Clearer days, cooler mornings, and crisp afternoon sunsets… the autumn season in East Tennessee is enjoyable in many ways. The leaves have a devoted fan base; the pumpkin patch is tradition for many local children and adults; and families enjoy drives in the scenic Cades Cove area on the weekends.
At CORECHEM, fall means green trucks idling in fresh, snappy, barely-bright mornings… and (historically) Inventory Day.
That’s different, this year – with a change in our fiscal calendar. Inventory Day won’t be held until the end of 2025 (our new fiscal year).
Instead, we kicked off the fall season with ribeye steaks + fries, cooked to perfection and thoroughly enjoyed by the team. Later, we had some fun with a game at the conclusion of our staff meeting. (You can enjoy the ‘behind-the-scenes’ in the video above!)
We asked the team for feedback on the meal / event – here’s what they had to say:
“It was fabulous!” – Frank
“I’ve never had better steaks – perfectly cooked and practically melted in my mouth. Absolutely phenomenal!” – Randy
“Thoroughly enjoyed…” – Tim
