Book Description

May 1, 1997
Steak is no longer just a grill-em-and-eat-em food. It has matured into a gourmet experience of exquisite delight, tempting eager palates with tender mouthfuls of juicy flavor. For today's discriminating carnivores, here at last is a cookbook that they can really sink their teeth into. Celebrating the many different ways beef can be prepared, The Steaklover's Companion gives meat eaters a taste of the unique flavors of the different regions of the country. From Boston, there's Tenderloin Tips braised in Samuel Adams Beer. Florida offers Grillades and Grits with Fried Green Tomatoes. The Western Range serves up a tempting Mesquite-Grilled Rib-Eye Cowboy Steak with Black Bean Rellenos and Pico de Gallo Salsa. Mouthwatering recipes by leading chefs like Wolfgang Puck, Paul Prudhomme, Mark Miller and Stephen Pyles round out the selections, guaranteeing that this cookbook caters to every taste.

Beautifully designed, featuring 170 delicious recipes and 50 luscious four-color photographs and packed with invaluable tips on choosing, preparing and storing beef, this is truly the ultimate steaklover's companion.

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

The Steaklover's Companion by Frederick J. Simon, executive vice president of Omaha Steaks, the mail order meat company, serves up information as plain and unadorned as a slab of meat in a steakhouse. There's some history in the introduction written by Merle Ellis, a.k.a. "The Butcher," a food personality who focuses on meat. He also explains where steaks come from on the steer and how the various cuts differ. The meat of the book consists of 170 recipes, many contributed by chefs. These tend to be kind of gussied up for steak, including dishes like Thyme and Fennel-Rolled Strip Steaks with Pickled Okra and Creamy Coleslaw. Better bets are the regional and international steak dishes such as Philadelphia Cheesesteak Sandwiches and Japanese Beef Teriyaki

5.0 out of 5 stars A Protein Lover's Dream..., March 5, 2003
By 
Tiffany Follett (St. Paul, MN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Steaklover's Companion: 170 Savory Recipes from America's Greatest Chefs (Hardcover)
I have been on the protein diet for nearly 4 years now and have been successful, however you do get so sick of plain old steaks. This book is a godsend. The first recipe in the book is from Emeril Lagasse and looks wonderful. That's the next one I am going to make.

I made the Strip steaks stuffed with Garlic and Creamy Chard. This recipe is phenomenal. This book is definitely worth every penny.

This review is from: Steaklover's Companion: 170 Savory Recipes from America's Greatest Chefs (Hardcover)
If i recall when i acquired the product, i was very disappointed when i started going through this book. I remember reading through the description with knowledge of this book about steak descriptions of history and wit not. Did not give any information on steaks. BUT...this book is really neat on cooking information and great recipes. i would have gave this book a better review if i where indeed looking for a cookbook. But still giving it to a friend for a descent first meat cookbook.
