Hello, I'm Le Cordon Bleu Chef Steven, the creator of Butter N Thyme.
Our goal is to share easy-to-follow, step-by-step recipes and cooking demonstrations.
As a Texas chef, I emphasize using local and seasonal ingredients complemented by South American flavors, all prepared with classic French culinary techniques.
This approach allows us to highlight Texas's rich bounty while incorporating vibrant South American elements, creating dishes that are refined yet deeply rooted in local tradition.
Butter N Thyme Is A Culinary Resource For Everyone
Our website covers a wide range of topics, including recipes, types of posts, culinary research, culinary techniques, how-to cooking demonstrations, and food science.

When it comes to food, everyone is right. Everyone likes what they like, yet keeping an open mind to the possibilities of next-level culinary learning is key to growth as a home cook👨🍳

Also,
Our In-Depth Culinary Articles cover food in great detail, each providing content and resources that clarify data.
In culinary school, our Chef told us,
"You did not come to culinary school to be perfect; you came to fail and learn from each mistake. Make those mistakes, and you will become the chef you desire."

🗈 Butter N Thyme Testimonials
I've been cooking roast chicken most of my life. A friend introduced me to this lovely website and insisted I try the Roast Chicken Recipe and technique. I'm 74 years old and can state this is the best roast chicken recipe of my lifetime. Thank You! ~

Thank you, Butter-n-Thyme, for the Ultimate Fudge Brownies recipe. I made these and took them to work. The entire office has been talking about how great they were. I didn't tell them the secret ingredient. 🙂 ~

What Is Chef Pennington's Favorite Food?
Answer: BBQ. The reason is that it takes the longest to become a proficient or semi-professional pit master.
It involves hundreds of hours of testing, refining, adjusting, and spending quality time with people who share our passion and desire for excellence.
