 It's
almost barbecue season and if you're ready for the ultimate cookout food,
then you're ready for Ribs: A Connoisseur's Guide to Barbecuing and
Grilling by Christopher B. O'Hara (with mouth watering photographs
by William Nash). This is the quintessential rib guide. You'll get recipes
for just about every rib variation available as well as spice rubs, marinades
and mops, as well as a tutorial guide to one of America's favorite foods.
After covering the necessary tools, equipment, smokers and barbecues,
you'll learn the basics such as the various types of meat, getting the
coals started and the best cooking methods before graduating to preparing
the meat and the essentials of marinades and dry rubs. O'Hara even includes
a glossary of the best bottled barbecue sauces, in case you're feeling
lazy and don't want to make your own.
 While
ribs may be a classic of American cuisine, we hardly have the lock on
this wonderful dish. Not to worry, countries around the globe are well
represented in O' Hara's recipes, from Cantonese Pork Ribs to Jerk Rubbed
Island Style Ribs to South American Barbecue Sauce to Korean Bulkogi (beef
short ribs). Of course, you'll also find recipes for American classics
such as Texas Style Ribs, North Carolina Ribs and Kansas City Ribs, as
well as a host of original variations like Citrus Barbecued Ribs, Stovetop
Ribs and even ribs made with Dr. Pepper!
The recipes and techniques in this book can turn you into a barbecue
master, much to the delight of hungry friends and family. If you enjoy
outdoor cooking, this book is a must (unless you're a vegetarian)!
