The focus at Jack Allen’s Kitchen is on three things—Southern hospitality, quality local ingredients, and great value. As a longtime chef in Central Texas, Jack Gilmore knows a thing or two about relationships: treat your customers like family; foster relationships with your staff to help them grow; and create meaningful connections with local farmers.

This commitment shines through in the soulful, Southern comfort food at Jack Allen’s Kitchen. Take one bite of a Jack Allen’s dish, and you can feel his love for fresh, local food. In Jack’s first cookbook, you’ll find recipes that feature the bounty of each season, engaging profiles of Central Texas farmers and purveyors, and an open invitation to pull up a chair at Jack Allen’s Kitchen, relax, and have a good time.
