CBN.com – Who knew that a kid working in the local barbeque restaurant would find a home in the celebrity culinary scene and become one of the most efficient and knowledgeable personal chefs in the world?
Chef Jerome Brown's clientele includes superstar athletes like Shaquille O’Neal, Nancy Kerrigan, Mike Bibby and Brevin Knight; Hollywood ’s elite such as Priscilla Presley; famous politicians like Colin Powell, and Carl Gustaf (the king of Sweden) Grammy-winning singers, Master P. and Byron Cage and Mega-church minister Bishop Eddie Long, among others.
As a boy, Jerome Brown began his career at Gardeners BB-Q in his Rocky Mountain, North Carolina, neighborhood. After high school Jerome joined the Army to serve his country in battle and his fellow soldiers in the kitchen. After dedicating nearly seven years to his country, Jerome decided to take his chances with a single culinary opening at Orlando’s Walt Disney World resort.
Jerome’s odds where 400-1, but that didn’t stop him. It’s that type of attitude that not only allowed him to beat the odds and the other 399 applicants, but also allowed him to maintain a long, profitable career as a celebrity chef.
Jerome currently resides in North Carolina and is serving as the personal chef to Charlotte Bobcats starting point guard, Brevin Knight. He is often hired to help celebrities shed a desired amount of weight in a short amount of time and is recognized for always meeting his clients' goals inside the specific time limit.
Most recently, just before last year's NBA playoffs, the most powerful force in the NBA, Shaquille O'Neill, approached Jerome with a goal to loose 20 pounds. Not only did Jerome help Shaq achieve his goal in the allotted time, but the result was an impressive 25 pounds off of Shaq’s massive frame giving the superstar the stamina to get through the grueling stress of the playoffs and, ultimately, helping Miami win its first NBA championship!
To every family for which he works, Chef Rome, as he's known, is more than a chef. He soon becomes a friend and earns a tremendous amount of trust. His high profile clientele are always satisfied and entertained keeping him in high demand in the celebrity chef world. Recently, though, he has another dream to fulfill.
People struggling with weight issues, aspiring athletes trying to gain muscle, obese individuals who don't know where to start or people simply interested in learning how to eat healthier will benefit from Chef Rome's expertise and an uncanny ability to alter someone's diet based on their body type, work schedule, and lifestyle.
Now, Chef Rome is ready to share his celebrity secrets with the world. He is the author of the popular book, Cooking with Rome and that is exactly what the world will be doing soon when Chef Jerome Brown begins his most recent adventure: his own television show.
The TV show, Cooking with Rome, will be as unique as its namesake is, combining Brown's magnetic personality with his exceptionable knowledge of ingredients and food preparation.
A caring friend will be there to pray with you in your time of need.
