Hi, im new at the Chef stuff, only two boxes away from master chef.
I got a few questions though.
1) What do i need to become a 12 points master chef?
2) When is your food assembly capped?
3) Where do you guys get your BE stuff?
Thanks for answering my questions

1) Not really sure what your asking. You already said your 2 boxes away, so all you need to get is those 2 boxes.
2) Food assembly means almost nothing to chefs. The cost to do another experiment if we fail assembly is minor to the overall costs of producing a factory run of a certain food.
3) Quite a few people have either gotten BE on one of their toons or have friends make schematics for them. You can buy them from BEs as well, although at least the last time I was looking they weren't that easy to find. The profit margin on them is very low compared to a lot of other professions and therefore a lot of BEs don't like makeing them(I know I sure wouldn't if I was just a BE).

1) Well, you get 10 points to experiment with at Master. The additional two points come from Food Experimentation skill tapes. You get an additional point for every +10 to Food Experimentation, and skill tape bonuses are capped at +25 for an entire outfit. Experimentation tapes seem to go for 100-500k per point, depending on how large of a bonus is on the tape, and your particular server's economy. You can get a chef crafter's apron that gives +5 experimentation / +5 assembly as a random reward schematic in the Jabba's theme park, these generally go for 100-300k on most servers, so are definitely a good investment.
2) Food assembly at Master Chef is 100, and you can get skill tapes / crafter's apron to give up to +25 bonus. This skill determines the type of success on initial assembly only, it doesn't affect experimentation at all. At Master chef, I get Great successes on assembly 95% of the time (with the occasional crit fail, and sometimes other success types). An amazing success doesn't improve your starting point, so +assembly doesn't really get you anything. I consider the identical results from Great and Amazing assembly a bug (which also comes up with a couple other crafting professions), but I haven't been able to get a dev confirmation one way or the other.
3) From Bio-engineers. 
There's a BE vendor list broken down by galaxy over on the BE board, or you can check the planetary vendor list. BE's are a little inconsistent with what category they register their vendors in, you may want to check "Pets/pet supplies" or"components" for a starting list.
