Just the basics, ma'am. This book is certainly thorough, if a little conservative. There are marinades, for example, using orange juice but none using any of the many Korean sauces.

It's got recipes and cooking tips on everything from the red meats, to poultry, to seafood and vegetables. I found the seafood particularly helpful since I always have trouble with that.

There are also many useful tips on maintenance and equipment. The advice and recipes are non-denomination...more

I have so many cookbooks and have either never used them (though I have read them all) or only tried a recipe or two. This year my personal cooking challenge is to use a different cookbook every week for a couple of new recipes. I have begun with this one. Last night's Mesquite Port Steaks with Ancho Chile BBQ Sauce was nothing short of amazing. Wow. A great end to the year, foodwise! Tonight: Moroccan Lamb in Pita ... with a yogurt sauce containing fresh dill, mint, red onion, and lime juice.

The dry rub for the Kansas City-Style Spareribs and this cooking technique resulted in delicious ribs. (I did not make the sauce, but used a favorite prepared sauce instead.) Of course I am a Kansas City girl! I do live in St. Louis, though, so I used St. Louis style cut of ribs.

I have to bow down to this book as the best grilling book EVER. We've tried many of the recipes and never been disappointed. Plus, it's entertaining to read with great pictures. Can't ask for much more than that.

If you have a Weber gril you have to get this book.
If you follow the grilling instructions all meats are perfectly cooked.
I thought I knew how to cook a steak until I got this book. Some great marinades and rubs.

Interesting read from the Weber bbq people, with lots of counter-intuitive advice: always grill with the top on and don't bother with two level zones. Otherwise, lots of good solid advice.

Looking to grill some food, but not quite sure how to do it? Then this is the book for you?

Already know how to grill, but looking for some great new recipes? Then this is the book for you too!

This has recipes for every vegetable you can buy in the U.S., all different types of meat (the recipe for the disappearing pork is worth the book alone!); and even includes dessert recipes.

If you like to go gourmet while camping - this is a great book for you as well.

These are very do-able recipes, many are keepers that are worth doing over and over again. Some are just alright, but on the whole, if you grill a lot it is worth having.

Not only does this book have a lot of recipes, but it has grilling theory and history as well. It's a little Weber-centric, but not rudely so. If you could have just one grilling book, this is it!

Want to know how to grill your Tday Bird? It's in here!
Also check out grilled figs and grilled strawberries...all I can say is 'YUM!'

The BEST GRILLING BOOK for starting out. I still like this one better than the follow up book Real Grilling.

This is a keeper!

Don't start on me about gas grilling you might as well put it in the oven or give the meat you cook on it to your dog! Get a Weber and use Charwood. It's the only way to grill.
