Some New Items For The Season

ettline — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 02:23:23 +0000

Some exciting new items were show at our monthly sales meeting today. The first product was Veal Top Round from Marcho, 2-5pounders to the case. Great color, flavor and structure! If you like slicing your own veal then definitely ask your sales rep about this product. The second item was a sliced and pounded Veal Scaloppini. This Veal Scaloppini comes in frozen and has great color and flavor. I made Veal Marsala today for the sales team and they loved it! The third product is for all your holiday parties from Farmland Steamship of Ham, perfect with a Orange Bourbon Glaze; bone in ham that has a handle for carving. Make a great impression with your customers with this great carving station item. The last product was Brethren Butter, this butter is a 2 pound package that is hand rolled and packaged. Take the opportunity to look at this new butter with an average butter fat content around 86%.

Another part of the sales meeting was an update our equipment line. Chef Bill just purchased 2 Bakers Pride ranges and a Beverage Air refrigerator. Our large equipment line at Ettline has really taken off. We have the ability to get you anything from a ladle to your entire kitchen from booths to tables, chairs and plateware, as well as ranges and pizza ovens to toaster. With a list of manufactures that is simply amazing. Please contact your Ettline sales rep for more information or just blog me here and I can come out and help you.

Football and Fall, does it get any better?

ettline — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 15:26:09 +0000

The weather is turning cooler and I am looking forward to the beginning of fall. Fall means a couple of things to me; first, football is back and we all love rooting for our favorite teams, secondly, wing sales will be on the rise for the next few months.

Reviewing current market reports, it looks like they will probably be
rising in price. Rib portions and meaty ribs from Farmland, Pzottis from Taste of Italy as well as ribs from Farmland, Pazottis from Taste of Italy as well as your signature chicken
tenders (recipe shown under “Great Recipes” category). Please look for new ideas weekly for your football season.
