Chef J. Jackson, Private Chef and Caterer
Media Kit
Chef J. Jackson aka Mr. Foodtastic Bio
Chef J. Jackson has become synonymous with great food and is a successful private chef based
in the DC metro area. Jackson has created his own personal style by mixing his love of food
with that of techniques from some of the best chefs in the country and beyond.
Forced into the kitchen at an early age by an overworked single mother, his first experiences in
the kitchen were not memorable. Despite early meals of burnt eggs, raw turkeys and rock hard
cookies, he chopped, mixed and sautéed his way into great cooking. After stints in 4-star hotels
as a catering manager, Jackson devised the perfect recipe for success: Entrée Metropolitan. He
created his Washington, D.C-base Catering and Event Planning firm in 2008 to cater to the
needs of those who wanted great food with panache. The mission is simple to “make my love
for food contagious.” Today, Entrée Metropolitan enjoys catering to Grammy award-winning
artists, politicians, the nation’s elite and food lovers throughout the country and abroad.
Jackson’s rise through the culinary ranks began at the world famous Ben’s Chili Bowl in the
nation’s capital. As a line cook, he learned first-hand through sweat equity what it takes to make it work. He catapulted into food and
beverage management at the 4-star Park Hyatt in Washington, D.C. Under the tutelage of acclaimed Chef Brian McBride, Jackson
learned the secrets to the highest standards in food. Jackson has also done an internship at Marcus Samuelsson’s Red Rooster
restaurant in Harlem, New York.
Jackson prides himself on being self-taught but believes great chefs are always learning. So, his training continues. He has studied at
The French Culinary Institute and Institute of Culinary Education, both in New York City.
His passion for food has translated into food writing. On the 1st annual National Food Day, Jackson introduced his food adventures
with the blog, “Foodies and Fatties.”
Not only have his clients taken note of Jackson's culinary innovations, but he has quickly become a renowned speaker in the hospitality
industry and has already been featured on the Fox and Friends Morning Show, Neighborhood Chef and ABC’s The Chew. His
accomplishments include “Crowd Favorite” at The Travel Channel’s Fiery Foods Challenge and winner of the DC local competition of
Top Chef for Love Night Club. He has traveled extensively in the U.S. and around the globe from Tokyo to Belgium capturing the food
experience to share with other foodies and fatties.
