In his most ambitious book ever, Steven Raichlen combines the exploits of Marco Polo, Christopher Columbus, and Vasco da Gama traveling to Asia to Australia to Africa; throughout Europe and all the Americas to discover the world’s rich larder of barbecue, in all its gritty glory. Sample Singapore’s Best Beef Sate, Turkish Roasted Pumpkin Dip, Basque Country Salt-Crusted Rib Steak, Brazilian Pork Schnitzel, The USA’s Ultimate Hamburger, Malaysian Turmeric Prawns, Israeli Turkey Shawarma, Moroccan “Iceberg” Game Hens, Mexican S’Mores--Steven reaches deeper to present an advanced course in the world of grilling. His festive smorgasbord of flavors will keep grills happily humming for years to come. Each visited country is featured in a lively in-depth piece that reflects its barbecue culture. As well, meet the world’s great grill masters in their own write-ups, and the world’s great grilling gear--the braziers, mangals, tandirs, tandoors, rotisseries, fire-pits, and fire places. Lots of live-fire cooking for Father’s Day.
