Hello there, children!
"Hey, Chef."
How's it going?
"Bad."
Why bad?
~ The beginning of a typical conversation between Chef and the boys
Kiss my black ass.

Jerome "Chef" McElroy was a recurring character in South Park. He was most famous for being the South Park Elementary cafeteria chef and the boys' go-to guy for advice, which would often result into him breaking into songs about sex. He was also known to be the boys’ closest friend.

He was voiced by the late Isaac Hayes.

Personality[]

Despite his preoccupations with women and sex, Chef was generally one of the few level-headed adults in South Park. In addition to dispensing advice to "the children", Chef spoke out against outrageous ideas, and helped save South Park/the world in general from disasters on numerous occasions. However, Chef was not above performing nonsensical acts, such as buying a fancy TV that he couldn't even program.

In earlier seasons, Chef was often approached by the children when they were unfamiliar with a sexual term or practice. This happened so often that it eventually got on Chef's nerves, leading him to say, "Goddammit, children, why do I always have to be the one to teach you these things?", but went on to explain to them whatever they wanted to know anyway.

Trivia[]

  • In "Die Hippie, Die", Chef was the head of Public Safety Department. After his death, he was replaced by Glen in "Night of the Living Homeless" until he was also killed.
  • Chef had a speaking role in 55 episodes, including "The Return of Chef". After Season 6, he made fewer and fewer appearances as the show went on.
  • During the early seasons, Chef's head was never seen from a side angle, until the episode "Fourth Grade".
  • Chef is the only South Park character to appear on Adult Swim's Robot Chicken, appearing in the Celebrity MasterChef sketch, where he is voiced by Gary Anthony Williams.
  • All of his lines in "The Return of Chef" are leftovers from past seasons, this was due to Isaac Hayes leaving the show without recording any new lines.
