I've been watching Guga for years

His methods for cooking meats are spot on. Guys is creative and not overly complicated with his recipes. Would highly recommend this book!

Guga has a great YouTube channel but this book is undeniably a really great bbq cookbook. As per usual his beautiful crisp photography that looks like a movie and a ton of steaks. He really specializes in beef. What makes him unique is that Guga is not held down by tradition so the recipes in the book are a mix of backdoor American bbq and Brazilian influences, which i as a Brazilian really enjoy. At this point in his career, he isn't shy of going all out and having crazy expensive burger recipes, literal "heart attack burgers" and also coating random shit in either bacon or Doritos. It's fun and full of recipes so it fits in nicely with the collection of bbq cookbooks.
