What no pictures??? Oh well, it would have been great to see all of these dishes in living color but this isn't for arm chair cooks. It's a go out and cook something cook book.

Small (overall size) in comparison to some cookbooks, it is loaded with recipes. Rick Browne is famous for his TV show "Barbecue America" offering a tremendous amount of fun to his cooking. Tips, memories and detailed preparations are the standard fair for every recipe. Every recipe has a bit of his personality added to it in each recipe introduction. "By Jove! The British know a thing or two about roast meat and the best way to eat it-"

Hot off the press with over 150 pages, 9 chapters covering:
Salads - Breads - Pasta - Vegetables - Rice - Beans - Salads - Potatoes and (my favorite) Fruit.

I am glad I picked this up and encourage you to grab a copy also. Four stars from this reviewer!!
