Typically, firefighters work a 24 hour shift. This means that they have to prepare their own meals. Usually, one member of the fire company becomes the station cook, a respected and beloved position. Firefighters in general, love to eat ... in fact they have become "experts" at determining what good food is. Our attempt to make this web site a resource for firefighters as well as the public has led me to include some proven firehouse recipes that are sure to please the toughest firefighter food critic. It is our hope that firefighters will send in their best firehouse recipes. Happy cooking … better yet … happy eating!
