Barbecue With Beard (Outdoor Recipes From A Great Cook)

ISBN: 0307487199

Author: James Beard

Condition: New

This is the second title change of the cookbook The Complete Book of Barbecue & Rotisserie Cooking that was originally released in 1954. The books would be released not only as "Jim Beard", but also "James Beard" and "James A, Beard". Indeed "James Beard" is what most of his books were published under.

From the James Beard Foundation:
These were the barbecue years, when presidents like Ike were photographed at the barbecue grill. Beards definition of barbecue and rotisserie cookery was elastic-he included recipes and suggestions for picnic food such as sandwiches, oil-and-garlic sauce for spaghetti (in a chapter on Serving Sauces), and clam chowder for a big party. This slim volume was an early example of a cookbook genre that remains popular today.
