Appearance move to sidebar hide From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Fast preparation of restaurant foods
Short order cooking is common at greasy spoon and diner restaurants.[1]

Short order cooking is the preparation of inexpensive restaurant foods that are quick to cook.[2] Many small eateries serve only short-order items, which include griddled, fried, and grilled foods and sandwiches. Short order cooking is common at greasy spoons and diners.[3]

A cook responsible for short order cooking is a short order cook. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics defines the role of short order cooks as those who "prepare and cook to order a variety of foods that require only a short preparation time. May take orders from customers and serve patrons at counters or tables", and it specifically excludes fast food cooks.[4] As of May 2019, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates there were more than 150,000 short order cooks in the United States.[4]

Diner lingo is a language associated with short order cooking.
