About the Product

Bringing Back the Art of the Family Meal

The days of the family regularly sitting down to dinner together are long gone for most people. Everyone’s just too busy. That’s why grillin’ for the family is so important. It transforms mealtime into an event and individuals into family-whether it’s one person or fifty, whether they’re related or not. Smokin’ Willie’s Guide to Great Grillin’ was written to make sure that no matter how much cooking experience you have-from novice to master chef-your family and friends will eagerly gather and devote at least part of the conversation to singing the praises of your grillin’ efforts.

Of course, great meals are about a lot more than main dishes, so Smokin’ Willie made sure to cover all the bases. You’ll find amazing recipes for appetizers, sides and desserts. And it doesn’t end there. You get sections on Group Fixin’s for when you really have a gang, sandwiches that will redefine the concept, and a section on marinades, sauces & butters that will take familiar favorites to a whole new level.

But don’t get the idea that Smokin’ Willie has ignored the ever-important main course. You’ll find yourself grillin’ some fantastic things that include, then go far beyond, steaks and chicken. There’s even a recipe for Grilled Tofu that will tempt the most committed carnivore.

All the recipes are clearly explained, easy to execute, and can be accomplished on gas, charcoal or even electric barbecues. In fact, you can even get a pretty good barbecue flavor making these treats in the oven or on the stovetop. The recipes start out with a story, and end with tips for good music to listen to as you cue.

Most of all, Smokin’ Willie’s Guide will make it easy for you to relax, enjoy the grillin’ experience, and produce meals where your family can taste the care and fun that went into them.
