Cookbooks

This, ladies and gentlemen, is more than a simple cookbook. It is a rallying cry. It is a whoop, a holler, a hail, and a salaam. In The Good Stuff Cookbook, former Top Chef star Chef Spike Mendelsohn takes all-American comfort food and spices it up. Based on menu items from his wildly popular new restaurant, Good Stuff Eatery, these 120 mouthwatering recipes offer a fast, fun, and completely fresh approach to classics.

"Good times and good friends" is the motto when you're making these signature recipes that are perfect for groups of any size. For a starter, you can bring the wedge back with a twist and try a fresh Fennel, Orange, and Pomegranate Wedge salad. Everyone will love these crowd-pleasing recipes for beef, turkey, chicken, pork, and lamb burgers, especially when topped with Chef Spike's one-of-a-kind Good Stuff Sauce or spicy Curry Mayonnaise. Try the amazing hand-cut fries or shake things up with Baked Sweet Potato Fries or Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus. Don't forget to finish up with a handspun milkshake, malt, or classic float and everyone will leave your table with a smile.

You'll also find a section of hip and simple party dishes that includes luscious treats like decadent Cinnamon Twisted Donuts and cold, refreshing Margarita Slushies. With lists of vital pantry items and must-have kitchen tools, you'll have everything you need to eat simple, fresh, and great food, whether you're hosting a big crowd or just cooking for one.

Chef Spike believes in American comfort food made from the very best farm-fresh ingredients. The Good Stuff Cookbook shows you how to add that gourmet touch to the traditional burger-and-fries combo to create good food and good times. This is an aspirational, inspirational cookbook for enjoying the good stuff in life—handmade burgers, hand-cut fries, and handspun ice cream you'll crave again and again.
