Funny as hell and fattening too...
30 Jun 2004
Format:Paperback
The evilest cookbook I've seen... even worse than Kill it and Grill it. Not bad as in bad food but bad as in addictingly good food that will cause your vegan freinds to suicide. Heck, the bacon grease even gets into the biscuits and the veggies...(I think there is a veggie somewhere in here). Seriously, this is one heck of a book that makes recipes the way Grandma did: does it taste good and will it put meat on your bones. The answer to both is yes.
So far we have tried six recipes and they are all keepers. Well, after the author told us about the flour. The fudge wasn't bad but the brownies are "worth a walk." Normally, I'd consider a cookbook a keeper for 2 recipes and we are well past that now.
Add to outrageous good but fattening recipes, a sick twisted humor that somehow avoided the political correctness virus and you have a cookbook that almost promises hours of entertainment when given to your vegan peace-nik co-workers.

Superb!!
23 July 2004
Format:Paperback
Just got it a couple of days ago, and I've been chuckling ever since. The author is apparently half-insane, but that's okay, as his insanity seems to stem from the extreme oppression that the food police so delight in inflicting on ordinary mortals.
This book may be offensive to the joyless and easily offended, but, hey, you can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs. That is also okay, as the joyless and easily offended probably prefer bean sprouts and tofu anyway.
I found his chapter on barbeque, in particular, very useful. Pay strict attention to his dissertation on cast iron skillets. I believe there may be a typo in the discussion on red-eye gravy. IMHO, red-eye gravy needs to be made with coffee, not water. Sure, you can make ham gravy with water, but then it's just gravy, not red-eye. Your mileage may vary.
If you enjoy life, you will enjoy this book and should buy it for yourself. If your life is plagued by professional killjoys, buy it as a gift for them just to be annoying. Either way, you win!
If you don't enjoy life - well, go forth, eat your raw carrots in peace, and let history forget you were ever our countryman.

"WARNING!!! THIS BOOK IS A CHOKING HAZARD!! DO NOT READ WHILE EATING. It is hilarious. And the recipes, should I ever get around to trying them, look like the greatest thing since Mom's. (or mine)".
