1. Finally! A book that really tells us everything we need and want to know about grilling meat. As author of 3 cookbooks on grilling, including "Marinades, the Secret of Great Grilling", I can tell you that I am buying this book for everyone I know who grills meat - and that is just about everyone I know. It's so well organized that I can find information at a glance. The recipes are readable, do-able, and taste terrific.



2. The Lobels' have introduced a very nice and unique cookbook with the release of this one. I own several other grilling cookbooks, and there are many good ones out there. This one is my absolute favorite because the recipes are a little more than your basic grilled steak or hamburger. Try the grilled filet mignon with gorgonzola-scallion compound butter and the sirloin steak with rosemary brushed potatoes and red peppers. Don't forget to try the barbeque sauce. It's fantastic. The book's contents include tips on grilling, burgers, beef and veal, lamb and pork, poultry, game and game birds, and sauces, salsas, maranades, rubs and other condiments. There are no fish recipes so if you are looking for that specifically, find another cookbook. If everything else sounds good to you, you will enjoy this inovative book by the Lobels'.



3. This is a goldmine for explaining the intricacies of meat
   preparation. The book explains soup stock, stuffing and
   barbecuing. The author distinguishes between the caloric
   content, proteins and fats. This work explains how to
   pack meat. In fact, the author describes the meat-packing
   industry West of Chicago. The author demonstrates how various
   food elements are inter-related in the complex interaction
   of digestion. Meat provides important dietary amino acids and
   iron. This book is a good value for all meat connoisseurs.



4. Prime time: The Lobels' Guide to Great Grilled Meats (Complete Idiots Guide) offers a collection of pedestrian recipes for the grill. Written by New York's premiere butchers, the book covers meat from beef to pork to poultry with a section on condiments. The tips and tidbits offered are neither novel nor innovative.
   
   I expected more from the author than this routine offering. Like prime time television it neither challenges or inspires. I suppose I should have paid more attention to the fact it is dubbed a "complete idiots guide". If you are looking for a basic guide to grilling, this will do as well as the meat section of any popular cookbook. However, if you aspire to thrill with the grill, there are many, many books that are superior.

1. You can use this book year round - lots of ideas for indoor and outdoor cooking - book has lots of variety with stuff for both meat eaters and veggies. The ABC of cooking by AWT is also worth a look as it has good advice for every day cooking...

1. If you like Barbeque, buy this book! It is the reasonably funky story about an award-winning chef's quest to make good authentic Barbeque in an unlikely location-Maine. The recipes are good, the techniques are proven and the book is a delight to read. I fist got the book in 1991 when it was initially published, and as a displaced Texan in Maine, I can vouch for the quality of the recipes. This is the most tattered, oft-used book in my cookbook shelf.

   Enjoy it




2. I am a great fan of Uncle Billy's DownEast Barbeque. I live in Maine and visit Uncle Billy's restaurant whenever I can. But, since I live 5 hours away at the other end of the state, I find the recipes in this book a great way to indulge my BBQ cravings. The recipes are easy to follow, and simple to make. Some recipes have many ingredients, but I find all of them necessary to the final dish. A great cookbook!
