100 Grilling Recipes You Can't Live Without: A Lifelong Companion
At any time somewhere in the world, someone is grilling food, no matter what the season or the outdoor temperature. Count much-acclaimed cookbook authors Cheryl and Bill Jamison as grilling fanatics. In essence, this culinary collection picks the best or most favored recipes from their previous books, adds more than a dollop of different flavors from other cuisines, and serves it all up with no small amount of wit and wisdom. Appropriately enough, they begin by stating two beliefs—use open flames (for the most part) and skewer food as appetizers—then plunge into the 100 “gotta have” recipes. No country’s cooking is ignored (even though there’s a slight bias for southwestern American). And no tip is left ungiven, whether about different barbecue sauces for chicken or additional toppings for pizza. A few of the mouth-watering inclusions are margarita shrimp, blue-corn-and-green chile pizza, Cuban-style pork tenderloin, and a lobster BLT. For fire-cooking fiends and new grillers alike. --Barbara Jacobs
