Forty Acres Tavern Experienced Line Cook

Overview

Forty Acres Tavern is one of the most celebrated full-service restaurants across all of Boyne Resorts — and the kitchen is where that reputation is earned, plate by plate, shift by shift. As a Line Cook at Forty Acres, you're not just executing recipes - you're upholding a standard that guests come back for, season after season.

We're looking for a cook who takes pride in their station, communicates well with their team, and brings the same level of care and focus to the hundredth plate of the night as they did to the first. Everything we do at Boyne Mountain is guided by our core values — L.E.A.D.S.: Long-Term Thinking, Excellence in Execution, Attitude is Everything, Develop Great People, and Serve First. You'll bring those values to your station, your teammates, and every dish you send out.

As a Boyne Mountain team member, you'll also enjoy ski passes, golf passes, waterpark passes, and discounts on food, beverages, retail, daycare, and much more. To learn more about Boyne Mountain Resort, employment perks, and employee testimonials, click here - Boyne Mountain Employment!

Responsibilities

• Excellence in Execution - Prepare food according to recipes, use records, and presentation specifications — measuring, mixing, plating, and portioning with consistency and precision every single time. Observe and test foods by tasting, smelling, and using a thermometer to ensure everything leaving your station meets the Forty Acres standard.
• Long-Term Thinking - Stock and maintain sufficient levels of food products at your station before and throughout service. Label, date, and rotate all stored food properly, and perform thorough closing procedures — cleaning, sanitizing, and organizing the kitchen, walk-in coolers, and all storage areas so the next shift starts strong.
• Serve First - Communicate and coordinate production with fellow cooks, wait staff, and the broader food and beverage team. A smooth, high-volume service at Forty Acres is a team effort — and you're a reliable part of that team every shift.
• Attitude is Everything - Bring focus, composure, and positive energy to every shift. Forty Acres is a high-volume, full-service environment that demands a cook who stays sharp and steady whether it's a quiet afternoon or a packed weekend dinner rush.
• Operate and adjust all kitchen equipment — ovens, broilers, grills, roasters, kettles, and more — safely and confidently, and develop familiarity with all equipment in the kitchen.
• Adhere to all food handling guidelines, sanitation standards, and kitchen policies and procedures at all times.
