Barbecue by Eric Treuille and Birgit Erath
Published by Dorling Kindersley in 2007

Now that summer’s here, it’s time to fire up the charcoal, grab the tongs and discover how to use smoke, spice, and sizzle to mouth-watering effect. Barbeque by Eric Treuille and Birgit Erath tells you how to do just that. Instead of limiting yourself to sausages and burgers, try one of the 150 recipes which include spice-crusted tuna with Thai citrus dressing, chargrilled fillet steak with salsa verde and grill roast cinnamon rum bananas.

Treuille's tastes are firmly New World and Nouveaux - the dishes span across Asian, Mexican, European, Middle Eastern and American cuisines and take their strength from accompanying marinades, glazes or flavored butters.

There are chapters on meats, seafood and vegetables plus sauces and salsas, salads and sides. With each recipe, a think ahead tip tells what can be done in advance.
Fantastic photographs accompany the recipes and close-up photography illustrates simple basics and advanced skills. There is practical information on using gas and charcoal barbecues, advice on the best tools, using fire safely and judging when food is ready to eat.

No matter what the weather brings, year-round grilling is assured with indoor as well as outdoor cooking instructions for every recipe.
