Accountability through portion control
One package of each meat for each meal will help you better control food costs. Buying in bulk may be cheaper by the pound, but not if the pounds go in staff car trunks when you’re not there. Use this shopping list as an inventory control form and only make the meats to be used each week available to staff at the beginning of the week. You can then check anytime during the week and easily verify that the menu is being followed properly.
A VIP retail Grocery Customer
You can be a very important customer to a retail grocery store as few of their customers spend anywhere close to what you spend. Ask if they will give you a 10% discount every time you shop there. They probably will.
