Earlier today, Chicago Firefighter John Joyce (a friend of mine, and this site) made an appearance on Chicago’s Very Own WGN TV as their “Firehouse Chef of the Week.” John isn’t just a Firefighter and fine cook – he’s also the frontman of POOCHAMUNGAS, a kindie rock band that hopefully you’ve heard me talk about… and if not, go grab their new album, BLOCK PARTY, right now! Check out John’s appearance below, along with his recipe for some tasty turkey chili… which oddly enough, isn’t far off from what we make here at Rock Father HQ. Chicago style!
