In his early career, Hearon worked at The Avenue restaurnat in Austin, the Rattlesnake Club in Denver, and worked as a sous–chef at Mark Miller's Coyote Café in Santa Fe.[12][13][14] In 1988, he moved to the West Coast, in order to take over the existing Corona Bar and Grill in San Francisco, California.[12]

Hearon appeared on the series, Julia Child: Lessons with Master Chefs, season 1.[2]

Julia Child named Hearon as one of the 30 most promising young chefs in the United States in 1987.[12][15] In 1994, Hearon was awarded "Best New Chef" at Food & Wine magazine.[16]

His former restaurant Rose Pistola was awarded the James Beard Foundation Award for "Best New Restaurant" in 1997.[17] In 2016, the San Francisco Chronicle voted LuLu as one of the most important restaurants of the San Francisco Bay Area, for their usage of new trends including the beginning of using communal table, serving family-style dishes, for being located in SoMa neighborhood (which was once a desolate area), and their use of a wood oven in the center of the dining room.[4]
