Cooling Procedure
Maximum Pan Level
The maximum amount of beans that can be cooled in each pan is half of a 6" deep pan.
If your pan is more than halfway filled, you will need to split it into another clean pan.
Placement
Place the pan of beans in the walk-in uncovered, under a non-ventilated shelf or on the cart.
The pan must be under the non-ventilated shelf so no physical contaminants can fall into the pork.
Cooling cycle 1
The beans must cool to 70° within the first 2 hours of being placed into the walk-in.
If you are unable to get it to cool properly it must be discarded.
Cooling Cycle 2
The beans must then cool to 40° within the next 4 hours after the first 2 hours, or 6 hours in total.
If you are unable to get it to cool properly it must be discarded.
Heating Procedure
Pork can be reheated ONE time only.
Where to Reheat
The pan(s) of beans must be reheated in the stock pot(s).
When Reheating, the burner heat level should be set to medium low heat level to keep the beans from burning while being reheated to the proper 165° temperature.
Combine
You may combine reheat pans of like beans in the same stock pot while reheating.
Remember to Stir
Remember to stir the beans while they reheat using a high temp spatula, making sure to scrap the beans from the bottom of the pot so they do not burn.
Add small increments of water to hydrate if/as needed.
Be sure to mix/stir the beans every 5 to 10 mins to promote even heating. This will also help to speed up the reheating process.
Temp the Product
The reheat beans must reach a temperature of 165° prior to serving.
After reaching the required temperature, you can place beans on the front line to serve, or wrap it and place it in the hot box for later use.
Remember to use FIFO when placing in hot box.
If using a reheat beans on the front line, the cycle must be broken when the pan is empty.
(DO NOT add reheat beans to a fresh pan when filling with the next pan)
