Q: How is the modern kitchen brigade different from the classic kitchen brigade?
A kitchen brigade is the group of workers who unite as a team to produce different parts of a meal. This brigade includes chefs, sous chefs, prep cooks and expediters.

well the only difference is that the classical brigade system did NOT have:
a corporate executive chef
chef de cuisine/gros bonnet (kitchen chef/kitchen manager)

The brigade system was instituted by Escoffier to streamline and simplify work in hotel kitchens.
The classic kitchen brigade system works by having one person set to do one thing to make the meal. The modern kitchen brigade works by one person having four or five set things they have to do.
The role of the brigade system is to organize a production kitchen so that duplicate work is not being done yet all jobs that need to be done are being done. Escoffier's brigade system is still in operation, the "modern" brigade should still exist as Escoffier's original system. Obviously if your kitchen is smaller and all titles are not needed, combine them into a workable system for you.
Technically a kitchen brigade is a system that gives rank inside the kitchen. In terms of war, the brigade delegates responsibilities to individuals who specialize in specific tasks.
The entire kitchen personnel.
Augustus Escofier ran his kitchen like it was the military so he created the Kitchen brigade system. It served to eliminate the chaos that could result when workers did not have specific responsibilities. Under this system each position has a station and defined responsibilities, it is still carried out today.

Brigada is an Italian word from the 14th. century meaning 'troop, gang', so the use of the word in the kitchen probably began during the mists of the Rennaisance.
