 This
cookbook helps you master the art of grilling. The authors are born in Virginia
introduce you to the spicy tastes from tropical climates and the barbecuing
techniques of the American South. The authors give you a guideline for choosing
the right foods for the grill and how to cook them.
The cookbook is written not only humorously but also in a relaxed style starting with the table of contents. Under "Enough of These Will Make a Meal", the authors give a menu for "96 Degrees in the Shade - A Summer Lunch" with such suggested adventures as tropical gaspacho, avocado stuffed with seared tuna estilio seviche and sweet potato-peanut pie. In the chapter on "Fish and Other Water Dwellers" we are introduced to such fare as grilled tuna steak with nectarine-red onion relish and world-famous fried soft-shell sandwich with tartar sauce or grilled shrimp with dandelion greens and ginger. "Birds and Things with Hooves" humorously lists grilled big black-and- blue steak for two and a more serious note with the grilled pork skewers with green mango. The section on "Sambals, Blatjangs, and Salsa" dares you to try Georgia peach chutney, an apricot blatjang, braised garlic and onion jam and spicy oyster sauce with lemon grass. "Slow and Low Is the Way to Go": Barbecues (Smoke Cooking) explains types of barbecue, terms you need to know with recipes for chicken, duck, ribs (baby back and ribs Missouri style) as well as beef and some sandwiches. No barbecue or grill is complete without all the fixin's. These include salads, roasted vegetables and other accompaniments. The authors conclude their presentations with "Breads and Desserts" as a memorable event to a barbecue with hot pepper corn bread, Mississippi mud cake and sweet potato-peanut pie. At the end of the cookbook the last section lists sources around the U.S. for unusual ingredients. If you like outdoor entertaining, this cookbook will help you to enjoy your efforts and surprise your guests. Buy Thrill of the Grill at Amazon now!
