Fabrication Toolkit

Meat, poultry, and fish are the most costly part of the food budget of a foodservice operation, whatever the scale. Chefs with the means to do so often prefer to perform many fabrication tasks in-house to control portion size and to be sure that the quality of each portion is the same each time – important considerations when it comes to the establishment's reputation.

In the Fabrication Toolkit, we have designed each segment to help you and your staff take advantage of the benefits of fabrication items on premise.

• Meat & Poultry: Preparing your own meat and poultry menu cuts helps to keep food costs down and increase your bottom line.
  
  
• Fish & Shellfish: If you can cut your own fish, you can be assured of good quality, portion sizes that meet your specifications, and a lower overall food cost.
