we have always made fresh kabobs with fresh veggies and fresh chicken or beef or pork or sausages, but I see we are now going to a premade frozen chicken kabob.  It may save a little time but I dont like the idea.

Hi J, I don't like the ideal either, puts you a few steps farther away from the customer you need to be talking to, and to me,  it shows the customer they don't care about selling them a nice fresh meat item they would enjoy

I work for waldbaums (a&p) on long island, 5 years ago we were slicing fresh vegetables and usually sirloin cubes/chicken breast. They were beautiful and customers loved them. Now they bring in prepack kabobs in horrible looking containers that nobody buys.

Not to mention we had customers happily paying $5 a pound or more. Now they try to pawn off this prepack crap on my customers for the same price. Hell, most of the stores haven't used their patty machines in a couple of years lol.

Not making patties in house bothers me too.


But margin is slightly better when paying (underpaying) factory workers (wage slaves).

I ran a case with fresh kabobs using chunks of vacuum tumbled flap and cut vegetables. $10.99/lbs. We sold loads of 'em.

We make tons of frozen kebabs and they are some of our best sellers. I bought this machine in Korea that will insert 196 skewers into the meat and then we cut the grid. Big time saver.  kebab.gif

After sale service is sketchy though.
