What's the experience of being a barbecue chef in Zibo?

There were few guests before, so I was in a hurry. There are many guests now, and I'm too tired.

Data show that Zibo, with a population of 47 1 10,000, received more than 4.8 million people in March 2023. Think about this concept. Of course, the most "overwhelmed" is the local barbecue shop, which is booming and drives the barbecue owners crazy.

A boss bluntly said that he was so busy that he could only sleep for four hours a day, but he could never finish cooking barbecue and vegetables. Finally, he couldn't hold on, and announced that he would suspend business for three days, because saving his life was more important than making money.

Meanwhile, the barbecue chef in Zibo has become the most tiring job. In the past, it was easy to recruit people with a monthly salary of 6,000 yuan, but now tens of thousands of people have signed up. The rapidly expanding market demand has led to a sharp increase in the number of barbecue shops in Zibo. As of April 16, there were more than 70 barbecue-related individuals in Zibo in April, and more than 20 barbecue shops were added in April 14 alone.

2, three-piece set: biscuits, onions, sauce

Take two greasy kebabs, first wrap them in dipping sauce, then spread them on a small cake, hold the small cake in the palm of your hand and hold the kebabs tightly, then pull back the label, so that a few pieces of meat are completely wrapped in the small cake, and then put a section of green onion leaves or scallions on it to become a unique small cake.

I feel the wheat smell of biscuits. Peanuts, sesame seeds and fresh barbecue are mixed together. Biscuits make the slightly salty meat delicious, dipping sauce provides enough flavor, and green onions well offset the greasy kebabs.
