Welcome to the first part of our transformative series, "Food Cost Explained", where we dive deep into the economic aspect of your culinary art. In this inaugural episode, we embark on an intriguing journey exploring money - its history, its power, and its pivotal role in your kitchen. What is money, you ask? More than just paper and coins, it's an instrument that has shaped civilizations and is, now, shaping your menu. We trace back to the origins of money, its evolution, and its impact, drawing surprising connections with your culinary creations. We then delve into an oft-overlooked perspective: viewing food as money. Each ingredient is an investment, every dish a financial decision. It's about understanding your kitchen not just as a creative space but also a profitable business unit. Let's reimagine food cost in a new light and set the stage for a culinary journey that marries taste and economics seamlessly. A must-listen for every chef that wants to turn their passion into a sustainable, successful endeavor.

I am sure you've been told you need to calculate your food cost. Heck, you've probably heard from several experts that your food cost target is a 34% food cost, or that you're supposed to mark up each of your food items on your menu 3 times. Well, neither of these methods are correct. Flush them from your mind because they are total BS. In this episode of The Restaurant Prosperity Formula, I will explain why those approaches are wrong and why it's important to know your food cost. I'll also explain what you should be doing to calculate your food cost, including the three food cost calculations you must know to control your food cost: budgeted food cost, actual food cost and ideal food cost. You'll learn how comparing all three of these numbers will allow you, for the first time in your restaurant life, to gain valuable insights into your menu that will allow you to virtually unlock your profit potential. Listen now to unlock your restaurant's profits with the three food cost calculations.
I see the question "how do I determine food cost" a dozen times a week. Sadly someone attempting to be helpful will say "three times cost". That is a 33% food cost and has not been a serious restaurant goal since 1980. It is time to bury this zombie advice.

It doesn't matter if you're brand new to the restaurant business or you're a seasoned veteran, food cost challenges will plague you. From regular price increases on a variety of products to natural disasters that drive prices up on commodities like chicken and oranges. Here's the deal, though. You can count on the prices you're paying for food to fluctuate and to increase dramatically without much warning. That's a given and it's out of your control. In this episode of my podcast, The Restaurant Prosperity Formula, I am talking about what you can control. Most restaurants operate 7-9% above their ideal food cost and, in most cases, it's due to a lack of systems and a lack of leadership. Listen in for the full explanation along with the kitchen systems you can use to lower your restaurant food cost and lead your restaurant success.
The start of a new year is always a good time for restaurants to evaluate and update menus for profitability. But, as you'll hear in this episode, given inflation and rising overhead costs, it's best to build this task into your regular workflow, helping ensure your menu consistently meets expectations and desired margins. Menu management is one of Josh's favorite parts of the job. In this episode, he draws from his years of hands-on experience consulting with restaurant operators to share key takeaways. With more and more operators working IN their restaurants lately, it's important to remember to set aside adequate time to work ON your business.For more factors to consider when adjusting menu prices in 2023, check out Luke's article "New Year, New Menu Prices."And for more about restaurant menus, marketing, and profitable strategies for your restaurant check out our blog.

A common question I get from restaurant owners is, “Why is my actual food cost so high and why is it so much more than my ideal food cost?” The second part of that question is what to do if your actual food cost is running much higher than your ideal food cost. These are age-old questions in the restaurant industry and a puzzle to be worked out so every week you have a higher chance of making money. In this episode of “The Restaurant Prosperity Formula,” I teach you how to calculate your ideal and actual food costs and what systems and data you need to calculate them properly. I also talk about why these two numbers are so important to making money and the kinds of things you can do to get the numbers to line up more closely. Plus I offer you a series of kitchen systems you can put in place to control your food cost and run a tighter operation.

Why does local food cost more? Is it worth it? If you've wondered what it takes to start a farm that nurtures the land and community while being financially viable, this episode includes so many juicy details on exactly how to make regenerative farms work. Organic agriculture expert and farm consultant Brian Maisenbacher of Earth Growers LLC shares his knowledge from over 10 years of experience in permaculture, ranching, orchards, Korean Natural Farming, market gardens and beyond. He weaves a profound picture of the local food systems at large and how we as consumers can better understand what happens behind the scenes. He shares his advice on how to communicate with our farmers as consumers and the questions we should (and shouldn't) be asking. Plus, we dig into exactly WHY local organic food costs more, how we can change our value systems around food, and the importance of the story behind each unique farm. We also learn about the incredible approach Brian takes to his consulting and farm design process to help farms become more profitable and provide a better way of life for farmers themselves. Starting from a big picture mission and dialing into the details of farm design, infrastructure, marketing, and more, Brian shows us why farming is so much more than planting seeds in the ground or showing up to the farmer's market.
Restaurant Management 101, back to basics. I'm going to show you exactly how to calculate your cost percentage for both your bar products (beer, liquor, wine), as well as your food and retail for your bar and restaurant. If you have a bar inventory system for this, you know exactly how awesome it is to have. If you're still counting your bar inventory old school, you'll need to calculate your cost percentage yourself.

Your menu is your #1 marketing piece and should be updated to reflect new trends, fresh ideas and be costed and priced properly for adequate profit. Today we run through how price fits into that equation. Food Cost your menu: Amazing how many restaurateurs don't know their food cost. What does your menu run theoretically with your current pricing and cost of goods? This should be looked at versus your Actual Food Cost with waste, over/under portioning, potential theft, etc.… Focus on Gross Profit on each dish and by category on menu. You will never take Food Cost percentage and deposit it in the bank. Menu price bench marking: Look at what other restaurants that you would want to emulate, share you customers with or are just geographically close to you. Look at their menu pricing versus yours and “Pattern” this price difference. Raising prices in an uncertain world: This is Pent up demand coming out of the Covid-19 Pandemic. People want to get out and enjoy their favorite local spots again. QSR Magazine did a consumer survey: Customers will spend twice as much money per month at restaurants that meet their cleanliness standards. Strategic changes: Changing menu every 6 months you can add variety and give customer value with correct pricing. If you never change menu and do price increase every 3-5 years… your customers will notice increases. You are putting more attention on pricing the longer you don't change. Always provide Hospitality and EARN the money. Don't take customers for granted. – Someone is spending their most precious asset with you. Their time… Give them a value!

Restaurant Pricing Strategies to Save Your 2021 -- Welcome to week 4 million of living in a pandemic while owning a restaurant. This week, I'm talking about a major issue for restaurants right now: the shortage of food and the resulting increase in prices. What you're paying for products right now is going through the roof, one of the largest increases in food distribution pricing in decades. The struggle to find employees continues as well. Your food distributors are a good example of this – sales managers are making deliveries! To deal with this right now, I've been coaching my members to attack their menus. Your menu is the key to the labor shortage and your product prices. Tune into this episode of The Restaurant Prosperity Formula to hear stories about restaurant owners I work with week to week and the changes they're making. I tell you about how they're reducing their menu sizes, how they're attacking the menu and getting creative, how they're figuring out how to reduce prep and simplify their operations, how they can make changes on the fly during a shift to save the kitchen, do less with fewer employees, and continue to keep customers happy and loyal.

Today’s guest is one of my favorites! Mr. Jesse Vazquez delivers powerful advice from the trenches throughout a long illustrious career. Jesse began to learn how to run a restaurant in his family’s Miami Cuban Cafe where 18 hour days were the norm, seven days a week. They put it all on the line committing to a concept that bled money. Despite the staggering odds of failure in this business, Jesse was determined to find out and learn the restaurant business from the inside out. When he was ready to start and open a restaurant and then open more concepts, he applied “systems” which became his exit strategy. Long before social media, Jesse is famous for going outside his place to find customers and bring in the business (“street fighting as he calls it”). If you’re looking for restaurant marketing ideas, take this one lesson all the way to the bank. We’re going to zero in on 2 powerful ideas that will make all the difference for your operation: 1) Understanding your Target Customer, Market Leadership and Strategies to Increase sales in restaurants and 2) The difference between Food Cost & Bottom-Line Profit This episode holds so much passion for this business and endless take-aways you can apply today to run a stronger restaurant.

This week I’m welcoming Dr. Jennifer Adolphe back to the show! She is a pet nutritionist for Petcurean, and the company has recently released a new line of premium pet foods called GATHER. Last time we spoke about the humanization of pet food and the current trends that we’re seeing in the pet food industry. As humans wise up about the chemicals and artificial ingredients in the food that we eat, we’re also noticing that the food we’re feeding our pets is also full of these ingredients. Pet owners are pushing for foods made with organic, natural ingredients. We’re also seeing some human diet trends - like raw food and the Paleo diet – crossing over into the pet food industry. Unfortunately, as the quality of the food goes up, so do the price tags. So, why does premium pet food cost so much? Dr. Adolphe answers this question and many more in this week’s podcast episode. She also discusses the issues surrounding sustainability in the pet food industry. GATHER is sustainably produced and made with certified and organic ingredients. Why is sustainability important when it comes to pet food? You’ll find out in this week’s episode!
