Story of Samuel – Cook
I work with fresh chicken and our secret '11 herbs and spices' mix, which gives our chicken its unique flavor. The best part is seeing the direct results of my work when the dishes are served to our guests.
Samuel works with great pleasure as a cook at KFC and is excited about working with fresh, high-quality chicken products. “It’s nice to know that you’re working with products that are truly fresh every day,” he says. Samuel is responsible for the breading and coating of the chicken, and using the secret ’11 herbs and spices’ mix makes his work special, as it gives the chicken the unique flavor KFC is known for worldwide.
For Samuel, cooking at KFC is more than just cooking; it’s a dynamic process where he constantly makes a difference. “All products come through me, I prepare them, and then see them being sold to our guests. It’s always nice to see the result of your work right away.” He works in a team where open communication is key, which makes it pleasant for him. “It’s like a family, we really work as a team.”
KFC offers Samuel plenty of opportunities to further develop his skills, such as regular tests and training for new products. “This helps me bring out the best in myself.” He is especially proud of the Hot Wings, which take a lot of work but are delicious. Why did Samuel choose KFC? “We have very unique products, and that immediately appealed to me.”
