Shelley Sikora launches food blog

Arizona restaurateur and chef Shelley Sikora, who launched Bobby Q steakhouse and barbecue in Phoenix, has started a food blog, Back Pocket Recipes.

Sikora and her ex-husband operated dozens of Bobby McGee’s restaurants in eight states. She later launched Juice Works smoothie bars, which eventually were bought by TCBY.

Sikora has published two cookbooks – “An Italian Affair” (2002) and “100 Tantalizing Ways to Make Tomatoes & Mozzarella” (2006) – and hosted her own TV cooking show, “Home Plates,” on KPHO Channel 5.
