I love to browse through different cookbooks. I have quite a collection, and usually go to the library to find new recipes to try before I decide to purchase the entire book. I normally look for 3 things in a cookbook, besides delicious recipes that will work for my family. This includes:
1) Pictures of more than ¾ of the recipes (Color pictures are the best)
2) A spiral binding, or at least on that easily lays flat
3) New & innovative recipes that have ingredients I can easily find at a grocery store

For this book, I was intrigued by the amount of different barbeque recipes that it contained, grouped by season so that you choose different recipes from winter, summer, spring, and fall. Like many people, I mainly use my barbeque during the warm summer months, but this book gave us a ton of new ideas for recipes that appeal all year long.

The downside of the book was that it offered no photographs, and was not in a binding that laid flat. I liked the recipes, but thought that the lack of pictures of the finished products could hold some back from purchasing the book.

Some of our favorites include: Sautéed White Mushrooms, Rack of Pork, Dr. BBQ Barbecued Barbecue Shrimp, Shamrock Potatoes, Fake Sugar Cupcakes, and Peachy Pork Steaks. Enjoy!

Not only is this "Keeper" designed to get you into the winners circle at competitions as well as home. But it has loads of classic and various traditional recipes not usually found in other books.
At the great bargain selling price it makes a great gift that will be used over and over again.

Go for it.

This book touches on some general recipes...but not much in the way of
specifics. A little chicken, some beef, some pork, etc.

Not too bad...although, for me, I got more info from books such as
"BBQ USA", "The Barbecue! Bible" & "Better Homes And Gardens New Grilling
Book"...

This is a great cookbook for anyone not just the barbeque person it has so many great recipies. I bought it to go along with my copy of Dr. BBQ's other book which he signed for me at a barbeque contest in Arthur Illinois

I gave bought this book as a gift for my son. He is just learning to barbecue and I thought this would give him more ideas for his grill. He LOVES the book and I am very pleased with the purchase. The book contains recipes all kinds of meats, fowl, and seafoods, as well as recipes for side dishes, salads and desserts. I highly recommend this book for any new barbecuer, or someone looking to expand their recipe/cooking skills.
