Greg Upshur
"The Mustang Chef"

The Mustang Chef currently works in the private sector of the food industry. He cooks almost every day ,away and at home.

Mornings are spent kicking around his old farm just doing whatever needs to be done. He likes to write, workout and do research on a number of subjects.

When things go just right ,he gets together with his sons and produces a Food video. The videos are based on ideas from his recent collections of essays called ,"The Path To Magic."

Starting to cook at the age of fourteen,the Mustang hitchhiked to work.
He has since then won national awards for his cooking.

'Always a student" , The Mustang Chef considers himself lucky. "I've dodged alot of bullets and have picked myself up out of the dust a few times, I 'm not done yet."

With this collection of videos ,we hope The Mustang Chef and Sons will
be a diversion from the reality of your day.

I currently cook every day.

If you think it's about the car, you are wrong. The "Mustang" Chef got his name "Mustang" from the military slang jargon term by working his way up through the ranks through hard work & time.
But he does like to drive cool cars too!
