In the footage she claimed: 'I looked out the window and one of the food trucks at the food truck park near me was on fire on the corner of Chestnut St. and North LBJ. My roommates called the cops while we watched from the window.

'As I was growing up, I wasn’t very confident in cooking. It wasn’t until I started cooking for other people that it instilled confidence. They were like you should open up your restaurant. You should do this,' Ortiz explained.

He added: 'What I did find out through cooking is that it settled my anxiety, my depression.'

On the propane tank, one official told the outlet: 'There is no limit to size or quantity of propane tanks allowed.
