Porcelet Perfection

November 2, 2008 11:59 pm

A few weeks after the idea for Behind the Burner was born, I went to visit Chef Kerry Heffernan at South Gate. I explained the idea; the concept of coupling educational and entertaining content with commerce and how I wanted all of my culinary masters to serve their secrets to our audience. He looked at me in complete bewilderment (sort of like I had two heads) and then wished me lots of luck. Weeks later, I introduced him to Caroline and before anyone could blink he introduced us to a premier purveyor for fine chefs, D'Artagnan (see Featured Promotions), and we were ready to film.

When I met Kerry Heffernan for the first time (at a Momentum Women event- GO CESLIE!), I knew he was in a class by himself. He commands a strong presence in any room. He is a true professional in every sense of the word; his descriptions of ingredients and preparation are given in meticulous detail. Read his Q&A Behind the Experts and you will know what I mean! Thanks Kerry for your unique ability to teach and share your intense talent for turning a piggy from the market into a mouthwatering meal (see Video.)
