Job description

What This Role Is About:
Wunsche Bros. isn’t your average kitchen — and we’re not looking for your average chef.

We’re searching for a Sous Chef who thrives under pressure, takes full ownership of their kitchen, and understands that real leadership means building others up—not just barking orders. If you’ve got a deep respect for scratch cooking, live-fire grilling, and know how to lead a crew with confidence, this is your shot.

  • You run the kitchen like it’s your name on the door.

  • You take initiative, solve problems before they become problems, and hold your team to a high standard.

  • You communicate clearly, directly, and professionally—whether it’s with line cooks, dishwashers, or ownership.

  • You’re hands-on: from managing the fire pit to training a new prep cook, you lead by doing.

Responsibilities Include:

  • Run all live-fire cooking operations: build fires, manage heat, and smoke meats to perfection

  • Train, mentor, and hold your team accountable setting the tone every shift

  • Collaborate with ownership and the General Manager on menu planning, cost control, and daily specials

  • Handle all BOH operations: ordering, prep sheets, inventory, cleaning, labor management

  • Uphold high standards for food safety, sanitation, and kitchen organization

  • Be the calm in the chaos when things get busy—and bring others with you

  • Butcher proteins, ensure portioning, control waste, and execute every plate with consistency

  • Step up when others fall short—we don’t micromanage here, this is your kitchen to lead

Who You Are:

  • You’ve got 5+ years of experience in high-volume, scratch kitchens

  • You’ve worked with smokers, wood fire pits, or live-fire grilling for at least 5 years

  • You’re organized, focused, and calm under pressure

  • You communicate like a pro and bring out the best in every cook on your team

  • You know how to coach, correct, and inspire—not just criticize

  • You’re passionate about food, people, and putting out plates you’re proud of

  • You’re not looking for a job—you’re looking to build a legacy with a team that has your back

  • Manager ServSafe Certified 

What We Offer:

  • Job Type: Full-time, Salaried

  • Pay: Starting at $55,000+ (based on experience)

  • Schedule: Consistent schedule

  • Work Location: In-person | Spring, TX 77373
    (Must be able to reliably commute or relocate prior to starting)

How to Apply:
Send your resume and a brief cover letter to jobs@wunschebros.com.
Only qualified applicants will be contacted for interviews.
