Looking for a way to serve amazing food for Thanksgiving and still spend time with your family? Hire a Personal Chef through HireAChef.com from the United States Personal Chef Association and enjoy your friends, family, and football.

Some families will spend Thanksgiving morning watching parades.  Others will spend the day watching sports.  Still others will spend a leisurely day with their families.  Yet another group will be slaving away in the kitchen.  What separates the first three from the last?  The first three hired a personal chef through HireAChef.com

“Spend the holiday with your family and let the personal chef do all of the work in the kitchen”

“A personal chef will develop a custom menu for your Thanksgiving dinner, do the shopping and then cook the meal in your home,” says Larry Lynch, president of the United States Personal Chef Association, which hosts the largest membership of personal chefs in North America available through www.HireAChef.com. “Spend the holiday with your family and let the personal chef do all of the work in the kitchen,”, adds Lynch.  Better yet, when finished, a personal chef cleans up the kitchen, leaving nothing behind but the delicious aroma of home-cooked meals.

“One key element of holiday cooking that is often neglected by consumers is food safety,” added Mr. Lynch. “Food borne illness won’t just kill a holiday, it kills thousands of people every year and is especially risky for consumers preparing big and complex meals. Personal Chefs listed on HireAChef.com have undergone specific training in food safety and hold either a certificate or certification.  You can trust your food will be cooked safely and properly when you hire a Personal Chef.”
