines the role of short order cooks as those who, "Prepare and cook to order a variety of foods that require only a short preparation time. May take orders from customers and serve patrons at counters or tables," and it specifically excludes fast food cooks.[4] As of May 2019, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates there were more than 150,000 short order cooks in the United States.[4]
