Locations

McKinney & Frisco

Built on Faith. Served with Purpose.

Since 1978, Hutchins BBQ has served real Texas smoke in McKinney and Frisco. We’ve been named one of Texas Monthly’s Top 50 BBQ Joints, voted Best BBQ in DFW for 2025, and invited twice to cook at the James Beard House in New York. But the awards aren’t what built this place. Faith, family, and serving others well did.

The Role

The pits and the kitchen are the heart of Hutchins. If you take pride in your craft and love feeding people, there’s a spot for you on our team.

Positions

• Pit Worker: Build and manage wood fires and tend the smokers. Load, monitor, wrap, and pull brisket, ribs, and sausage to the Hutchins standard, and keep the pits and pit area clean
• Cook: Prepare scratch-made sides, sauces, desserts, and favorites like the famous Texas Twinkie. Set up and break down the line and keep up with lunch rushes, weekends, and catering orders
• Meat Trimmer / Meat Prep: Trim, season, and prep brisket, ribs, and other proteins to Hutchins specifications, keeping portions consistent and the walk-in organized
• Dishwasher / Cook Prep: Wash and sanitize dishes and tools, prep sides and ingredients to recipe, and keep the kitchen spotless. No experience needed; we’ll train you

Food Safety First

Every plate we serve is a promise to our guests. Our kitchen and pit teams check internal meat temperatures, cook and hold food at safe temperatures, label and date everything, keep raw meat separate from ready-to-eat foods, and keep every station clean and sanitized.

What We’re Looking For

• A strong work ethic and pride in the craft
• Kitchen, pit, or meat-cutting experience is a plus; we’ll train the right person
• A team player who thrives in a fast-paced, high-volume kitchen
• Comfortable working around open fire, heat, smoke, and cold walk-in coolers
• Able to stand for long shifts and lift up to 50 lbs

Requirements

• A valid Texas Food Handler card is required
• Must be 18 or older
• Weekend and holiday availability is required. These are the days Hutchins looks and feels most like Hutchins

What We Offer

• Weekly pay: $12.50 – $17.00 per hour, depending on position and experience
• Benefits: Eligible to enroll 30 days after your hire date
• Paid time off: PTO accrues as you work
• Training: Learn the Hutchins way from a team that’s cooked at the James Beard House
