With her unmatched grilling knowledge, dynamic presence,
and passion for outdoor cooking, Elizabeth Karmel has
broken through the ranks of the "boys of barbecue" to offer
a fresh voice on the grilling scene. This North Carolina
native has made the backyard grill her domain, and in
Taming the Flame, she shows you how to make grilling simple
and fun for everyday cooking and entertaining. If you're slowly warming up to the idea of grilling, you'll
love the way she explains the basics, from choosing a grill
and other equipment to knowing when to use the direct or
indirect cooking method. If you're an accomplished griller,
you'll get recipes and tips to take your grill skills to
the next level. Expand your repertoire with this definitive
book that reveals proven grilling secrets, delves into the
fine points of authentic barbecue (time and smoke are key),
and encourages you to be more adventurous. More than 350 recipes in Taming the Flame offer a wealth of
choices for any occasion. They range from down-home to
uptown—from Bubba's Bunch Barbecued Baby Back Ribs to Bacon-
Wrapped Sea Scallops, from Kenny's Wings of Fire to Salt-
Cured Duck Breast with Fig Jam. Twelve "Grilling 101"
guides feature expert advice and basic recipes for burgers,
steaks, poultry, fish, lamb, vegetables, pizza, and more.
Karmel's signature Grilling Trilogy highlights the inherent
flavor of grilled foods and makes grilling classic
favorites easy. Not all the recipes are hot off the grill. Some will
complement your grill creations, including nibbles and bits
(your crowd will clamor for the tumbled tomatoes), salads
(some grilled, some not) and side dishes, and desserts
(including the Best Apple Pie You've Ever Eaten and Zesty
Lemon Bars). Libations ranging from Rockin' Chair Lemonade
to Pomegranate Margaritas will liven up any cookout! There are sixteen color pages showing tantalizing dishes
and dozens of black-and-white photos detailing techniques—
plus helpful cooking time charts, menu ideas, a grilling
dictionary, and a source guide. With Karmel's love of good
food and good times evident on every page, and her warmth
and humor sprinkled generously throughout the book, Taming
the Flame will get you fired up about grilling just about
anything—anytime, in any weather.
