Chef Jerad Slates

Cooking food for people is my passion, both in the home and outside of it. With over 20 years of catering experience, I specialize in a wide range of cuisines, including Northern and Southern Italian, sushi, rustic French, and Asian dishes. I also offer Spanish and South American flavors, along with classic American comfort food.

My services cater to health-conscious clients and focused dietary needs, including meal prep. Whether it’s multiregional outdoor cooking and grilling or crafting fine cuisine brunches, I bring passion and expertise to every event.
