Spotlight: Eduardo Garcia

Eduardo Garcia is known as the "bionic chef" because he has a prosthetic left hand and forearm due to a 2011 hunting accident in which he was electrocuted. Also a cancer survivor, he underwent more than 20 surgeries but eventually regained his ability to cook. Garcia is the co-founder of Montana Mex, a company that sells sauces, seasonings, and avocado oil from the state in which he lives. He is also an occasional triathlete and motivational speaker. A documentary about him, "Charged: The Eduardo Garcia Story," was released in 2018. Garcia was one of the judges on the February 25 episode of Chopped. Despite his setbacks, he has created his own recipe for success. For more information, go to https://www.cowboysindians.com/2020/02/charged-journey-to-recovery/.
