More from the press release:

“Hired Guns” bring top talent like Bourgeois to town to flex their creative muscles. The guest chefs create dishes to serve alongside the restaurant’s regularly featured items, sharing their signature flavors and personalities with restaurant guests. Featured items that Bourgeois will prepare include barbecue gulf shrimp with beer butter and grilled garlic toast, and Blue Smoked duck ham with soft-boiled duck eggs, duck skin cracklins, baby mustard greens and Creole mustard vinaigrette.

“I grew up surrounded by vibrant Southern food prepared by two parents who had a passion for living off the land and cooking with fresh, seasonal ingredients,” says Bourgeois. “It's an honor to cook at Gunshow, and I'm looking forward to sharing my south Louisianan roots with an Atlanta crowd.”

The final "Hired Guns" dinner event of the year will take place Nov. 17-18 with Joe Kindred of Kindred in Davidson, North Carolina.
