I was a professional catering chef for years. I can tell your food is the real dealThanks! I have been cooking since I was 12 yrs old. I stated from a purely practical reason. Mom cooked while me and my two sisters had to clean up after supper. I hated doing dishes so I asked mom if we could trade jobs. She obliged. So I learned and by 13 yrs old I would cook the full dinner by myself so I didn’t have to clean up. I feel in love with cooking and began watching the food network. I loved watching Emeril Lagasse and the original Iron Chef as well as many others. I considered even being a chef as my profession. It was about 5 yrs ago when I discovered Meat Eater and others that I really stepped up my wild game cooking game. It used to be bacon, cream cheese and jalapeños on everything.
