At Van Till Family Farm Winery, we’re searching for someone to step into one of the most important roles in our Wine Garden – our Wood-fired Oven Operator. This isn’t just a job; it’s an opportunity to become the master of our wood-fired oven, responsible for every pizza, breadstick, and baked brie that comes out piping hot and perfectly golden. From creating the perfect crust to giving each dish that signature smoky flavor, you’ll be in charge of making sure our guests get an unforgettable culinary experience.
A Brief History of Wood-fired Ovens
Wood-fired ovens have been part of cooking history for thousands of years, cherished for their ability to reach high temperatures quickly and maintain consistent heat. Ancient civilizations, like the Romans, used them for baking bread and pizzas much like we do today. These ovens are revered for imparting unique flavors that simply can’t be matched by any other method.
Cooking with fire takes skill, patience, and an understanding of how heat moves and transforms food. As our Wood-fired Oven Operator, you’ll carry on this rich tradition, mastering the art of making the perfect wood-fired pizza – crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and topped with all kinds of deliciousness.
The Role: Pizza, Breadsticks, and Brie, Oh My!
While our menu is simple, it’s also the star of the show. As the Wood-fired Oven Operator, you will be responsible for every pizza, breadstick, and baked brie that comes from the oven. It may sound straightforward, but the magic of wood-fired cooking is in the details – from perfectly timing the bake to mastering the fire to achieve that perfect balance of texture and flavor. You’ll be the one ensuring that every pizza has a golden, crispy crust, that every breadstick is soft on the inside with just the right amount of crunch, and that every baked brie is melted to perfection.
