Cooking to the Xtreme!!!

This book is exciting - so much more than a cookbook - you get insite into great athletes - fabulous photos - fun ideas - exciting entertaining tips your mother never told you - and some pretty darn good recipes! This was a fun read - Robert Earl captures the essence of eexxttrreemmee!

grandad going extreme

well, i'd have to say I was surprised. I hear my grandkids talking about all the x-games and extreme sports, so i thought it would be cool to get into their world, seeing how I am now 78 years old. the recipes sound pretty good and even though i won't be getting on a skateboard anytime soon, I think the ettiquete and manners section of the book will lend some insight the the younger set. soo from the rock and roll Granda I say go get it. great stocking stuffer.

look out Martha stewart

well, after hearing about the book from a NPR radio show in southern California and Robert Earl arriving to the show with food cooked on the grill of his car I had to check it out, sounded like something my boyfriend needed for christmas. after purchasing the book, i was pleasantly surprised by the ettiquette sections and, well I have to admit a few of the recipes where pretty darn good. so as I thought this will make a perfect gift for my boyfriend and will especially be an excuse for him to brush up on his manners and possibly even make me a pleasant dinner. the only problem is i have to order another book i'm keeping the first copy for myself. hope this helps

supercharged

This cookbook is as supercharged as the athletes who contributed their own style of cuisine (however off the wall it may seem to some people). Robert Earl represented them well. I particularly enjoyed the artistic way this cookbook was compiled - great photos, humorous writings, important etiquette tips (someone must have taught him well), and some great receipes for everyone who has the pleasure of purchasing this exciting new bookbook.Mahalo Robert Earl, this is the first cookbook I picked up and couldn't put it down! Aloha!
