Dr. BBQ's Big-Time Barbecue Cookbook. A Real Barbecue Champion Brings the Tasty Recipes and Juicy Stories of the Barbecue Circuit to Your Backyard

Big Time Barbecue Cookbook Review Recommend this to anyone wanting to improve the quality of their barbeque. Outstanding compliment to any cookbook collection.

Barbecue may be our nation's most democratic food. (Think small d-democratic, as in of the people, by the people, for the people.) That's part of the problem. Egalitarian foods with elemental appeal oftentimes get short shrift. With Legends of Texas Barbecue Cookbook, Robb Walsh aims to fix that. Though rife with recipes for bohunk sausage, cowboy brisket, and chipotle-slathered ribs, the book is best read as a work of social history, a smoky portrait of the myriad peoples of Texas. By way of insightful prose and archival photos, Walsh does them proud." -John T. Edge Gourmet Magazine, June 2002

Legends of Texas Barbecue Cookbook delivers both a practical cookbook and a guided tour of Texas barbecue lore, giving readers straightforward advice right from the pit masters themselves. Their time-honored tips, along with 85 closely guarded recipes, reveal a lip-smacking feast of smoked meats, savory side dishes, and an awesome array of mops, sauces, and rubs. Their opinions are outspoken, their stories outlandish and hilarious. Fascinating archival photography looks back over more than 100 years of barbecue history, from the first turn of the century squirrel roasts to candid shots of Lyndon Johnson chowing down on a plate of ribs. A list of the best barbecue joints and a month-by-month rundown of the most influential statewide cook-offs round out this glorious celebration of barbecue found deep in the heart of Texas.

Both a practical guide to cooking home barbecue and a guided tour of Texas barbecue history, The Legends of Texas Barbecue gives readers advice straight from the pitmasters themselves on preparing 85 mouthwatering recipes for smoked and roasted meats, side dishes, sauces, mops, and rubs. In a state where the perfect rub or sauce is a closely guarded secret, author Robb Walsh has managed to persuade many amateur and professional barbecuers to offer tips to prepare the perfect smoked meat and the hottest barbecue sauce, and even some of their favourite recipes. Their outlandish stories and outspoken opinions are sometimes funny and always interesting. Archival black and white photography will look back at more than 100 years of barbecue, from the first mutton and squirrel roasts in the late 1800s, to today's modern cookoffs, where technology has changed the way the food is prepared, but can never alter the state's obsessive devotion to roasting meat in a pit. The text covers important topics like the eternal battle over whether to use sauce or not, the German and African American influences on the recipes, and the details of slow roasting. Also included are lists of the best barbecue joints and a month-by-month rundown of the most influential competitions in the Lone Star state. These folks are dead serious about their barbecue and this cookbook captures the magic of the era, the history of the region, and the sublime flavours of authenic, tasty barbecue deep in the heart of Texas. * Find out everything you ever wanted to know about roasting meat in a pit - from the history and rivalries between pitmasters to the outlandish stories and unforgettable recipes that have made Texas famous. * The author is a true expert/aficionado of Texas barbecue, is a frequent judge at competitions, and knows everyone there is to know in the barbecue biz. He has been called by NPR as the Indiana Jones of Food Writing and is a multiple James Beard award winner. This book preserves a fascinating piece of Texas history. Many of the old barbecue methods are no longer being used and some of legendary barbecue joints are starting to close their doors.

By Mary Gwynn How well do you know your grill? If Nancy Berkoff hasn't already given you enough ideas (see page 6), pick up the sumptuously illustrated Vegetarian Barbecue Cookbook by Mary Gwynn. You'll find mouthwatering

The majority of the non-dessert dishes in this cookbook are vegan, and vegan margarine can easily be substituted for butter, or cheese left out, in most of the non-vegan recipes. However, not one vegan dessert recipe is included, so after grilling up a satisfying repast, either follow Nancy's recipes in this Journal or just enjoy the abundant, delicious fruits of summer. The Vegetarian Barbecue Cookbook (ISBN

Unlike many BBQ cookbooks, this one is useful. This book deals mainly with traditional American BBQ and competition cooking. Which is fine with me because fancy fusion cooking with unobtainable ingredients, I believe, is getting a little long in the tooth. It's nice to get back to the roots of a cuisine and get a solid foundation as to how things work and where they came from. Everyone has their favorite BBQ joint and has probably wondered at one time or another how they make that awesome dry rub. Or how long does it really take to smoke a brisket right? Dr. BBQ knows and he tells all. The book was thought out very well and is absolutely loaded with recipes and literally tons of procedures for getting the best possible product from whatever smoker or grill you're using. He tackles dry rubs, wet rubs and BBQ sauces of all kinds. The mopping sauce is discussed and even gives a few nice recipes for injection marinades. Personally, I'm not a big fan of injecting butter in to my meat, but he's got a recipe for a pork butt marinade that looks worth trying. Why didn't I try them out, yet? Ain't got the time at the moment. And if I was to wait until I did to write this review, you'd be waiting far too long. The holidays are here people and you need something today, a gift that is worth your hard earned money. The book is interleaved with special pages for you to make notes to yourself, a very kind addition I thought. There's even a section towards the end that deals with recipes to invoke when you have your smoked/grilled treats left over. That's very cool just so you know. Why? Because you may not exactly use up an entire 12 lb pork shoulder every time, there's usually quite a bit left over. And it'd be nice to try something a bit different the next day, or week. As with anyone who cooks/grills/smokes/bakes, you have your own opinions and ideas. Dr. BBQ and I don't see eye to eye on a few things. He enjoys the garlic powder and that crap makes me crazy mad. It's the Devil and should be exorcised from the planet. I love oregano and he feels the same way about it as I feel about the garlic powder. So, you see it goes back and forth. I was given this copy of his book for review from the publishers and I'm not giving it up. It's all worn from me carrying to and from work all this time. I've been pouring through it, page by page, chapter by chapter, it looks worn and will probably only get worse. Even so it has it's own place on my cookbook shelf along with all my other tombs of vast knowledge. If you don't believe me, just go to your local book store and open it up. Sit down for a few minutes and pour through the dry rub recipes, read the ingredients, you know they're good. Here, let me read to you a few of the recipes and techniques available. *Backyard Championship Ribs *Friday Night Spareribs *Kansas City-Style Pork Butt *Dirty Dick's Cajun Ribeye Roast *Dr. BBQ's Big-Time Competition Brisket *Maxim Hog in the Ground *Mixed Satays with Sambal Marinade *Grilled Brie Quesadillas Interested? Yes, you should be. However, what can make or break the usability of a good cookbook are the indices. I checked 5 index entries and they match up to the page they're supposed to. There's a little glossary and the best treat of all? A comprehensive list of Cookoffs you can attend with contact information! If I had to say something nasty about the book it would be the use of the images. For whatever reason, someone chose to take black & white photographs and turn them red. So, they're red & white photographs, ick. It's just wrong and sticks out like a sore thumb, pow! You get over that pretty quickly as you read through, but I thought I'd mention it. Dr. BBQ's Big-Time Barbecue Cookbook is Meathenge approved, this means you can buy with confidence. And this concludes the review of Dr. BBQ's Big-Time Barbecue Cookbook. Good Day, Biggles

Finding A Barbecue Cookbook Is Easy. Finding One That Elicits Truly Great Results Isn't! What To Look For In The Perfect BBQ Cookbook

Once upon a time, finding a barbecue cookbook was nearly impossible. Anyone looking for a great barbecue rub recipe or other barbecue sauce recipes was pretty much out of luck. As a result, barbecue recipes were simply passed down from person to person. Today, the art of barbecuing has become far more popular. As such, it is quite easy to find a BBQ cookbook filled with many different barbecue recipes and tips for achieving the greatest flavors. Of course, great barbecue depends upon more than just a tasty barbecue sauce or a tantalizing barbecue rub recipe. There are many other factors to consider as well

When looking for the right barbecue cookbook, this information is actually more important than the recipes. After all, much of the fun of barbecuing is experimenting with different flavors in order to create the perfect sauce. While a BBQ cookbook can provide you with a good starting point for these recipes, dont feel as if you are bound to use the exact recipe as provided. On the other hand, a quality barbecue cookbook that provides information about how to properly cook your meat is an invaluable resource to even the most seasoned barbecue professionals. Through the book

You will get the best BBQ cookbook available today. In this barbecue cookbook, you will find a basic barbecue rub recipe as well as many other great ideas to get you started.

When I got my review copy of this book, I wasnt expecting much. To be honest, I didnt expect to learn anything new. Why? Probably ego. I mean Cmon! Ive got all of Steven Raichlens books, the Jamisons Smoke and Spice, Sublime Smoke and Born to Grill, Cooks Illustrated The Best Recipe. Grilling and Barbecue - and half a dozen more. I look at barbecue books on the shelf all the time, and Im rarely impressed. By the time I had gotten through Dr. BBQs (Ray Lampe) Big-Time Barbecue Cookbook, I had discovered a new favorite. (BTW, this being kosherblog, I feel obligated to point out that Steven Raichlen is Jewish and has written a Jewish Cookbook. Why does every review of a new Jewish cookbook express surprise that Jewish Cookery can be healthy? Youd think we were a nation of unhealthy slobs!) There are 5 main sections in the book, dedicated to rubs, marinades and sauces, smoking, grilling, side dishes and recipes with leftovers. The leftovers section was a new one on me. I guess I dont cook enough barbecue if I never had enough leftovers to make into something like

Ray Lampe - Dr. BBQ's Big-Time Barbecue Cookbook. A Real Barbecue Champion Brings the Tasty Recipes and Juicy St.

Welcome to Texas barbecue. They love to make it. They love to eat it. And they love to argue about it-igniting as many feuds as fires from Houston to El Paso. Legends of Texas Barbecue Cookbook delivers both a practical cookbook and a guided tour of Texas barbecue lore, giving readers straightforward advice right from the pit masters themselves. Their time-honored tips, along with 85 closely guarded recipes, reveal a lip-smacking feast of smoked meats, savory side dishes, and an awesome array of mops, sauces, and rubs. Their opinions are outspoken, their stories outlandish and hilarious. Fascinating archival photography looks back over more than 100 years of barbecue history, from the first turn of the century squirrel roasts to candid shots of Lyndon Johnson chowing down on a plate of ribs. A list of the best barbecue joints and a month-by-month rundown of the most influential statewide cook-offs round out this glorious celebration of barbecue found deep in the heart of Texas.

The pitmaster squints into the smoke as he opens the giant steel door. From your place in line, you watch him fork and flip the juicy, black beef clods and sizzling pork loins. Your heart beats faster as he opens a steel door to reveal a dozen sausage rings hissing and spitting in the thick white cloud. Slowly, the sweet cloud of oak smoke makes its way to you, carrying with it the aroma of peppery beef, bacon-crisp pork, and juicy garlic sausage. Your mouth starts watering. You swallow hard. Your stomach rears back and lets out a growl. You're in a frenzy by the time you get to the head of the line, where the hot meats are being sliced and weighed. You order twice as much as you can eat. You carry it away on a sheet of butcher paper, with an extra sheet tucked underneath for a plate. Welcome to Texas barbecue. We love to eat it. We love to make it. And we love to argue about it. We have competing theories on the etymology, the definition of the word, and on those characteristics that make it uniquely Texan. We don't agree on the kind of wood, the need for sauce, the cut of meat, or which part of the state does it best. And we all have our favorite pit bosses. But we all agree that non-Texans don't understand it. Traditional barbecue definitions don't make sense here. Barbecue is always served with a distinctive sauce, say some. Not in Texassome of our most famous barbecue joints serve no sauce at all. Barbecue means slow cooking over the low heat of a wood or charcoal fire, say others. Sorry. Some of the best smoked meat in the Lone Star State is cooked at 600F. So what is Texas barbecue exactly? If we can't quite agree on what it is, at least we can agree on where it came from. A look at the history of barbecue and the evolution of the modern barbecue pit explains a lot about our various styles. If you include roasting meat on an open fire in your definition of barbecue, then the earliest Texans to barbecue were the Caddo Indians, who cooked venison and other game here ten thousand years ago. They were followed by the Spanish shepherds, who spit-roasted kid goat and lamb al pastor (shepherd style) on the South Texas plains, starting in the 1600s. The old Southern version of pit barbecue, meat cooked on a grate of sticks over hot coals in a hole in the ground, migrated to Texas from the South in several stages beginning in the early 1800s. Settlers used this open pit method to cook squirrels and venison. Mexican barbacoa, meat sealed in maguey leaves and buried in hot coals, has also been seen along the Rio Grande Valley for at least a hundred years. Old World meat smoking was brought to Central Texas by German and Czech butchers during an era of intense European migration that began in the 1830s and reached its height around 1890. The German meat markets sold fresh meats and smoked their leftovers in enclosed smokers, as they had done in the Old Country. They were probably astonished when migrant farm workers began the tradition of eating that smoked meat on the spot. The old meat markets are now considered by some to be quintessential Texas barbecue joints, despite the fact that German smoked meats and sausages aren't really American barbecue. When Texas entered the Union as a slave state in the 1850s, cotton planters from the Carolinas, Alabama, and Mississippi came to take advantage of the cheap land prices. Each plantation founder brought as many as a hundred slave families with him. When the slaves were freed in 1865, the African-American barbecue of East Texas became a style of its own. According to Eats A Folk History of Texas Foods, the first big civic barbecues began to be held around the state in the early 1800s. Pits were typically 25 feet long and 3 feet across. Whole sheep, goats, pigs, and Steer's were cut into pieces and cooked over oak or hickory coals while being continuously basted. The standard cooking time was twenty-four hours. After the Civil War, beef became the meat most characteristic of Texas barbecue. In the days before refrigeration, barbecuing beef meant getting enough people together to make killing a whole steer worthwhile. When that happened it was quite a party. While the ultimate in Southern barbecue was cooking a whole hog, cooking a whole steer was the ultimate in Texas barbecue. Because you could feed so many people with a whole steer, Texas barbecues started out bigand then they got bigger. Texans being Texans, barbecues became competitions, and each barbecue became an effort to outdo all others. This tradition lives on in such events as the XIT Annual Reunion in Dalhart, where tens of thousands of people gather year after year to attend the world's largest free barbecue. LEGENDS Civic Barbecues Big public barbecues were held for all kinds of reasons throughout Texas history. In fact, no civic celebration was complete without one. 1853 Stafford gave away free barbecue to the public to celebrate becoming a stop on the Buffalo Bayou, Brazos, and Colorado Railway. 1860 Sam Houston spoke at the Great American Barbecue, a political rally thrown by the American Party in Austin. All citizens of the state were invited to attend and eat for free. 1891 The citizens of Whitney, a town with a declining population, held a barbecue to promote the benefits of citizenship. They gave away 3,500 pounds of barbecue. 1926 Edgar Byram Davis closed what was probably the biggest oil deal in the state up to that time. He got $12 million (half of it in cash) for his Luling oil holdings, and to celebrate he held a free barbecue. Attendance estimates run as high as thirty-five thousand. 1941 At his inauguration celebration, Governor W. Lee Pappy O'Daniel set up pits on the grounds of the capitol building in Austin and gave away barbecue to all corners. 1964 President Lyndon Johnson hosted the president-elect of Mexico at a state dinner at the LBJ Ranch in Johnson City. Catered by Walter Jetton, this dinner for 250 is reported to be America's first official barbecue state dinner. 1991 The XIT ranch's annual reunion in Dalhart, cooked eleven thousand pounds of beef in pits dug with backhoes. The meat was served to twenty thousand guests. The Barbecue Barons WALTER JETTON OF FORT WORTH WAS THE LAST OF the open pit barbecuers and probably the single most influential pit boss in Texas barbecue history. In the 1950s, Jetton held the record for barbecue catering, having fed twelve thousand people at one event. He also enjoyed considerable prestige as LBJ's favorite caterer. In 1965, Pocket Books published his LBJ Barbecue Cookbook. Walter Jetton was a traditionalist and a purist. He dug pits in the ground, burned hardwood down to hot coals, and cooked meat directly over the coals for eighteen to twenty-four hours. Jetton dismissed modern barbecue equipment as claptrap. Unfortunately, cooking in a hole in the ground is frowned on by health inspectors these days. County health departments regulate the use of barbecue pits in food service operations in Texas. The regulations, and how strictly they are enforced, have varied widely from county to county since the laws first hit the books during the health and sanitation crusades of the Progressive Era, in the early 1900s. The brick smokers of German-belt meat markets offered a design model for other barbecue restaurants. Built over a hundred years ago, some of these pits still provide us with insights into how to set up a barbecue. Some barbecue joints, such as Green's in Houston and Novosad's in Halletsville, built cleverly designed pits with the cooking chamber indoors and the firebox outdoors. Some cookbook authors have assumed that the pits in Texas barbecue restaurants were designed to replicate the slow cooking over hot coals common in traditional pit barbecue. But that isn't always true. The heat of Kreuz's old smoker has been measured at temperatures as high as 600F. When Texas barbecue moved from the hole in the ground to the restaurant kitchen, the smoking process was speeded up. LEGENDS Linguistic Lore BQ Some pretty fantastic etymologies for the word barbecue have been advanced over the years. Two cookbooks I've seen recount a tale about a wealthy Texas rancher who fed all his friends whole sheep, hogs, and cattle roasted over open pits. In one cookbook his name is Bernard Quayle, in the other it is Barnaby Quinn, but in both versions the branding iron of the ranch has his initials B. Q. with a straight line underneath. Texas ranches are named for their brands, and a straight line is called a bar. Thus, the bar B. Q. became synonymous with fine eatingor so the story goes. LEGENDS Linguistic Lore BABRACOT According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the English word barbecue derives from the Spanish word barbacoa, which is in turn a variation of babracot, a word that comes to us from the Haitian Taino dialect of the Arawak-Carib language. The Taino word babracot was a noun that actually meant the framework of green sticks that formed the grill. The Caribbean style of slow smoking on a grate over coals was brought to the Carolinas by African slaves in the 1600s and became the basis for the Southern style of barbecue. Advocates of open pit barbecue once argued that this was the only true barbecue style. Nowadays, however, German-style meat smoked in an enclosed pit, Mexican cabrito al pastor roasted by an open fire, and ribs grilled over direct heat all fall within somebody's definition of Texas barbecue. All Texans agree, however, that hamburgers and hot dogs are not barbecue. Mechanization IN 1949, A HOUSTON MACHINIST named Leonard O'Neill won a tiny restaurant near Lenox Street in Houston in a game of craps. He renamed it the Lenox Barbecue, and by the 1960s the restaurant was catering for thousands of guests at a time, and O'Neill found himself competing head to head with the legendary Walter Jetton. In 1967, Ann Valentine, food editor of the Houston Post, wrote an article about the two mega-caterers titled The Barbecue Barons. Unlike Jetton, O'Neill prepared food at a restaurant, where he had to abide by the sanitary codes. But ordinary brick barbecue smokers couldn't accommodate jobs the size of those the Lenox Barbecue was being asked to do. So the former machinist introduced barbecue to the age of mechanization. O'Neill bought an enormous bread-rising oven from the Rainbow Bread bakery. The oven had a rotating mechanism inside that moved the dough through a timed cycle. O'Neill converted this machinery into a mechanized wood smoke rotisserie that could cook three thousand pounds of meat at one time. Today, O'Neill's Lenox Barbecue on Harrisburg Street in Houston is run by Erik Mrok, whose father was a friend of O'Neill's. The restaurant uses three rotisserie ovens of a type patented in 1967 by Herbert Oyler of Mesquite. Oyler, a barbecue restaurant owner from Mesquite, also started by tinkering with a barbecue rotisserie made from a bread-rising oven. Whether he was working independently, in competition, or in cooperation with O'Neill is not known. Oyler's invention is a steel barbecue pit with a rotisserie inside. It has an electric carousel but no heating elements. It is fueled exclusively with wood burned in a remote firebox. The advantage of the rotisserie is that the meat gets basted with dripping fat, but it is cooked with wood smoke. It isn't exactly. (Continues.)

How well do you know your grill? If Nancy Berkoff hasn't already given you enough ideas (see page 6), pick up the sumptuously illustrated Vegetarian Barbecue Cookbook by Mary Gwynn. You'll find mouthwatering innovations like Spiced Root Vegetable Kabobs with Rhubarb and Onion Chutney, and New Potatoes with Cauliflower and Mint. It is true that a lot of the real zing in these recipes is in the sauces that are prepared off the barbecue and inside the kitchen, but Gwynn does use her grill to make some veggie favorites like Vegetable Satay and Falafel. The majority of the non-dessert dishes in this cookbook are vegan, and vegan margarine can easily be substituted for butter, or cheese left out, in most of the non-vegan recipes. However, not one vegan dessert recipe is included, so after grilling up a satisfying repast, either follow Nancy's recipes in this Journal or just enjoy the abundant, delicious fruits of summer. The Vegetarian Barbecue Cookbook (ISBN us. ) is published by Whitecap Books. It is 95 pages long, contains more than 50 recipes, and retails for $16.95. Look for this book in your local or online bookstores. Reviewed by Meri Robie.

The hot dogs as they hit the rack, taste the burnt flavor of the singed products my Dad insisted were the reason grills were invented. Those were the days. While I treasure memories of my apron-clad father courageously manning the grill — especially the time he forgot to take the individual plastic off the gourmet hot dogs which he still served up charred and smoking — I'm thrilled to discover grilling has matured beyond Dad's rudimentary teachings. For those of us who still need lessons in the art of grilling — and the importance of grill heat control, The Barbecue Cookbook (Nitty Gritty Books/Bristol Publishing, available now) provides the basics and more."Grilling is much more than frying a steak like it was in the old days. Now it's gourmet vegetables, and more exciting and flavorful opportunities," author Joanna White said. White's introduction to barbecue includes an explanation of grilling versus barbecuing. Just in case you're not sure — grilling is basically cooking over the coals without a cover, while barbecuing means cooking on a closed grill, which allows the heat to circulate all around the food. Following this simple explanation is a list of types of barbecues and grills available from braziers and kamados to electric smokers and electric countertop grills."What people need to learn now is that grilling or barbecuing is not something that needs to be done quickly, as odd as that may seem," White said. "If you grill on lower temperatures, you can really create wonderful, flavorful foods. It's called indirect grilling."White explains indirect grilling on a charcoal grill — it requires a disposable drip pan be placed in the center of the coals to prevent juices from dripping onto the coals and causing flare-ups. Included in the book are many tips for charcoal grilling, including ones on cooking times. White created her recipes on a gas grill with a nonmovable grill rack fixed at about six inches above the fuel grate. In addition, White explains that all the food was brought to room temperature before grilling, an important part of the procedure since it insures proper cooking times."You really have to be careful about cooking foods thoroughly when grilling. I think that's the biggest mistake people make right off the bat," White said. "You really have to learn how to modify the grill, learn how to bring the temperature down. It's a hard thing to learn because most people want to fire it up and see all the flames. But with all the parasites today, you really have to get the internal temperature of foods up."Not only have new innovations on grilling safely and healthfully occurred, but even our ideas about sauces have matured. Previously, barbecue in many regions used to be defined only by the wet, saucy creations which drew finger-licking responses. Today's barbecue however includes rubs, marinades, and more refined sauces. White refers to her recipes for such concoctions as uncomplicated, savory, and simple."I really got to experiment with marinades and rubs. I don't think rubs have to be spicy hot — they can be more flavorful," White said. "To me the hot, hot spices cover up the flavor. I like to intensify the flavor, not mask it with too many flavors."White recommends not mixing too many spices, but instead urges home chefs to mix a few ingredients to create distinctive flavors for their rubs. Her recipes call for just a few high-quality ingredients. For example, a Seafood Dill Rub requires dill, paprika, lemon zest, cayenne pepper, coarse salt, black pepper, and brown sugar. In the recipe's notes, White suggests increasing the amount of brown sugar if using salmon, while adding turbinado sugar will give the rub a crunchier crust. These subtle suggestions and recipes make White's books a trusted resource for home chefs. She writes with a personal style and gives the impression you are in her kitchen. Chicken in FlightGrilling is an art, a truly personal experience. Families have their own barbecue "expert," or guru. Those gurus have their own individual ideas on what constitutes the perfect barbecue and they're always more than willing to share their expertise with you — something White discovered while compiling recipes and tips for her 15th cookbook release. A frequent contributor to Nitty Gritty Books, White may have an admirable list of cookbooks under her name, but she admits barbecue was not one of her most notable skills."Grilling was something that the guys had always done. So I spent a lot of time learning about grilling and grilling my brains out," she said. As she began testing recipes and working with her outdoor grill, she realized how much she had to learn."When I first began researching, I went out to the grill, fired it up, put on a piece of meat, and went inside to answer the phone," White explained. "I came out and it was charred beyond recognition. So then I started really studying and researching everything about grilling and I explain my experiences in the recipes. It's been really neat. I discovered people really like to share their techniques and how they do things. It's been a learning experience."White began talking with friends about barbecue, learning their insights. It seemed everyone had their own special grilling technique or recipe to contribute. One recipe passed on by a friend was for Beer Chicken, which White enthusiastically went home to test for herself."My friend told me about roasting a whole chicken on the grill with an open can of beer inside the cavity," she began. "Well, I went home to try it and the first time I walked outside to check on the chicken, I opened the grill and it went flying across my deck. I learned it was very important to have the grill level. So I reset it and closed the grill. I opened it again…and the chicken went flying once more. I learned that time the importance of removing the hanging rack."Through her comedic grilling experience, White learned the mistakes which can occur when grilling. She said she's since seen the technique on a television cooking show, without any warning of the problems she encountered. That's why she believes it's important to include such tips and warnings in her books."After about three or four times, I got the chicken cooked and it was very good and very tender. But talk about learning from your mistakes," she quipped. "I was laughing so hard at the end of the day. What that poor chicken went through."The Barbecue Cookbook includes recipes for marinades, basting butters, and sauces. dry rubs for chicken, meat, and fish. grilled vegetables and fruits. special burgers and steaks. salads made with grilled vegetables, fish, and meats. grilled appetizers. new barbecuing techniques. and equipment. Sized for ease of use, The Barbecue Cookbook measures five by eight inches, making it a handy outdoor barbecue reference. White's tips and grilling tool recommendations make the book a great add-on for in-store displays. Her recipe instructions include a variety of good recommendations for grilling accessories, such as baskets and screens, heavy mitts, and spray bottles. White discusses what's available, how to use it, and how to clean it — a great merchandising tool for gourmet retailers.
