There is a sewer odor near the back door, could be from the grease trap out back or maybe the natural gas vent out back as was suggested by employees. It could be a bad air admittance valve (AAV) in the ceiling. There is a old vent out the roof that is over that area. Exhaust vents could be next to intake vents etc.

There were four or five pans of beef hunks on the prep table, wrapped in cellophane and two pans half full of pulled beef. All of the beef was 78-88 degrees. The manager said the beef is a fully cooked product that comes refrigerated or frozen. He said it was not cooked today. The meat was 78-88 degrees and room temperature in the kitchen is about 73 degrees. The employee preparing the meat said he does not speak English and no one seems to know how the meat was heated up to 88 degrees. The manager thinks it was left out too long at room temperature or maybe it was put under hot running water. The beef is required to be maintained cold at 45 degrees or colder. The beef should have been pulled cold. It would be good if it came in already pulled. (All the beef was discarded into the trash can.)

The door on the right of the dumpster corral is damaged. The hinges are separating from the door and need to be welded back on properly. This door is large and very heavy and could be dangerous if it falls off.
Some of the food in the steam table out front was not hot enough. The chicken and the beef were 120-130 degrees. Keep enough water in the steam wells so the product in the pans stays 135 degrees or hotter. (The chicken, steak and beef was discarded)

All of the food in the steam table out front was not hot enough. The beans were 156 in the center but only 129 against the edge of the pan. The other items were also hotter in the center than on the edges. The water was only about one fourth to one half inch deep in the steam table wells. Keep enough water in the steam wells so the product in the pans stays 135 degrees or hotter. (The food was eaten and the steam table was filled to the proper level.)
