Job Description

About Us:

Sultan Ahmet Turkish Cuisine is one of Canada's highest-rated Turkish restaurants, known for authentic flavors and exceptional service. We are seeking a skilled and experienced Oven Chef to join our busy kitchen and handle the preparation of Turkish Pide, Lahmacun, bread, and Pide toppings.

Sultan Ahmet Turkish Cuisine is hiring a Meat Cutter & Prep Specialist who understands the art of trimming, cleaning, and preparing meat for high-quality Adana, Shish, and Doner. This is not a standard butcher role -- we're looking for someone with attention to detail and deep knowledge of meat handling, quality, and yield.

Duties

-Trim and clean meats (beef, lamb, chicken) by hand, removing sinew, silver skin, tendons, nerves, and unwanted tissue with minimal meat loss

-Cube meat for skewers with precision and consistency

-Assess meat quality upon delivery -- including animal age, sex, fat content, and grading -- and reject substandard shipments

-Follow exact marination and recipe procedures for Doner, Adana, and Shish with zero deviation

-Monitor meat safety -- understand how long meat can remain outside, when to chill or discard

-Prepare daily portions to spec and support high-volume kitchen production

-Maintain hygiene, cleanliness, and FIFO rotation for all meat storage

Experience

-2+ years in a commercial kitchen, preferably in meat prep (not just slicing or grinding)

-Deep understanding of meat structure and anatomy

-Skilled at minimizing waste while maximizing yield

-Able to follow strict prep and marination instructions with no shortcuts

-Reliable, detail-oriented, and efficient under pressure

-Experience with Turkish or Mediterranean cuisine is a bonus
