Rating: Summary: Excellent read, excellent food. Review: This book is for everyone interested in great barbecue. The recipes included will work fantastic as they are, or can be the start of developing your own. I have tried several recipes, all have been a big hit. I can also recommend Steven Raichlen's book "How to Grill".
Rating: Summary: Barbecue is not catsup on hamburger Review: This book is positive proof that we were meant to eat meat cooked with fire and smoke. Vegitarians need not apply.
Rating: Summary: THE book for barbecue sauces!!! Review: This book is wonderful. I have already improved my grilling 100% in just the few days that I have owned this book. The recipies that I have tried so far have all been wonderful.

Rating: Summary: Damn fine tasty recipes Review: This is a wonderful book. Every recipe I've tried has come out with fantastic results. Some of them have more exotic ingredients, but others have pretty common ones (ex. lemon, garlic, butter). All of them have been absolutely delicious. With this book, I've cooked some steaks that people have said were better than those they'd eaten at the Seattle Ruth Chris Steakhouse or Daniels. (Of course the aged tendeloin steaks from Larry's and a nice gas BBQ help). I really like the recipe's for "The only mariade you'll ever need", the P.D.T. (Pretty Damn Tasty) Sourpuss Lemon Chicken Marinade), Sweet Sesame-Soy Marinade, and the ADOBO (Cuban Garlic Marinade). My brother-in-law liked this ADOBO steak so much, he wanted the name of this book to go and buy it, so I'm going to give it to them as a housewarming present now that they can have a BBQ again.
Rating: Summary: Great work Review: This is an interesting book that is full of insights and interesting commentaries. The recipes span a huge range. The authors must be good, since they appreciate Kansas City Barbeque!
Rating: Summary: Upgrade your grilling/smoking TODAY! Review: This is one of the best books you should buy if you are into grilling and/or smoking foods. It is the one I use the most (I own about 6-8 books). If you want to upgrade the flavor of anything you cook, this is the book for you. I commonly keep some of the rubs in the pantry and usually have at least one of the barbeque sauces in the fridge. My pepper grinder has the six-pepper blend in it all the time. I have even tried a mustard and ketchup from the book with great success! You don't have to be a good chef to use this book (how hard is it to mix spices?). A previous reviewer listed that many of the recipes contain a "hard to find" ingredient. I don't think that is an entirely fair assesment. The book author provides links in the back of the book to numerous mail order houses where you can buy all the ingredients you need. It is well worth it. I found that for a relatively modest investment in 4-6 spices (~[$$]) I have been able to make everything I have been interested in. I really really really like this book.
