5.0 out of 5 stars Hot Stuff, too!, January 23, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Great Firehouse Cooks of Texas (Paperback)
I stole the above title because it's perfect. I've only had time to try a few recipes, but so far, so good (agree with the above recommendation for the Jambalaya on page 150). It's the stories of the firemen that make this book so special-like the stories about the chefs in Top Texas Chefs: Favorite Recipes. Great gift idea!

This review is from: Great Firehouse Cooks of Texas (Paperback)
This is a great cookbook but a lot more. The stories of the firefighters, their families, how they feel about their jobs, were funny, moving, inspirational, and more. Get this one even if you never intend to enter another kitchen. (The receipes are great, too. Check out page 150, for sure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jammin' Jambalaya, January 23, 2001
By 
Eclectico (Dallas, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Great Firehouse Cooks of Texas (Paperback)
I actually got this book because of the jambalaya recipe that I tasted at a party. As it was cooking, I read the accompanying writeup on the fireman who gave the recipe and ended up reading the entire book. I thought the stories of the fireman added a nice touch. Recently I gave a copy to a firefighter friend of mine and he was delighted (which was definitely a first). There needs to be a "More Firehouse Cooks", so I'll have a Christmas present for him next year.
