“As a chef and someone who values the importance of family traditions, it’s an incredible honor to celebrate the legacy of Blue Bloods with some Wahlburgers magic,” Chef Paul said. “The Reagan family’s dinners have always been about more than just the food—they’re about the connections we make around the dinner table in the same way my own family did. I’m thrilled to share these recipes with our fans, and I hope they inspire families and friends to come together, just like the Reagans do every week.”
