Soaked, Slathered, and Seasoned: A Complete Guideto Flavoring Food for the Grill

Because if you do, you will never get it back. I am on my third copy now, because my freinds keep "forgetting" to return the copy I lent them. First, page through the book. Second, spend the next hour trying to decide what you want to make first!! I have used recipes from this book at least twice a week since I received it in early May. Everytime, the finished product has been a great success. Easy to understand that I have been a huge fan of Elizabeth's for quite some time now. Her recipes are at the same time inventive and straight forward. This latest book has easily become my bible for upping the ante for every BBQ I host or attend. The added bonus is the story line behind the recipes. Makes reading a cookbook fun. This is a definate must have addition to Elizabeth's other books, Taming The Flame and Pizza On The Grill

You'll want to cook your way through this entire book. Filled with classic favorites and dozens flavorful twists, it's sure to become an oft-used part of your cooking arsenal. From brines and marinades to rubs and sauces, Elizabeth Karmel expertly and deliciously covers it all--and then some. I'm honored that a few of my recipes are included, too! Recipes run the gamut from vegetables to all cuts of meat and for both grilling and barbecue. This book is a must for people serious about cooking with fire.

Beautiful book!! This is a cookbook I love to read and refer to over and over again. Not like others that I buy and try but never pick up again.Good, comprehensive and smart! Elizabeth is charming and fun. The pictures are beautiful. Susie

After getting this book I paged through it and immediately started thinking about ways to spice up my cooking. I am an avid griller and also enjoy smoking food and am always looking for new ways to marinade meat. I have been following Elizabeth for a long time and this book really takes the cake as far as her cookbooks go. I know it will get a lot of use. Not only does she make it simple to make greek chicken or incredible lamb chops, she gives you a map on how to make your own tastes translate into successful new dishes. I would have to say that it is the ultimate kitchen reference for anyone who loves or even just likes to cook. In a matter of moments you can enjoy all the tips and tricks that it seems like the author has learned from all the friends she has made over the years. Buy this book, you will actually use it!

Elizabeth Karmel did it again! I loved her first book on grilling but this one is a slam dunk! It gives you all the basics of grilling and then every way you could possibly marinade, brine, sauce and spice up your grilled food. I couldn't wait to try the Pernod Brine for Salmon, what a cool idea. It was amazing! There are about 20 brines, you can even make your own pastrami brine! The butters are awesome too. For all courses, sweet and savory, on the grill, this is the only book you need (and its not big and cumbersome). I'M FIRED UP!
