A Must Have Cookbook if You Have a Barbie

This book will tell you everything you ever wanted to know about cooking with fire. As it says in the introduction, the bare essentials for grilling are really just heat and/or fire and some way to hold the food over it. In the Caribbean we've jury rigged many a barbeque, some rocks, wood and a grate of some kind and you're good to go. We've done up a zillion different kinds of fish, coconut (barbecued coconut taste kind of like bacon) and veggies and even hot dogs, yes they have those in the Caribbean, they have them everywhere. This book wants you to have maybe a little better barbeque then I'm talking about, but many of the recipes here you can make on a basic rock and grate barbie, like the Whole Red Snapper with Baby Fennel & Nicoise Olives. It's a bit more work then doing it at home, but I've done it and loved it. Most folks will be cooking up these recipes on their backyard barbie and if you're one of those may I heartedly recommend the Chicken Breasts with Grainy Mustard, Almonds & Thyme or the Roasted Pork Chops with Cabbage & Mustard. Then there is one of Hubby Dub's favorite meals, the Loin of Pork with Apples & Bitter Chocolate. Does than just sound divine or what? I could go on and on about the wonderful, wonderful recipes in this book, but perhaps the best way to sum it all up is to say if you have a barbie and don't have this book, then you're not getting a 100% out of you barbeque, not even 75%, not even 50%.

Great recipes

Outstanding recipes. Quite straightforward but full of flavor. My family has three big men (heavy weight wrestlers) and these guys appreciate good food. This cookbook delivers. Practical, do-able, reasonable amount of time. Can't ask for much more.

My New favorite Grilling Book!

This book is great. I own several grilling books and am always sad when winter comes (I live in the Northeast) and I have to put them away when I cover up the grill. But not this year! Waldy Malouf's book will take me into winter because all the recipes work in the oven as well as on the grill. So it's like getting two for one.To be totally honest I shouldn't give this book 5 stars yet because I've only used the grilling recipes, but everything I've tried has been fantastic, and better, is EASY. The balsamic chicken is amazing, and the lamb with olives my new favorite party entree and the tuna came out perfectly, covered in this herb oil and very moist. It's a terrific book and I hope he writes another one soon.
