Brush Creek Ranch, named among the Top 20 Resorts in the Mountain West in Condé Nast Traveler's 2023 Reader's Choice Awards, announced the appointment of Prosenjit "Ricky" Biswas as Executive Chef. Continuing to grow and enhance the Ranch's already extensive farm-to-table cuisine, Chef Biswas will oversee all culinary functions across the Ranch's three luxury properties - Lodge & Spa, Magee Homestead, and French Creek - in addition to The Farm at Brush Creek which is home to the award-winning, fine-dining restaurant, Cheyenne Club. Chef Biswas comes to the Ranch with more than a decade of culinary experience at top-rated resorts and Michelin-star restaurants around the world, as well as being a finalist for the San Pellegrino Young Chef of the World USA 2022-23.

"We are thrilled to welcome Chef Biswas to the Brush Creek Ranch team," said Michael Williams, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Ranch. "His experience, strong sense of teamwork, passion, and creativity will provide guidance and inspiration to our culinary teams as we continue to provide extraordinary epicurean experiences to our guests."

As Executive Chef at Brush Creek Ranch, Biswas will develop and maintain all menus and recipes across each of the Ranch's properties; oversee daily food preparation and safety regulations; create excitement, inspiration, and direction for all back-of-house and front-of-house food and beverage team members; and will be responsible for establishing a culture with continuous learning and training that emphasizes high quality, fresh ingredients utilizing seasonal techniques.

Chef Biswas was trained in France in classic French Cuisine under Bocuse d'Or winner and a Meilleur Ouvrier de France champion Chef Franck Putelat in his Two-Star Michelin restaurant.

Chef Biswas holds a Masters Degree in Hospitality and Tourism and a Bachelors in Hospitality from Edinburgh Napier University. He also has diplomas in business administration and baking and pastry arts. Chef Biswas has earned the Certified Sous Chef (CSC) credential from the World Association of Chefs' Societies. He is a finalist for the San Pellegrino Young Chef of the World USA 2022-23, a prestigious competition that recognizes the talent and creativity of young chefs. He received recognition for the Best Creative Dish in the 2023 Rare Steak Champion.

Coming to Wyoming was an easy transition for Chef Biswas, as he thrives in quieter atmospheres where he can really focus on his team and the cuisine de terroir.

"My goal is to bring innovation, excellence, and delight to every dish I prepare, and to share my love of food with others," said Chef Ricky Biswas.

Organized by Chef Biswas, Brush Creek Ranch will host a Friends of James Beard Dinner event for the first time ever on August 16th & 17th, 2024. This event will benefit the James Beard Foundation, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to celebrate, support, and elevate the people behind America's food culture, and champion a standard of good food that is anchored in talent, equity, and sustainability. In addition, Brush Creek Ranch offers a unique lineup of wine and culinary events all year long.
