- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (repeated violation)
Observation: TCS food in walk in cooler is >41°F. Cooked steak and other TCS foods cooled at close of business yesterday are 45-46°F. Raw chicken 46°F, sour cream 45°F, cooked pork 44°F. Raw chicken received today is 35°F. Data logger run from 5-9-2014 through this morning shows cooler temp consistently >41°F.
Correction: PIC agreed to discard TCS foods that were cooked and cooled here as well as the commercially precooked TCS foods that were not received in todays shipment. Service tech has been contacted and is expected here today. If the cooler isn't repaired and the foods received today start to warm to 40°F use additional resources (other coolers, refrigerated truck, ice baths etc. to keep the food cold).

- Critical: Hands and Arms Cleaning Procedure* (corrected on site)
Observation: Employee washed hands without using soap upon return to work after a break.
Correction: Employee rewashed hands with soap. Reinforce the inportance of good hand hygiene with all employees - I noticed several handwashes that were minimally effective (not lathering soap on hands and short time duration).
- Critical: Eating, Drinking, or Using Tobacco* (corrected on site)
Observation: Employee drinking from a twist top container in food prep area.
Correction: Employee removed drink from area. Discussed requirement to use covered cup with a straw for employee drinks consumed in work areas to minimize risk of contaminating hands, food and food contact surfaces.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site)
Observation: TCS foods at temps above 41°F in RIC/grill (pork 54, raw chicken 44), WIC (cooked chicken and cooked steak cooled last night 42.4, raw chicken 44, sour cream 44), and Make Table cooler (sour cream 51, cheese 44).
Correction: All of these foods were held in WIC overnight. Some were prepped today and have 4 hours after prep to cool back down to <42°F. The raw chicken in the WIC was marinated last night and the cooked pork in the RIC should have been <42°F. The RIC at the grill and at the fax line do not close properly - repair these units so the doors fit tight. The air temp of the WIC was 40.5°F. A data logger was placed in the unit to monitor the temp over a period of several days. I will come back early next week to download the readings from the data logger. In the meantime, closely monitor the temperature of this unit and make sure employees are not leaving the door open longer than necessary. If temps are above 41°F - call your service tech. The pork in the RIC was reheated and the raw chicken was in the back of the WIC where, given the air temp of the unit, it should cool to <42°F. NOTE: The only cold food I found at <42°F was the corn salsa in the WIC.
