  • Toños Tacos
  • Miami, FL

Job Description

We are building a focused, Mexico City–inspired taco concept in Miami featuring pastor, suadero, costilla , and house-made tortillas.
We’re launching with brewery pop-ups in early 2026 and moving toward a small permanent location later in the year.

We are seeking a Chef Consultant to lead short-term R&D, develop scalable recipes, and train our cooks. This is a project-based role , not a full-time position.

Responsibilities
  • Develop final recipes for pastor, suadero, costilla, and 2–3 salsas

  • Create a consistent tortilla recipe (masa hydration, pressing, cooking)

  • Standardize yields, batch prep, marination workflow, and holding procedures

  • Write clear SOPs for all prep and service steps

  • Train 1–2 cooks to execute all items consistently

  • Advise on minimal equipment needed for commissary + pop-up service

  • Establish ingredient specs and supplier list

  • Oversee 1–2 soft services (Feb 1–12) to ensure execution quality

  • Ensure all prep and handling meet food safety standards

Requirements
  • 3+ years professional experience in Mexican cuisine (CDMX-style a plus)

  • Strong knowledge of marinades, confit/braise techniques, and salsa development

  • Experience creating SOPs and training staff

  • Comfortable working in a commissary kitchen environment

  • Available 2–3 days/week between Jan 15 – Feb 12

  • Reliable transportation

  • Clear communicator who values consistency and simplicity

  • Must be willing to build systems — not run a full kitchen

Compensation
  • $300–$600/day depending on experience and project scope

  • Flexible scheduling within the Jan 15–Feb 12 window

  • Opportunity for future consulting during expansion stages

About the Concept

A focused Mexico City taco project built on:

  • Warm tortillas

  • Soulful salsas

  • Simple, clean flavors

  • High consistency and execution

We’re designing a scalable, modern CDMX-inspired taquería starting with a pop-up model.

If you enjoy building systems from the ground up and shaping an authentic, modern taquería concept, we’d love to speak with you.
