They say too many cooks spoil the broth, but with the Sous-Chef and their boss, the Chef, in the kitchen that broth will not only be spoiled but also deep-fried, put in a sandwich, and made into sushi, in no particular order.

To Serve Man and Chefs

Main article: Foods

Goonstation's cooking system is pretty simple to the point that if you're a sous-chef in real life, you might overthink things and struggle more than someone with no culinary knowledge. Most recipes involve putting certain ingredients in the oven and picking the right settings. If you get the best setting possible, the buffs gained from eating it last much longer than usual. Conversely, if you put in the wrong ingredients or set it to too high a time, you get mush and charred remains, respectively.

For example, to make a cheeseburger, you

  1. Make flour into dough. No need for buns.
  2. Find a piece of meat (not a patty)
  3. Cut up some cheese into slices.
  4. Put everything in the oven for 7 seconds and set it to high.

For some recipes, like cake batter, you might need to insert something into the KitchenHelper (just a mixer) or the processor (less a food processor and more a general-purpose food refining machine; for example, it turns wheat into flour, which is not what food processors in real life do) For some recipes, you can add an ingredient of your choice. These recipes can accept any other food item, even if it's whole entire dish or something normally not used for said recipe. One of the major joys of cooking is making cursed food combos, e.g. a soup made with ice cream, onion chips, and bowl of udon noodles.

You can make all possible recipes as a Sous-Chef; no recipes are level-locked or time-locked. The recipes themselves don't change just because there's another person in the kitchen.

Differences from Chef

The thing about being Numbah Two is that you're also number two in terms of ability, though in rather minor ways. For one, when raking through gibs for mystery meat, you only have a 70% chance to actually get some meat. Similar deal when rifling through robot debris; you only have a 70% chance to get meatal. While you'll get less meat than a Chef would, 70% is still a pretty high chance of getting something. It's better than 50-50, so you're more likely to succeed than fail. Besides, very few recipes use these meats, so it's not a huge loss.

In addition, you do not get crew objectives or Chef XP.

Otherwise, it's the same as being a chef.

Your Place in the Food Chain

Sous-Chef is considered subordinate to the Chef, so you should generally follow their commands. If having someone bark orders at you is not up to your taste, fear not. Most chefs are pretty chill and will happily let you do your own thing, without much interference. Since this is a kitchen, not a battlefield, most commands they do issue will be something like, "Hey, help me make pies" or "Mind grabbing my crate from Cargo?" rather than "go take the hill or we'll bombard your trench" or "kill the Captain because she said my hat was dumb" (and if you do get such unreasonable orders, follow common sense and disregard them)
