Mike Newton, Cowboy Chef

Native ranching Texan, can’t rope for s***, loves fine food and brown liquor, while enjoying a sunset with good people. When not working Angus cattle or tending to the ranch, Newton is in the kitchen creating quality, soulful food with a cowboy twist.  

The idea of going to MasterChef really was an idea that began simmering over a year ago, after a friend of mine encouraged me to try out for a cooking show on another network. Well, I took heed, threw caution to the wind, and hightailed it toward the application process. My first thought was how to actually stand out? As if the big custom-made cowboy hat did not do it for me.
