Won Best New Chef at: Seventeen, Seventeen, Dallas

Where are they now?

Brown and his chef wife, Katie, opened George Catering in Dallas in the summer of 1999. In 2004, they expanded their business to include George Restaurant, but shuttered the operation two years later to focus solely on catering. Most recently, Brown launched Bandera Foods, which sells spiced pecans.
