    Your oven sounds all kinds of over engineered and a bit of a nightmare.

    Orange Force is the shit! It's just citric acid and isn't that dangerous for your hands. I had to deal with ordering chemicals at a place and we were switching suppliers and the rep literally poured it on his bare arm to show how safe it is.

    Okay, you don't make your own sauce from scratch, then yeah, it's probably greasy .

    It sounds like you may work at a bit of a shitty place. That sauce as described in the recipe sounds pretty damn good and is hardly high effort to prep. I've generally worked in higher scale/more niche restaurants where things are made from scratch and cutting corners and putting out bullshit food tends to be a bad thing.

      It would be a cool oven if it worked right. I like that it cleans itself and I don't have to fuck around scraping shit off. Except there's this complicated calculus that goes into determining if it's dirty enough to run a clean cycle because half the time the supervisor tells me not to and I just want it to run regularly because... that seems like good preventative maintenance? Clean it when it isn't that dirty to prevent it from becoming so dirty that it can't clean it properly? But what do I know

      I think we're talking about some other Orange Force because this is some kind of other acid but mixed with surfactants. It definitely fucks up my hands. I'm sure the oven cleaner stuff is worse though, it strips the flooring tiles when the stupid fucking thing leaks water

      We're not trying to put out shitty food but it's a college dining hall so that's pretty much the quality of everything
