I bought "The BBQ Diet" thinking it was a simple cookbook, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out it is so much more. It has a wealth of information on the history of mankind's evolution and diet. Author George Prior provides an in-depth explanation of why a meat heavy diet is beneficial and how our current carb heavy diets are detrimental in the long run.Originally intended to be a gift for my grilling husband, I found myself using it frequently. I'm a BBQ novice and this book taught me all the basics. Types of BBQ and grilling techniques, from the use of charcoal vs wood, and the use of cedar planks are all covered. Reading this book has really boosted my confidence as a "backyard chef".The recipes are delicious and every sauce and marinade I've tried has been a hit. I highly recommend "The BBQ Diet" to anyone who ever plans on firing up the grill, and wants to lose a few pounds in the process.
