“I met Big John only once at NASCAR race on a very hot Chicago day. What a wonderful chef and gracious host. I so enjoyed the tales he told that day and the ones written in his Speedway Grill book! My sympathies to his family and all who knew him well! I will be baking up some Dumpster Divin’ Pecan Bars for a Packer/49er tailgate party on Saturday at Lambeau Field. One legend deserves another. We will be with you in Spirit!”
