Brevard and Palm Bay native Chris Johnson, the only contestant from our area, is vying for the title of “Favorite Chef” in a competition presented by Carla Hall. Chris, inspired by family traditions, showcases his culinary talent with a signature steak dish featuring mushrooms, peppers, caramelized onions, broccoli, and a loaded baked potato.
Who or what inspires you to cook?

I’d watch them create meals and never really look at a recipe because it seemed they knew the ingredients, and the right amount for everything.

What’s your all time favorite dish to make?
Awe that’s a tough one! I don’t necessarily have an all time favorite dish. I wanted to have versatility cooking everything, because not everyone wants to eat the same thing. If I really had to choose, I would say a nice steak topped with mushrooms, peppers, caramelized onions with a side of broccoli and a loaded baked potato. You know, pretty simple!
What would you do with the $25,000?
Wow! Winning this competition would definitely be a dream come true. I would invest part of the money, give my son what he needs, take care of some important things in life and I would also use a portion to start my catering business because everyone has to eat!
Let’s support our local talent! Vote for Chris Johnson and help him achieve his dream.
