Full Description
We’re looking for a Legendary Lone Star Chef. Could it be you?

You’re an experienced chef, with your Basic Food Hygiene Certificate. A Certificate in Professional Cookery, or a City and Guilds qualification is a plus.

And of course, you’re a top team player, comfortable training and mentoring new talent, and ready to jump in and help at the drop of a hat.

But most of all, you’re all about serving up flawless food to our guests, sending them home full of delicious Lone Star classics, and delighted with their experience.

We’ve spent 30 years giving folks legendary experiences, and we don’t settle for anything less than the best when it comes to our Lone Star Crew.

So, if you’re the best chef you know, we’re mighty keen to hear from you.
