License to Grill : Achieve Greatness At The Grill With 200 Sizzling Recipes

Rating:
Summary: Great read, but use common sense
Review: This book is a great, entertaining read, and it gives a lot of good information regarding technique. However, I tend to use the recipes themselves as "ideas" rather than follow the recipes to the letter. Some of the ingredient quantites seem almost absurd. For example, a recipe for pepper-crusted steak with blue cheese butter calls for 1 cup (!) of cracked black pepper and and a half-cup of kosher salt for 4 steaks. Use a little common sense, adjust the recipes accordingly, and you'll get good results.

Summary: Send it to a friend!
Review: This book really lets you take grilling beyond burgers, dogs and steaks -- even if you have limited experience. The recipes are easy to follow, and the course combinations allow preparation of complete meals that work well together. Every time I have referred to this book, I have found at least one (and usually more than one) recipe that was right on target. It is limited on color photos, but I have not found this to be a problem since the text is quite descriptive and well-written. I highly recommend it.
