Customer Reviews

Great Father's Day Gift

Overall comment is it is really a nice book. The recipes are fairly simple and generally have common ingredients. A lot of cook books ask for some weird stuff that you have to drive across town just to get. I like how the author gave variations to some recipes. I also really like each comment beforehand. It gave a more personal touch on each recipe and something perhaps the reader could identify with. I have been to Turtle Creek Mansion in Dallas so that was nice to see plus the recipe from Hawaii.

Fun book -- great pictures

Heard about this book in last week's New York Sun. I've made three recipe in preparation for my memorial day party. All of them have been delicious.

Yummy Burger Book!

What a fantastic cookbook! It has inspired me to create all sorts of wonderful burgers that I never imagined possible! This book would make a great buy, well for just about anyone.

WHAT A GREAT BURGER BOOK!!

I consider myself a burger expert and this book is nothing short of pure genius. It is well written, includes beautiful photos that are guaranteed to make your mouth water and incorporates simple, yet delicious recipes that will stand the test of time. If you dare call yourself a carnivore (and even if you don't) than I whole heartedly recommend you order this book. You will not be disappointed.

Not your average burger!!

Not only do you get new beef burger recipes, but also step by step instructions to creating lamb, chicken, buffalo, turkey, seafood and tofu burgers (to name a few). There is a handy list of burger do's and don'ts. I love the burger and side dish recipes contributed by celebrity chefs with famous restaurants. Finally, the stuffed blue cheese burger with apple and bacon rocks!!!!
