Product Description
Smoke & Spice, the best-selling and James Beard Award-winning cookbook that revolutionized backyard home cooking, has been completely revised and updated to include 400 recipes. Culinary experts Cheryl and Bill Jamison use their barbecue savvy to show that smoke-cooked barbecue-- what many believe to be "real" barbecue and the province of pitmasters and Southern barbecue joints-- can be mastered by anyone. The first cookbook solely devoted to the subject, Smoke & Spice remains the definitive guide to authentic smoke-cooked barbecue. The book also features information on equipment and techniques, as well as recipes for a variety of rubs, mops, marinades, sauces, appetizers, sides, desserts, and drinks.

Amazon.com Review
Barbecue is not about grilling food fast over high heat. That's something else, delicious in its own right, but something else entirely. Barbecue is about marginal cuts of meat (for the most part), about smoke, about fires burning so low and slow you hardly ever see the flicker of a flame. Barbecue is about succulent pork ribs as dark as sin just falling off the bone and dripping with glorious sweet pork godliness. Or enjoying the effects that 12 to 18 hours of smoking has on beef brisket. The trick is, how do you do it? How do you master a cooking technique all but ignored in favor of fast and hot? The answer lies in Smoke & Spice. Authors Jamison and Jamison provide all the information you're ever going to need to run a real barbecue. Tips and techniques abound on every page--accompanied with countless recipes that stretch the barbecue imagination. And seeing that one cannot live on barbecue alone (though that's a challenge well worth considering) there are just as many recipes included for all the good food that accompanies barbecue--from Scalloped Green Chile Potatoes to South-of-the-Border Garlic Soup to Buttermilk Onion Rings and even Bourbon Peaches. If smoke in your eyes makes your mouth water, this is the primer for you! --Schuyler Ingle

"Smoking Gun" by Juan Rivas (Flatwoods, KY USA) 5 Stars
November 19, 2009
We own many books and most cover 1 or two dishes and then goes on with everything else. We have always wanted a book that will give us a different view of the outdoors cooking and the art of "smoking". We found it. If you are in the market for a good book, look no more, this is an excellent selection. It mixes quality recipies, cooking techniques, and gives you the history and and background to bring it together, which makes it an interesting read; a "Smoking gun" and plus in my opinion. Our smoked dishes are delicious and the talk of the neighborhood friends, as we shared our first smoked dishes with them. This book will be a good buy! One thing I would love to have with this book was a Spiral-bound for ease of use.

Covers Everything by N. Fornario 5 Stars
October 18, 2009
While I barbecue allot; I'm no pit master. This is the first, and seems like the last book I will need on barbecuing recipes. I got it since it gets tiring eating the same old Q, no matter how good it taste. The tips, and history makes it a nice read. I can't see how you will go wrong. I think it's worth the money,enjoy.

Best Cookbook Ever by Nanette H (Jeannette, PA) 5 Stars
August 16, 2009
I purchased a smoker for my husband for his birthday and wanted a cookbook for ideas. This cookbook is one of the best cookbooks I ever purchased. It has great rub recipes (that are the best ever) and bbq sauce recipes. We will never by bottled bbq sauce again. I even made the coleslaw recipe from this book and is was wonderful. I would highly recommend this cookbook to anyone!
