Chef Andrew Dwyer, Chef & Author

• 

  Andrew Dwyer is a well-known Australian adventurer, chef, cookbook author, television presenter and historian. For 25 years, he has lead expeditions into the most remote and wild regions of Outback Australia. Andrew first cooked with fire through necessity in the Outback and soon discovered that the open fire was the ultimate cooking medium, producing temperatures unobtainable in the commercial kitchen. In fact, when Andrew first cooked at the Central Market Cooking School in San Antonio, the local fire department arrived. Andrew lists Texas as his second favorite place on earth (after the Outback), and he looks forward to cooking up a storm at this year’s Festival.
