Review: The Thrill of the Grill

Editorial Review - Kirkus Reviews

Schlesinger, the Virginia-born owner-chef of the East Coast Grill in Cambridge Mass. (and grandson of historian Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.), takes a freewheeling approach to grilling and barbecuing He likes strong flavors, hot peppers, and tropical fruits; borrows from Thai, Jamaican, Texan, and Indonesian cuisines; and grills not only steak, pork, and fish but also such unlikely items as tripe, toast, figs, squid (for pasta), and tomatoes (for soup). His aptly titled cookbook, coauthored with Willoughby (a staff writer for Cook's Magazine) includes discussion of ancillary aspects of grilling, such as the relative merits of various fuels.

If Dagwood Bumstead was a member he would have this book. The Wifey gave me this as a present and it has become my go-to grilling book. It does contain non-grilling recipes, such as a really excellent daiquiri. Read full review

User Review  - Pumpkinlea - Goodreads

This is a great cook out book! Though the majority of the main dish recipes are meat based, they are easy to switch up for the veggies out there. One of perks of this cookbook is that it links you to side dish recipes within the book (page number and all). Read full review
