Barbecue Cookbooks -
Outdoor BBQ Menu Ideas
Why buy barbecue cookbooks when there are so many free recipes available on the internet? Every chef has his or her own influences and experiences and it's important to soak that up, develop your individuality and create your own outdoor BBQ menu ideas. So in my view it's worth having a few books in your collection but no more and don't pay the earth for them.
I use Amazon and buy second hand because I can pick up the top BBQ chef's cookbooks at really cheap prices - check out the "best prices" on some of my selections below and you'll see what I mean. The option to buy new is still there of course because a new cookbook makes for a great affordable gift for any BBQ enthusiast. If you want to buy or just browse further click on the "Buy from Amazon.com" button and it'll take you direct into the Amazon website where you can read more reviews and make your choice. Ainsley Harriott's Barbecue Bibles were some of the first barbecue books that I ever bought and it has to be said, one of the best for pictures and a good source of inspiration for the grill.
Paul Kirk is a chef who has been barbecuing since the early 1980s, is unabashedly proud of his ability to make up a recipe in his head, never test it and win a contest with it. His guides to outdoor cooking will instill his confidence in readers, through a series of lessons on "what to bring to a barbecue cook-off," "controlling your fire" and "developing a grand champion mindset." Of course, if readers are just looking to host a casual backyard barbecue, they’ll find plenty of tips here, too. Kirk’s thorough treatment of barbecuing will enlighten aspiring barbecue champions and backyard gourmets alike. Paul has written a great new book with Ardie A Davis thats become one of my favorites so click on the link to read the full review of
