Main Street Meats chef de cuisine Jonathan Ferguson, 42, calls Mobile, Alabama, home, but his native Louisiana is perhaps where he developed a knack for making good gumbo since his family wasn't big on cooking.

"Not at all," he says. "I come from a family of lawyers, engineers and educators."

Read Anne Braly's Q&A with Ferguson at the link in our bio.
