Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I own quite a few BBQ books. That's because I'm what's referred to as a "Pellet Head". I've been trying to learn BBQ techniques for a couple of years. That is what attracted me to this book.
This book is a bit unique for a BBQ book. It's so pretty that it's almost a coffee table book. That surprised me, since most BBQ books are no nonsense, functional endeavors.
"America's Best BBQ" offers up "selected" recipes from famous, semi-famous and even some obscure BBQ restaurants. But don't expect your favorite BBQ joint to give up their signature dishes. However, the recipes that are included are interesting. And since there are many restaurants in here, the whole adds up to a lot of decent looking recipes.
Frankly I was a little disappointed at first. I had hoped to find some "signature" dish recipes. But once I got over that, it was clear that the book covers a lot of ground and offered up some pretty unique perspectives and interesting ideas.
Pros:
*It's really pretty
*There are a lot of varied and even surprising ideas
*It gives me ideas of new place to try when I travel.
Cons:
*Don't expect your favorite restaurant to give up their signature dishes.
*Some of the recipes are vague and assume you know a lot about BBQ.
All in all, a good, interesting book for anyone wanting to BBQ or looking for a new BBQ joint to try out.
