What this record means
The record shows that the mark “MASTER CHEF” is dead because the applicant, Creekstone arms Premium Beef, LLC, failed to respond to an Office action and the application was abandoned on February 19, 2005. The mark was filed on May 6, 2003 for class 029, covering fresh, frozen and further processed beef, with first use in April 2001. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, but it does create a closest concern for any new mark that seeks to use “MASTER CHEF” in the same or a related food‑processing context. The prosecution history shows a final refusal in July 2004 and an abandonment notice in February 2005, with no subsequent maintenance filings. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the dead status reduces the risk, but the specific food‑processing goods still present a notable concern.
