Review: More for someone new to smoking meat, and well worth it. - I don't usually write reviews, so this is a little outside my usual experience. My family got me a smoker for Christmas and I've been looking for tips and tricks as I learn to use it. I found Jeff on his website, which was full of interesting an helpful information. So much so, that when I saw he had written a book, I decided to give it a try. I've been impressed with the recipes in the book. We decided to smoke up a bunch of chicken this last weekend and even as a newbie, I was able to produce a great spread by using this book. You can look at the table of contents for an idea of what's covered. The first, informational chapters, are very much on point. They inform without being overly wordy and pretty much cover all the basics of using a smoker to safely produce a great meal. The chapters on different meats give advice on how to cook each one successfully. The sides chapter gave us a great recipe for "Fire Corn". My family is excited to get more from me and I look forward to trying more of the recipes in the book and getting better at using the smoker I have. This is definitely a book that's more pointed to a newbie like me and I'm glad I found it.
Review: The bible of cooking - Every aspect of cooking meats the proper and tasting wat. Didn't realize there was a lot to learn from this book. Now I can achieve better tasting food that the whole family enjoys.

*by L***M on October 23, 2014*

This book is WONDERFUL! I received the Masterbuilt electric smoker for my birthday and sadly, it contained no cook book or information on how and what to cook! I searched Amazon for a book that was specific to what I wanted - lots of pictures and step by step instructions. This book has everything I could possibly need - and then some! The recipes are awesome and the author does such an amazing job of explaining what wood chips provide the best flavor for the food items you are cooking. He also gives pointers on rubs to make and marinades, and gives a summary on each recipe and what the outcome will be. I plan to cook our Thanksgiving turkey in my smoker this year using his recipe. I love this book, and also the cute drawings depicting what each chapter contains.
