The Only Grilling Book You Need!,
By
This review is from: Soaked, Slathered, and Seasoned: A Complete Guide to Flavoring Food for the Grill (Paperback)
Elizabeth Karmel did it again! I loved her first book on grilling but this one is a slam dunk! It gives you all the basics of grilling and then every way you could possibly marinade, brine, sauce and spice up your grilled food. I couldn't wait to try the Pernod Brine for Salmon, what a cool idea. It was amazing! There are about 20 brines, you can even make your own pastrami brine! The butters are awesome too. For all courses, sweet and savory, on the grill, this is the only book you need (and its not big and cumbersome). I'M FIRED UP!

An Essential Book For The Outdoor Chef!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Soaked, Slathered, and Seasoned: A Complete Guide to Flavoring Food for the Grill (Paperback)
There are several books that I consider essential for the outdoor chef. Among them are the Jamie Purviance/Weber quartet. For reasons set forth below, I add this book, and Ms. Karmel's "Taming ther Flame" to my shelf of "must haves".
What makes this an "essential book"? First, it is unique; almost all grilling books have some recipies for rubs, mops and sauces, but this book is dedicated to them. In my opinion, it is these items that make or break what comes off the grill. Second, the recipies are simple and easy to follow, yet the ones I have tried produce real "flavor bombs". They are intense, yet well integrated into the dish they go with. They support rather than overwhelm. Third, the book is a teaching tool. Even the experienced chef will learn new techniques, and aquire new and useful information. For example, I learned asbout the differences in paprikas, and why different ones are preferred over others. Where I live, paprika is generic in the market, so learning about the differences, and going online to get them, produced improved results. Fourth, and most important for most of us, it enables us to put more consistantly well flavored food in front of family and friends. Using this book has enabled me to improve much of what I cook, and I have been at the grill for a whole bunch of years. My older son got this for me as a Christmas gift, when I was two weeks post hip replacement; I think he thought that it was time for the old man to get back to the essentials. Well, his ploy worked! We moved some snow to get at the grills and I started using these recipies. It's been a whole lot of fun! There's one other plus, and I'm old enough to mention it without being called sexist: Ms Karmel is kind of cute. If producing consistantly high quality food from the grill is your thing, I recommend this book to you without reservation. You'll find yourself using it a lot!

Make Everything You Cook Taste Better!,
By J. Belmonti "Live, Laugh, Love, and Eat BBQ!" (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Soaked, Slathered, and Seasoned: A Complete Guide to Flavoring Food for the Grill (Paperback)
After getting this book I paged through it and immediately started thinking about ways to spice up my cooking. I am an avid griller and also enjoy smoking food and am always looking for new ways to marinade meat. I have been following Elizabeth for a long time and this book really takes the cake as far as her cookbooks go. I know it will get a lot of use. Not only does she make it simple to make greek chicken or incredible lamb chops, she gives you a map on how to make your own tastes translate into successful new dishes.
I would have to say that it is the ultimate kitchen reference for anyone who loves or even just likes to cook. In a matter of moments you can enjoy all the tips and tricks that it seems like the author has learned from all the friends she has made over the years. Buy this book, you will actually use it!
