  • Wipe down all surfaces with Clorox wipes

  • Turn on hot dog rollers and set on high

  • Start Nacho cheese and chili in warmers by doing the following:

    • Fill warmer base units with hot water from the kettle (about ¼-â…“ full)

    • Plug in warmers and set on HIGH

    • Open cans of chili and cheese (check to see if any cans are in the fridge from the last game and use those first), add them to each warmer and add hot kettle water to thin out the mix

    • When chili is hot, set warmer to MEDIUM and keep cheese on HIGH

  • Start coffee (NEVER unplug coffee maker)

    • Place filter and and fill with 10-12 tablespoons of coffee (kept in freezer)

    • Make sure a coffee pot is on the bottom burner, and use the other pot and fill with water and pour into the top of the machine

    • When it is cold outside, start another pot of coffee and place the already made one on the top while making sure that burner is on

  • Make sure start up money is correct and loaded into the cash box, and ipads and square are turned on and ready

  • Take Chocolate out of the fridge and place on the center table, unless it is a hot day because it will melt

  • Make sure chips and candy are stocked and set on center table with the chocolate

  • Start Popcorn

    • ​Turn on warmer and the kettle (both switches), open the packet of kernels and butter and pour all together into kettle. Close lid. Listen for pops. Once popcorn popping slows to 3-4 seconds btw pops, dump out kettle and TURN OFF KETTLE SWITCH. Leave warmer on. Pre-packaged popcorn bags for quick sale.

  • Start Hotdogs. For normal weekday games, only make 12 hotdogs and 6 links to start. To start, turn on rollers to high. When dogs look brown and puffy, they are done. Place in bun and wrap with foil and label hotdog or hot link, place in warmer. If ever there is a major rush or a busy game, you can heat the dogs in microwave to speed up the process. ***set out all condiments on the counter (ketchup,relish,mustard)

  • Make sure all drinks are stocked and cold

  • On very hot days, we will go through lots of water…so if you need to use the rolling coolers to ice down water you can

  • Make sure you have pickles wrapped in foil and jalapenos placed in small plastic containers and leave in drink fridge

  • Use electric kettle to heat water for hot chocolate. Add 2-3 tablespoons of mix/cup

Concessions Closing Procedures

​

  • Monitor game progress to determine when it is appropriate to start closing. After the 6th inning, if the score allows, someone can start dishes. As we start cleaning up, we can keep selling drinks/candy/chips.

  • If there is a large amount of cheese and chili leftover, you can put them back in their cans, place lids on them, write date on the top and place in the fridge. If the warmers are less than half full, go ahead and dump them in the trash

  • Unplug cheese/chili warmers and remove cans…wash and leave to dry on the drying towel

  • Once warmer is cooled, dump water in sink and wipe down. Never submerge warmer in sink.

  • Popcorn machine:

    • Any excess popcorn can be thrown away. Turn off machine, unplug, and wipe down.

    • Unplug and remove kettle and wipe down…pay attention how you remove it so you can put it back together.

  • Extra bagged popcorn and hotdogs can be given to the players and coaches.

  • Hotdog machine must be wiped down by taking a clean wet towel and cleaning each roller while rollers are still turning, but heat is off. Remove drip pan and wash in sink. When finished, unplug the machine.

  • After cleaning dishes and utensils with soap, set to the side on the drying towel and let air dry.

  •  Restock all drinks and chips

  • Place all chocolate in fridge

  • Place all condiments back in fridge

  • Wipe down all surfaces with clorox wipes

Remaining money needs to be placed in other bag with closing sheet and both money bags are to be given to a booster member or a concession coordinator.
