Last night on The Pop-Up! Presents: The Legendary Dope Show, host Elisha Michelle sat down with Joelicia “JoeCooks” Perry, the chef and owner behind JoeCooks206.

Based in Federal Way, Washington, Perry brought her signature "made with love" philosophy to life, blending soul-food roots with vibrant global fusions, local seafood, and custom catering menus. Tune in as they dive into her culinary journey, her community work across the Pacific Northwest, and what's cooking next for her Black- and woman-owned business. Plus, she pulled up with her viral wing boil—it’s like a grab boil but with chicken!

Catch The Pop-Up! Presents: The Legendary Dope Show every Monday live at 7 p.m. on the Converge Media YouTube channel.
