Joe Gallagher Jr.
Joe Gallagher Jr., also known as Chef Giuseppe, is the founder of Apastioli
Specialty Foods and the author of From Bars to Jars: A Saucy Redemption Story.
After hitting rock bottom and finding faith, Joe turned his life around—starting with
a single jar of homemade sauce and a walk into a Charleston Piggly Wiggly. What
he discovered wasn’t just personal redemption, but a hidden demand across the
South: people were craving real, authentic Italian food with integrity.
