Book Chef Jerry!!!!!!! Had an amazing experience! Don't let him leave your house without making "the soup"! He is a true gem and so glad he was our chef.

We had a great time with Chef Jerry! Our kitchen set up was small and poorly stocked but Jerry came super prepared and was unphased navigating the tiny space. He is an experienced chef and incredibly knowledgeable about core cooking techniques. He explains each step clearly as you go making it easy and educational. And obviously the food is incredible too. His recipes use simple ingredients but the flavors are unreal. I highly recommend booking a class with Jerry. I can’t wait to recreate what we learned for friends!

Chef Jerry showed me how to make seafood boudin balls with shrimp and crawfish. He clearly demonstrated each step of the process. The homemade sauce was a simple sauce of mayo, sriracha and lemon juice but added a nice tang to the final dish. The boudin balls turned out a perfect golden brown and crispy when finished. He shared this was a very popular dish that he serves at festivals.
