Customer Reviews

If you REALLY like ribs - Get this book!

This book is a true rib lover's treasure. The first 33 pages (nicely photo-illustrated) have everything you need to know about types of ribs, meat preparation techniques and cooking methods. After that, it's nothin' but ribs baby!Be ready to make a tough decision though - which recipe to do first. There are mouth-watering pictures of almost every recipe, and so far, we have not found one we didn't like. This is a cookbook that rib lovers will want to work their way through from cover to cover this summer.My family's favorite so far is the Carolina Barbecued Ribs (bottom photo - back cover). These have both a rub and a mop and will take you to straight to "Hog Heaven". (If you have little ones or don't like spicy, cut back on the chili powder for this one. It's pretty hot.)I own LOTS of rib recipe books and this one is by far the best. It's packed with at least one full summer of the best rib-tasting you'll ever enjoy, but you'll return to the recipes in this book again and again.

Great BBQ

We try a new recipe each week out of this book and haven't found a bad one yet -- they're GREAT! The marinades are equally good on chicken and pork tenderloin.

Fabulous book

I took a cooking class from Hugh based on this book and learned how to make ribs cooked in an oven taste almost as good as ones from a outdoor grill. My husband refuses to cook outdoors due to mosquitos and humidity. Hugh's recipes are fabulous, so good that I bought the book to get more. You won't believe the different ways to cook scrumptious ribs.

A unique conglomeration of rib recipies.

This is a unique and revolutionary approach to the "rib cuisine". The variety of techniques for cooking and the unique flavors employed bogle the mind. It is sophisticated in results, but very easily accomplished by all levels of people with various cooking skills. Highly recommended.
