Heads-up shouted across the line that a dish (or a whole table's worth of dishes) will be ready to plate in five minutes. Gives the rest of the brigade time to fire sides, warm plates, and get servers in position. Swap the number for any countdown — 10-out, 3-out, 2-out — and the meaning scales with it.
“Chef called 5-out on table 12 — fire the asparagus and get the sauce on the pass.”
