I learned a lot from this book and it gave me renewed interest in doing more cooking on the grill. This is an educational book as well as a recipe book and there are chapters covering the types of grills, smokers, accessories, tips for brining and marinating to optimize the taste and texture of the foods. It also had a section just for rubs, marinade, sauces and butters.
The recipes? Awesome. Grilled lamp chops with mint cream sauce, greek pheasant skewers, lemonade glazed wings, grilled tuna w/orange basil sauce. It even has a vegetarian section which I really liked because I love marinating and grilling vegetables.
