HACCP:  There is evidence that food besides frozen pizzas and snack foods are being prepared on site.  There are 9 cartons of eggs in the walk in cooler.  There are also containers of hot sauce in the walk in cooler.  Large bulk containers of BBQ sauce, ketchup, mustard etc. are present in the refrigerator along with hot dogs.  Grills are located in the back deck area.  This facility is licensed to do ONLY alcohol, frozen pizzas, and snack foods.  If facility would like to add items to the menu, the health department must be contacted prior to the addition of the items.


At approximately 11:00 am, a man was grilling in the parking lot of this facility.  A sign advertised "Al Martin's BBQ."  This man was told that he needed a food and drink license to serve food to the public and needed to follow the temp. event guidelines.  Since the man did not have a handwashing sink, three compartment sink, hot or cold holding units, he was told to go home.  At approximately 1:20pm, the same man was found to still be grilling in the parking lot.  When questioned, he said that the owner of I R Here told him that it was his property and that he didn't have to leave.  He also stated that the food was included as part of I R Here's food and drink license.  

Outdoor grilling does not fall under the current license of I R Here.  For 2011 an additional outdoor grilling license is needed.  For 2012, all that may be required is a variance on the annual license, if approved by the County Board.  If interested in outdoor grilling you MUST contact the health department.
