About Tre Wilcox: Chantal Cookware spokesperson and nationally-known chef Tre Wilcox began his culinary career at the age of 17 as a prep cook at a fast food restaurant. That simple job, which he took to raise money to fix his car, revealed what would become a lifelong passion for cooking and the restaurant business. As chef de cuisine at Abacus in Dallas, Tre continued wowing the local food media. In 2003, he received the “Best Food and Wine Pairings” distinction for KRLD’s Restaurant Week, which led to a scholarship for continuing education at the Culinary Institute of America in Greystone, California. He also earned two consecutive nominations for the James Beard Foundation’s Rising Star chef.

Despite all the accolades from the restaurant industry, TV offered Tre his biggest break. He rose to national fame as a contestant on Bravo’s third season of Top Chef, featuring 15 of the country's most impressive rising chefs. During the show and again as sous chef on Food Network’s Iron Chef, he demonstrated not only his culinary skill and passion for good food but a fun-loving persona that has resulted in additional national TV opportunities and public recognition.

In 2008, Tre left Abacus to pursue his own restaurant and work as a private chef. Most recently, he linked with Houston-based Chantal Cookware. Because of Tre’s personal commitment to health and exercise, his endorsement of Chantal’s acclaimed Copper Fusion cookware is a perfect fit as the line is recognized as a healthy alternative to non-stick pans. In addition to his spokesperson duties, Tre frequently teaches cooking classes throughout the country that reflect his considerable creative skills and passion for contemporary international fine dining. Currently Tre is working towards his long-time dream of owning his own restaurant.
