December is supposed to save your year, but for a lot of bars it quietly becomes the month with the biggest waste bill.

You’re packed, bottles are flying, the kitchen is slammed, and somehow the money left over never matches how hard you worked.

In this episode, we walk through a simple 48-hour December bar waste audit that shows you exactly how much you’re losing to over-pouring, spoilage, shrinkage, and messy inventory.

You’ll hear how to match what actually left the shelves with your food cost and pour cost, spot red flags in prep and ordering, and tighten things up without slowing service or becoming the “bad guy” on shift.

The goal is simple: actually keep the extra December profit instead of watching it disappear into the trash, the sink, and the write-offs.
