Today was the first time since he died I have watched one of his videos. I had a hard time watching I really enjoyed watching him and he even responded to me directly a few times. He was one of a kind.
You gotta appreciate the rags hanging off the stove doors, the sheet pans covering the Bain, and the burners on full blast at all times, and how Tommy always just appears in the background at some point. Love it though. I'd love to be next to you on the line Jack.
You are the first person I have ever seen besides my mother who doesn't fry their meatballs. This is exactly how she made them, cooking them in the hot sauce. They are the best ever! Just awesome!
Love ya Chef Jack!!! RIP. You left a great legacy with these culinary videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us "home cooks"....God bless you and your family.
I love watching Jack. Best chef on RUclips by a long way. He’s real and genuine and makes things that anyone would love to make and eat at home. Not some glammed up pretentious celeb chef that nobody can relate to. Keep up the great work Daddy Jack.
6:45 gave me goosebumps.. The sound of the Train in the distance, the hum of the kitchen, atmosphere, and rolling delicious meatballs. This is what the internet is best for :)
Agree with the way you put the meatballs directly in the gravy! Hung out with a friend as a youngster and his Sicilian grandma did it that way but added raisins.
I have been watching Jack cook for a few months now and all I can say is "DANG". If I lived within 50 miles of his restaurant I would make a weekly trip. This guy is a fantastic chef. I will definitely be trying his recipes. All I can say is DANG! in the best possible way. Kudos to chef Jack.

Love daddy jack. Love how everyone hangs out and eats. So friendly. Love the small kitchen. Amazing. I would so love to eat there. Please be healthy daddy jack. thats it daddy.
What is beautiful about Sicilian cooking is innovation. Each village having it's own history and cuisine. Your meatball, (dumplings) are like my mother made. perfect!
Best MBs ever. I added frozen butter to M B recipe and kept test the same. Enjoy your feats of feast and all your special guests. Keep up the cooking We all love the Blues
Such a great cook jack and looks like an absolute gentleman the way he welcomes his guest to try a dish he’s just made. Love what food does for people, it’s the glue to all the party’s and entertainment that we do. Love watching and hope to see lots more of the great food.
Thank you for the recipes Daddy Jack..we always made fried meatballs here in the South, but yours look awesome. Will definitely try. You have encouraged me to watch all your videos!
... a trick I was taught while I worked, by a greek chef, in a restaurant ... use a "ice cream scooper do make all the meatball the same size. I like to do the same, cook the meatballs in the sauce ( that makes it "red gravy" !!!) in small batches ... but if you are planning to serve/plate a lot of people, then you have to "fry" the meatballs. Save the 'drippin's" and add that to the sauce too.
Awesome job on the Meatballs Jack.my X used to make Meatballs and sauce on sunday as well.That also makes a killer Meatball Sandwhich.Thanks for sharing and good luck on your new place.your an awesome cook and have a very down to earth personality .
Daddy Jack, you’re truly an inspiration. I hope to be able to visit your restaurant soon. Your down to earth approach is sooo refreshing. Love watching your videos. God Bless
I really enjoy your videos Jack. You laid back style and approach to cooking really make them fun to watch. Look forward to trying your restaurant next time we're in the area. Keep up the good work!
I used to make a special trip out your way, being a Carpenter, to buy tools at Coastal Tool on Bank St. !!!!Are they still there ? What a great place to buy tools in the day ! When things where good and construction was booming !!! But they didn't sell Meatballs !!! Lol !!! TY Big Guy !!! Thats one hell of a Meatball !!!! 😁🖒✌🕇💕
You are the man .... Make me miss the restaurant business .... Perfect food that you do ......show us the pizza art in your future videos and god bless......
I make my meatballs similar but I don't use a food processer and I add mint and grated romano cheese. It's my Sicilian Grandmother's recipe from the old country. It comes out fantastic!
You can absolutely fry the meatballs before putting them in sauce. Just a quick browning of the outside to give them a nice crust. You don’t want to cook them thru. Let sauce do that. You then pour off most of the oil then deglaze pan with white wine. Pour this into sauce. These 2 tips will significantly elevate your dish.
Jack, I had never seen or heard of you until today; and, I've already subscribed, and spent over three hours watching your videos. I enjoy your down-to-earth approach, your love for preparing exciting recipes, and your lack of ego. It's also great to see you share the finished dishes with your employees and friends. When will you open-up a Chaplin's in the Chicago suburbs? We need you here! Best wishes, and keep cooking! --Ron (Aurora, IL)
This man has made me a a chef,,,I I now cook at home and never order food again thanks Jacki rest in peace ,, I will always be grateful that all your recipes,,,

Yup a teriffic guy
Rest in peace big guy! You were so very unique! The world lost a good thing !
Jack gives a whole new meaning to “employee meals”. I’ve never actually seen him cook for a customer
I think he typically does videos between services or before.
I would like to see a video of line service though now that you say that.
Fuck you
I love watching Jack. Best chef on RUclips by a long way. He’s real and genuine and makes things that anyone would love to make and eat at home. Not some glammed up pretentious celeb chef that nobody can relate to. Keep up the great work Daddy Jack.
I love this guy....so sad he's not here no more. RIP man, you are a fabulous chef!

“Get a couple spoons Tommy..” classic!
I feel like a kid in a candy store watching this guy cook. This is how food is to be prepared and loved
Love your cooking, you make it look easy.RIP!!
Agree with the way you put the meatballs directly in the gravy! Hung out with a friend as a youngster and his Sicilian grandma did it that way but added raisins.
" I don't want to gross you out here we're cookin" Priceless!!!😂 wish this was my neighborhood. I would eat there every day!
The big man sure can cook! Good stuff Jack!
Love this guy and I wish all the best to his daughters and family
