Summary: By Meat Lovers, for meat lovers
Comment: It is refreshing to read a cook book about meat that does not apologize for appreciating our carnivorous urges. Written by unabashed fans of meat, it is an extremely well done specialty cookbook.
The book begins with a description of the history of meat production in North American and how it impacts the way we need to cook meat. It then moves on to described detailed cooking methods and to which cuts of meat these methods apply. I found the advise in this section to be very valuable.
Then for each of type of meat (beef, pork, lamb, veal) the book describes the type of cuts available, how to buy the best of each type of cut and how to use each cut. The come the recipes.
Each recipe is broken down into the flavouring step (usually a rub or marinade) and then detailed cooking instructions. The recipes do not follow the cooking school approach of providing a master or basic recipe followed by variations. Most of the recipes stand alone, although the authors do make suggestions on where to use which rubs/marinades with which cuts of meat. In addition, the book details preparation time, appropriateness for entertaing or budget concious recipes.
The recipes themselves are absolutely delicious and use readily available ingredients. I know that I often only make 2 or 3 recipes from a given cookbook. However, I have made almost every recipe from this one.
Overall, this is an excellent specialty cookbook.

Summary: A Fabulous Cookbook
Comment: This is by far the best cookbook I have (and I have a lot). The book is not only a collection of great recipes, but it teaches you how to select the best cuts of meat. I've never been a big meat eater, but I've tried at least two dozen recipes from this book, and loved every one. The recipes are very easy to follow and don't use strange or hard to find items. Definitely 5 stars! A must for every kitchen!

Summary: Absolutely Horrible
Comment: How many people realize what you are really eating? You are eating animal tissue and that, in my oppinion, is disgusting. Not to mention, meat is incredibly unhealthy and it is much more nutritious to go without it. VISIT PETA2.com for info!!!
