Even I Can Grill With This Book!!!

I am an absolute novice at grilling, and not a great cook! BUT, this book is so down to earth and easy to understand that I have been thrilled with the results! I can easily follow the directions, and the steps are not difficult. I can now confidently invite company to enjoy what I do on the grill! Thanks Chef McPeake!

The only grilling book the home chef will ever need!

Chef Richard McPeake's classes at The Culinary Center of Kansas City are some of our most popular. The students report back often that he is one of the best teachers they have ever experienced. We think it is because he gives loads of clear and concise grilling information to our students and he tells it like it is. No secrets...just solid information. If you want to learn to grill at home the right way then this is the book for you.

Outstanding!

This book offers excellent information on high temperature grilling, with diagrams on different fire building and how to properly use temperature zones. Lots of information I never thought about and a great rotisserie chapter and recipes. The Cracker Crust Pizzas are out of this world. Who would of thought of this on a grill. This is a must grilling book for all who love to grill!!! The book is easy to follow and well layout! This book also features how to do a Clambake on the grill, I love it!!!!

Fine Tuning for the 'Professional' Griller

As the man of the house, I consider myself a capable griller. Chef McPeake's Backyard Grilling book has elevated me to a new level of outdoor cooking! His very creative recipes have given me a whole new outlook on what I can prepare on the grill. ( Who knew you could do an outstanding Jamabalya on the grill?)

What a treat for the taste buds!!![.]

If you have always liked to grill but wanted to take your grilling to the next levels, THIS IS THE BOOK! Diagrams about grills, heat, coals, etc. plus an abundance of dishes. Every single recipe I wanted to try out. I can't wait to have a Clam Bake, grill the best burgers, whip together that incredible bbq sauce, dry rub my steaks, and have a margarita chicken party. These are fun, simple, and will bring anyone to the next level.Perfect timing for the summer!
