What are the responsibilities and job description for the Line Cook/Prep Cook position at Bitterroot?
Bitterroot is looking for a Line Cook to join our kitchen team.
We’re a chef-driven restaurant focused on thoughtful American food rooted in the Gulf Coast and the Florida Panhandle. We cook from scratch, work with quality ingredients, butcher and fabricate in-house, make our own stocks, sauces, ferments, pastas, and more.
We were recognized in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide, but we’re not interested in ego or pretension. We’re interested in getting better every day and putting great food on the plate consistently.
What we’re looking for
- Strong basic cooking and knife skills
- Ability to work clean, organized, and with urgency
- Dependability — show up when you’re scheduled and ready to work
- Willingness to learn and take feedback
- Ability to handle a busy service without falling apart
- Respect for the food, the kitchen, and the people working beside you
Experience is preferred, but attitude, work ethic, and a genuine desire to become a better cook matter more to us than a perfect résumé.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll work multiple stations, prep your station for service, execute dishes consistently, maintain sanitation standards, and contribute to a kitchen where cooks are expected to understand why we do things—not just memorize where things go.
This is a good kitchen for someone who wants to develop real cooking skills and be surrounded by people who take the craft seriously.
