Meet The Real Man Behind The Brand

You know you love the delicious flavors of Chef Boyardee, but did you know that behind this real great food is a real great chef? From his humble beginnings in Piacenza, Italy to heading a food empire, Chef Boyardee - born Hector Boiardi - changed forever the way we enjoy Italian food. Good old-fashioned entrepeneurship never tasted so good.

It all began in 1915 when Chef Hector landed his first job in the Big Apple. By age 17, he led the kitchen at New York's Tony Plaza Hotel. In 1924, Chef Hector and his new wife, Helen, opened the restaurant Il Giardino d'Italia, where his Italian cooking became the talk of the town. People stood outside for hours, waiting for a taste.

With his brothers Mario and Paul, Chef Hector started the Chef Boyardee Company in 1928. The name was spelled phonetically to keep American tongues from twisting on the Italian pronunciation. He invented a meatball machine that's still used today. Before long his products were so popular, advertisements were made in several languages. When Chef Hector retired in 1978, he remained one of the most recognizable faces on TV, thanks to the legacy of his advertisements.

In 2000, Con Agra purched the company that Chef Hector and his brothers made famous. Chef Hector's tradition of innovation continues today with new recipes that feature Chef Boyardee as an ingredient.
