Customer Reviews

Light your Fire!

If you are a fan of Bobby Flay or his tv show, Boy Meets Grill then you will love his new cookbook.

Flay takes you back to the basics of using your grill and determining whether your dish is cooked to your liking.

There's lots of wonderful recipes that are sure to be loved at cookouts.

perfect book for summer

If, like me, you like to barbecue as soon as the temperature allows, this is the book for you. Although "burgers and dogs" have their place in the grill hall of flame, parties always needs a little variety. All of the recipes are easy to follow, and weren't overly complicated or "scary." I was confident enough with this cookbook to invite friends over for dinner... when I had never even tried to make the recipes before! And the flavors, while intense and unique enough to wow my culinary sensibilities also impressed my friends, who had never before even heard of "tamarind" or "turmeric!" It's hard to find any cookbook which can appeal to such a varied crowd - let alone one written especially with grilling in mind.

Bobby Flay's cookbook gives you a number of great options for your every culinary whim as well as your big barbecue extravaganzas! If you like to grill, I recommend this book for you!

Consider my fire lit!

This book seriously rocks! I am an admitted grilling novice and yet, being a Flay fan, I thought I had to give it a try. And I am so glad that I did. I tried the pepper crusted steak with mint chimichurri sauce over the Memorial Day weekend (yum!) and was so encouraged by the rave reviews that I got from my friends that I decided to do a whole Flay party last weekend. I followed his menu for "Greek on the Grill" and couldn't have been happier. Everything I tried had just the right combination of flavors and textures. After some ouzo, my friends and I thought that we were on the beaches in Santorini. I'd reccomend this book to everyone - and I do. My dad is getting one for Father's Day!
