Jason Santos
Chef / Owner
Jason divides his time as owner and chef at Buttermilk & Bourbon, a New Orleans influenced restaurant with as much character and charm as the city itself, and at Citrus & Salt, a coastal Mexican restaurant in Boston’s Fort Point. His latest restaurant, ButterBird, in Watertown's Arsenal Yards, features an array of breakfast and fried chicken sandwiches with a touch of Jason’s signature twists.
Santos is also a recurring guest on the Today Show, the CBS Early Show, the CBS television show The Talk, and subsequent seasons of Hell's Kitchen. Santos also appears regularly on the popular Paramount TV hit show, Bar Rescue- where he rehabilitates failing restaurants and bars as a restaurant consultant alongside Jon Taffer.
You can also catch Jason this winter/spring on Fox’s hit show Hell’s Kitchen alongside Chef Gordon Ramsay as his sous chef for the Blue Team.
In March of 2019, Santos debuted two cookbooks - Buttermilk & Bourbon as well as Simple Fancy - both available on Amazon.
