The Grilling Encyclopedia: An A-to-Z Compendium of How ... (ISBN 0871135639)

Amazon.com Review:
With the understandable exceptions of I, N, U, and X, this is a comprehensive A-to-Z compendium of how to grill almost anything. Sinnes goes from Abalone to Zucchini with welcome clarity and great gastronomic expertise, then lards his instructions with great stories and a delicate wit, such that you start out looking for a dinner recipe but get lost reading eggplant lore.

Well done! (get it?):
This is the best grill reference out there. It's concise, accurate, and comprehensive. Includes recipes for excellent dry rubs, marinades, and side dishes. More than a reference, it's easy and fun to read. I've used this book for the past four years as a guide to grill everything from steaks and burgers to corn-on-the-cob, bananas, pizza - even Thanksgiving dinner!

Best Yet:
This is the best grilling book I've run across. The helpful tips and detail descriptions really make it a must for anyone that is just starting to grill.

Wonderful reference!:
Being new at grilling, I needed a complete guide and this book, The Grilling Encyclopedia, just fit the bill. Perfect! SO much information and laid out beautifully - very easy to use!

An excellent reference on techniques and ingredients:
From a weekend barbecue warrior: This is really an excellent reference for ingredients, tips and techniques on grilling and barbecuing. Very practical and useful since the information is well organized, with cross-references to related topics, recipes, equipment and ingredients. But be aware, this reference includes a few recipes, but it isn't a complete collection of recipes, if that is what you are looking for, you might want to try "The Barbecue Bible" or "The Gas Grilling Gourmet". And as I always say: always enjoy the experience of barbecuing and grilling at home, with or without this book. With your own recipes or with borrowed recipes. Just enjoy the moment and have a lot of fun with family and friends around the grill.
