COMPETITION: World Burger Championship
Hey! My name is Juwan Rice, but I go by JR when I’m throwing down in the kitchen! I started cooking at the young age of 6 and since then I've grown my passion into a business! I started JRs Gourmet an emerging private dining and catering company when I was 14 years old. I've been featured in national and local publications such as River Front Times, Feast magazine, Sauce magazine, St. Louis Post Dispatch and recently on Food Network! Make sure you stay up to date with what I have going on! You never know when I’ll be cooking in your city!
