Spring is here! I’m sure after being cooped up indoors and having to endure the long cold winter, die hard grillers across the country are chomping at the bit to get that fire started.

Since Ottolenghi isn’t a vegetarian himself, it’s interesting to see the way in which he uses his Mediterranean background to make the ingredients he uses really shine.

It’s the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday and the official end of the Mardi Gras season. If you’re going to cook or eat any type of creole [...]

Thanks to a very thoughtful wife, I was given a copy of this amazing cookbook when it was first published at the end of 2009. I’m glad she was paying attention (my son got one too. He’s also glad). Thomas Keller is obviously a brilliant chef and great restaurateur (I probably didn’t even need to [...]

I love smoked food! And, this book tells you how to make the real deal. REAL AUTHENTIC BBQ just like some of the best pit masters around the country. Now, I’m not suggesting that if you buy this book you’re going to wake up the next morning with a medal round your neck that says [...]
