Book Description

September 5, 2012
True Blood, HBO's blockbuster paranormal drama, enthralls a diverse audience of 13 million viewers (and counting). Menus at the now-famous Fangtasia and Merlotte's Bar and Grill play a key role in the series, providing sustenance for its human characters, evoking memories of a bygone life for its vampires, and serving as a powerful symbol for the desires and carnal needs the characters harbor. It's no wonder so many fans revel in at-home parties inspired by the food on the series! With recipes from unforgettable scenes, each entertainingly introduced by True Blood's most compelling characters, these 85 authentic bayou country recipes and 150-plus photos from the series give fans a big taste of Bon Temps.

A Look Inside True Blood: Eats, Drinks, and Bites from Bon Temps

Review

"On Sunday summer nights for the past four years, households across the land have turned into True Blood viewing party venues, where folks infatuated with the HBO show's campy, sexually perverse storytelling convene and wish they could sip some of that bottled blood sold at Fangtasia and Merlotte's Bar and Grill. Here's the perfect gift for them: A Southern-minded cookbook overseen by former True Blood showrunner Alan Ball that offers over 80 recipes and 150 photos of their favorite characters. Help your friends' sixth season bashes get even freakier with dishes like Stake and Eggs and I Wanna Snapper in Two and some Dead on the Beach cocktails."

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Cookbook! September 4, 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This truly is a great cookbook! First, it's beautiful...the pictures they took from the series are stunning. Second, the recipes are great! At first I was a bit concerned as there are a lot of drink recipes and the food recipes seemed pretty standard. But over this weekend I cooked 4 of the recipes and they were SO GOOD! I received rave reviews from my friends and family. This is definitely something any True Blood fan would enjoy...and especially if they have a knack for cooking!

5.0 out of 5 stars Southern cooking dripping with True Blood charm September 10, 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm not sure what crazy devil pitched a True Blood-themed Southern cookbook but may Lilith bless you! It is a seriously beautiful, hardcover book chock-full of artery clogging recipes like hushpuppies, banana pudding, gumbo, fancy shrimp cocktails, baking powder biscuits, and crawfish dip. And each page also features a full-color photo from the beloved vampire show. In the wide-spectrum of crazy TV companions, this tops them all.

4.0 out of 5 stars Let the good times roll August 30, 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I would say if you are a fan of the show and like cooking or drinks this book is for you. It seems to have a good mix of drink and food that are themed to the show and to the area that it is set in. the book is well made from what I can tell so far and offers a lot of pictures from the show to bring back memories from the past seasons. The drink recipes seem nice and the food looks good and fitting for that area. I would recommend this book to anyone that either collects themed cookbooks off of TV shows, or for fans of that show, and also people that would like some down southern food and drink.
