Summary: The Book for Grilling Beginners or Masters
Comment: Steve Raichlen is the King of grilling and in his book "How to Grill", Steve covers everything you
need to know about grilling. Written so that even someone who has never grilled can start from
purchasing a grill to in-depth tips and techniques that even a backyard grilling warrior can learn
from.

The book includes sections on the different types of grills, heat sources and
grilling techniques such as smoking, direct and in-direct grilling. It also lists all the tools and
accessories that you will need to get started.

Thoughtfully laid out the book's recipe
sections is carefully divided into catergories. Contents of book include getting started, beef and
veal, pork and sausages, lamb, chicken and more, fish, shellfish, vegetables, desserts, rubs,
sauces, and condiments and grills and gear.

This book is not just a cookbook but an
entire book of grilling know-how. It's a great addition to any kitchen library.

Summary: Great Book
Comment: I bought this as a Father's Day gift, and my dad has grilled out every saturday since! The book
kills two birds with one stone with its great cooking techniques and recipes. The pictures are great
and very helpful, and the directions are very simple and easy to understand. The food tastes great!
Some of the recipes take a good hour or two to prep though, so make sure to read through the whole
procedure before starting.

Summary: Beware 18 inch grill owners! Adapt or die!
Comment: This a a great book for creative grill masters. One caveat: if you own an 18 inch weber kettle, be
sure to adapt the coal amounts for your smaller grill. Otherwise you will fry your food faster than
a hyper-active pyro. The author never bothers to mention how much fuel to use for various sizes of
charcoal grills. Not once in the entire book. So, be carefull grill-jockeys and adjust down or up as
needed. Otherwise, yum.

Summary: textbook example of what a book can and should be
Comment: Exciting, excellent, effective. If you like cooking, learning how to do things, or are just visual
by nature (most people are) you will most certainly enjoy this one. I have perused all of this
authors books and have enjoyed his commentary; this book takes the cake (and has a double layer of
frosting on top). If the new version of the Barbecue Bible was illustrated even semi-close to this
book Stephen would have another huge hit.

sauces, rubs, and marinades. It is just a fantastic book for people of all levels of experience in
grilling. It should be on every grillers book shelf.
