our background

Chelsi and Sean Lemaster are a husband and wife duo who began Lemaster Family Kitchen, LFK, with the goal of making everyday home cooking affordable and easy.  Sean has worked all of his life in restaurants and bars in positions from busboy to manager. Although spending most of his time as a bartender, Sean has always taken a serious love for food and the art of cooking!  Working for several great Chicago chefs, Sean always had one eye on the kitchen and picked up as much knowledge and know how as he could. Since Chelsi spent her time during the day working with people with disabilities, she was always happy to come home and test Sean’s creations and keep him humble after a long day’s work. After experimenting over the course of a couple of years, Chelsi and Sean developed four seasonings that they just had to share with the world. They wanted everyone to be able to make all kinds of international meals with just four pouches of goodness and whatever was in the refrigerator or pantry.

 

We deseed and grind all our chiles from whole to insure consistency and freshness.
