A burger for every taste,
By
This review is from: Great Burgers: Mouthwatering Recipes (Hardcover)
If you are even an occasional consumer of hamburgers, then Great Burgers will become your kitchen bible. Why settle for fast food burgers when you can make your own delights at home?
Sloan's book is divided into four, easy-to-use categories: Classic Burgers, Adventurous Burgers, Lighter Burgers, and Side Dishes. And there is something for everyone. Surprisingly, despite the title, not all recipes are for burgers made of beef. There are a number of recipes for burgers made with tuna, lobster, chicken, and portabello mushrooms among other ingredients, and all sound absolutely delicious. In addition to listing basic ingredients, Sloan also gives a list of basic condiments in the opening of the book, and explains why each one is perfect for burgers, and he also discusses the various methods of preparing each type of burger. Whether it's the basic bacon cheeseburger you crave, or a more adventurous burger like his recipe for a Thai Veal burger, you'll find this book will also trigger your own ideas for variations on the norm. The side dish recipes include Rosemary Roasted Potatoes, the classic French Fry, delicious garlic mashed potatoes, and even an authentic New York Egg Cream. If you're looking to inject a little change into what you normally think of as a burger, then Great Burgers will help you reflavor your taste.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A culinary collection of savory hamburger recipes,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Great Burgers: Mouthwatering Recipes (Hardcover)
There's so much more to a hamburger than will ever be encountered at a McDonald's or a Wendy's or a Burger King. Great Burgers: Mouthwatering Recipes by burgermeister Bob Sloan offers a culinary collection of savory hamburger recipes that brings this American classic up into the ranks of gourmet dining. There are even "kitchen friendly" recipes for superbly crafted non-meat burgers! From the Portobello Mushroom and Goat Cheese Burger; to the Lamb and Feta Burger with Cumin-Yogurt Dressing; to the Churasco Burger with Chimichurri Sauce; to the Portobello-Eggplant Burger with Smoked Mozzarella and Tapenade, Great Burgers is one specialty cookbook that fully lives up to its title! Enhanced throughout with the color photography of Jonelle Weaver, Great Burgers is additionally enhanced with a chapter dedicated to truly superb recipes for side dishes, a "Table of Equivalents", and an index. If you only have room on your kitchen shelf for one more cookbook, then make it Bob Sloan's Great Burgers!

Not too original,
By kodakian (Rochester NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Great Burgers: Mouthwatering Recipes (Hardcover)
There are a whole bunch of burger cookbooks out this spring and I bought three. This one came in third; pictures were kind of bland, and recipes seemed vaguely familiar. Nothing too original here. The others had ideas that I never would have thought of. Burgers Every Way and The Great Big Burger Book are better collections of new ways to make burgers.
