BRIEF: Watch Jenny McCarthy start a fire as she preps her Portillo's sandwich

March 16--Jenny McCarthy and husband Donnie Wahlberg keep their love hot with actual flames.

The couple appeared on "Good Morning America" Wednesday to discuss their A show "Donnie Loves Jenny." "GMA" played a clip from the third season, slated to premiere 9 p.m. Wednesday, that showed McCarthy helping Wahlberg top a Portillo's beef sandwich.

"Best beef sandwiches in Chicago," McCarthy declares before the sandwich wrapping catches fire.

The new season will show McCarthy and Wahlberg settling into life in St. Charles. The couple got married there in August 2014.

"It's a whole different lifestyle for us and all the different things we run into in this small town really create a lot of funny moments for us," said Wahlberg, who grew up in the Boston area. McCarthy was raised in Evergreen Park and on the Southwest Side.

The couple also announced on "GMA" that Wahlberg will perform a solo show June 2 at the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles for McCarthy's autism charity Generation Rescue. Tickets are scheduled to go on sale April 2, McCarthy said.

"We'll probably shoot (the performance) for the show," Wahlberg said.
