Sheriff Esther Winchester the new bosses from the Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course, fought during High-Noon Hoopla. She is the first and only shoot-'em-up boss in the DLC. She is the guardian of the Western Plains of DLC Island and the keeper of the Desert Limes, a key ingredient in Chef Saltbaker's Wonder Tart Recipe.

She has the usual western apparel for cowboys and cowgirls, but she is also a cow herself. She has a puff of curly hair. She wears a light blue hat with a pink flower as decoration, a red neckerchief, yellow shirt, pale yellow gloves with tassels, a red belt with a golden buckle, light blue trousers with white woolly chaps, and a pair of yellow boots with spurs.

At the beginning of the boss fight, Esther pops her head out of a Saloon on wheels that is moving away from Cuphead, Mugman, or Ms. Chalice. She will periodically switch from popping out of the window on the second floor to the front doors of the saloon on the first floor. She fires snake oil and will occasionally lasso a giant cactus that takes up half the screen. Once she has taken 25% damage, she will remove the roof of her saloon and activate a giant vacuuming device that will suck up her saloon. The second phase will involve her using her spurs to roll backwards while sucking up money, gold, and badges from the left side of the screen into her vacuum. After a while she will eject several safes containing the collected treasure that will fall from the top of the screen and break release gold bars in random directions. At 50% health, Esther's vacuum will malfunction and such her body inside of it before exploding, revealing that she has been turned into a mass of beef sausage links shaped like a humanoid. Esther will begin running backwards, shooting steaks at the player while cans of acme beans fly across the screen shooting their contents either up or down. In her final phase, Esther will hop into a tin of Prairie Dogs. The Can will bust open an A pair of infinitely long sausage links will begin extending from the can, slowly scissoring across the screen. The planes must fly through the parts of the links with no sausages. They must also avoid the peppers that Esther's likeness will occasionally shoot in a fan pattern.
