How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 90–240 minutes. Method of record: Michelin Green Star sustainable kitchen leadership — the practice is documented and repeatable by the crew, not resident in one chef

Bring

• station method sheets
• calibrated probe
• sanitiser test strips
• scale
• camera
• training log

Steps

1. Photograph the site BEFORE with GPS on and a legible timestamp; confirm you are inside the posting radius.
2. 2. Document the current practice as it is actually run, not as it is described.
3. 3. Write the method for each station: sequence, holds, temperatures, and waste routing.
4. 4. Verify against the FDA Food Code: cook and hold temperatures, cooling windows, separation.
5. 5. Walk one full service with the sheet in place and record every deviation.
6. 6. Revise the sheet where reality is safer or better than the draft.
7. 7. Train the crew on the final sheet and log who was trained and when.
8. Photograph AFTER from the same position as the before shot.

If it does not match the plan

• Documented practice conflicts with the Food Code -> the Code wins; rewrite the method.
• A step depends on one named person's judgement -> it is not a method; make it explicit or remove it.
• Crew cannot follow the sheet in real service -> the sheet is wrong, not the crew; revise it.
• Any cooling or holding step missing a time and temperature -> incomplete; do not sign off.

What counts as done

• A written method sheet per station covering sequence, temperatures, holds, and waste routing
• Deviations recorded from one full observed service
• Training log naming who was trained and when
• Every hold and cool step carrying a time and a temperature
• Before and after photos from the same position, GPS inside the posting radius, timestamps legible

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
