Staff stated that they clean cutting boards at the end of the night.
->In use equipment and utensils such as cutting boards, slicers, knives, and tongs, held at room temperature, must be washed in a detergent solution, rinsed and then sanitized (50-100 ppm chlorine/150-400 ppm quaternary ammonia) at least once every 4 hours to prevent accumulation of food residue and the growth of microorganisms. Set up a schedule to ensure equipment and utensils are pulled to clean and sanitize every 4 hours.

Staff stated they were cleaning the deli slicer with only sanitizer.
->In use equipment and utensils such as cutting boards, slicers, knives, and tongs, held at room temperature, must be washed in a detergent solution, rinsed and then sanitized (50-100 ppm chlorine/150-400 ppm quaternary ammonia) at least once every 4 hours to prevent accumulation of food residue and the growth of microorganisms. Set up a schedule to ensure equipment and utensils are pulled to clean and sanitize every 4 hours.
*Implement a clean in place procedure where the deli slicer is sprayer and cleaned with dish soap, then rinsed and finally sanitized.
Chili was found being hot held at 123-126F on the cook line across from the deli meats make table cooler. Staff stated they heat the chili directly in the food warmer.
->Quickly reheat commercially processed or canned food products to greater than 135 F prior to hot holding. After reheating, hot hold above 135 F to prevent the growth of microorganisms.
*Chili was heated up 3 hours prior to inspection. Staff reheated the chili in the microwave so it reached temperatures above the required 135F for reheating commercially processed foods before returning it to the steam table. Staff should reheat all of their hot holding to 135F before placing them into steam tables.
When discussing the cleaning procedure for the deli slicer the staff was observed cleaning it with a disinfectant level cleaner.
->Poisonous or toxic materials can not be used in a way that may contaminate food and food contact surfaces. Use according to manufacturer label directions.
*Disinfectant cleaner is not approved for cleaning of food contact equipment because that level of toxic cleaner can potentially contaminate food products during the slicing process. Staff should use food contact approved sanitizers to clean their in use equipment.
