Alabama News Center — Alabama’s own Bryson McGlynn is enjoying life as the new Master Chef Junior winner

By: Michael Tomberlin

Alabama’s newest culinary star is ready to enjoy the opportunities created by his new-found fame – now that he’s finished sixth grade.

“We’ve done a lot of interviews but we haven’t really gone a lot of places. We’re trying to go with the flow,” Bryson McGlynn told Alabama News Center in an interview May 24, along with his dad, Mike McGlynn. “I just finished up my school year yesterday, so it’s going to be nice to be able to focus on this.”

“This” is all of the attention and opportunities created by his victory in the Master Chef Junior season nine finale. Though he won in December, Bryson and his family had to keep it a secret until it aired on Fox May 20. Not only did he claim the title and the trophy, but he also won $100,000 and a set of new appliances.
