Our Story
Some kitchens build chefs. Others break them. Steve Murphy knows both sides of that truth.
A Culinary Institute of America graduate, Steve spent over a decade forging his craft in Teton Valley — through long seasons, real loss, and the quiet battles most chefs fight alone. In January 2024, he hit his lowest point. He returned with renewed purpose and a conviction that his story wasn’t over — it was just beginning.
Today, Three Peaks Catering is the expression of everything Steve has learned, lost, and rebuilt. His greatest passion? Intimate private chef dinners for 15 or fewer — where exceptional food, intentional sourcing, and genuine hospitality come together around your table.
Based in Driggs, Idaho and serving Teton Valley, Victor, and Jackson Hole, every menu is personal, every ingredient thoughtfully sourced, and every guest treated like they matter — because to Steve, they do.
To bring people together through exceptional food and personalized hospitality — wherever your table may be.
Welcome to Three Peaks Catering. We are glad you are here.

Joseph DeRosa
I’m Joe, I grew up just outside of Boston Mass and moved out west in 2015. I have become a very outdoorsy person living in Wyoming. I love to hike, paddleboard the rivers and snow board in the winters, though, I usually spend my winters in Colorado. I always say the phrase “happy to be here” which is simultaneously an expression of true gratitude, but can also he used in a slightly sarcastic way when something unexpected happens. I love good food and wine and have been to 49 of the 50 states, Alaska being the only one one remaining. I travel abroad as much as possible and like to make my whole life feel like a vacation.
Chef Brent Baldwin
Chef Brent Baldwin is originally from Cedar City, Utah, and has been living in Teton Valley for 5 years now. Brent’s palette was developed in his grandmother’s kitchen where he took an interest in helping her prepare meals for the family. Brent also gains knowledge and insight from his brother Brian who is an executive chef with Caesars entertainment in Vegas. He is mostly self taught, but has worked in restaurants including Tres Hombres, and Carver’s Steakhouse which specialized in surf and turf offerings. Brent has in-depth knowledge of wine pairings and takes pride in keeping flavors clean and bright. In his own words “The star of any dish should be the first thing you taste, but the addition of fresh herbs and spices will enhance that flavor.”
