Watch House Grill Sesh! Who: Open! What: Grilling! Get your heaps of meat or bean patties, elote, and low-veg salads! When: 7/17 Where Third Watch Complex (Kitchens, backyard)
Markus respected that with all these irregular types of people, everyone's food intake was different and needed specialized tailoring to keep them running at peak condition. But he also knew that barbecues were a sacred place to ignore their food czar's rules. He politely but firmly steered the sputtering woman out of the kitchen when it dawned on her what oil was in the fryer (you fried chicken in peanut or nothing).
He honestly enjoyed the chance to get back behind the burners, settling into the zen of multitasking and watching over all parts of the dish. It sure beat "how hard can we throw the car at Mark?" training sessions. The residential cooking team had left a perfect crust on the flattop to work with and he was just starting to get the onions to color before putting down patties to cook.
