Prep lists

Tomorrow's prep list, written before you get in.

BrigadeKit builds each day's prep list from expected covers, prep pars and what is already in the walk-in. The team works through it on a phone or tablet; you see progress from anywhere.

01

Quantities from real demand

Prep par × expected covers, minus what is already made. No more guessing how much purée to make.

02

By station and by person

Split the list by station, assign items and see who did what.

03

Less waste, fewer 86s

Making what you need, not what you made last Tuesday, cuts both waste and running out mid-service.

Questions

Can I still add items by hand?

Yes. Generated lists are a starting point; chefs can add, remove and reassign items.

Does it use my recipes?

Yes. Prep items are your sub-recipes, so quantities, yields and methods are linked.

Is it on the Starter plan?

Prep lists are part of Pro and Group. See the pricing page for the full comparison.
