Simply Grilling - a book review

I love grilling. The confluence of smell, anticipation, and aura are the perfect blend. Therefore, I also love learning about grilling as well. That is why I am reviewing, “Simply Grilling” by Jennifer Chandler. As is similar to other grilling books, “Simply Grilling,” starts with general information about grilling, Charcoal vs. Gas, Direct vs. Indirect, and more general theory. This was good stuff, not necessarily unique, but just good information. Then, the recipes, wow. The recipes section is very nicely formatted. The recipes are “tabbed.” The tabs are for whether the recipe can be easily varied, marinated, done ahead, grilled inside, etc. The recipes look good and I love the simple approach. I have gone through the book and “dog-eared” about half of the recipes. I am excited to use both the recipes as well as the ideas on our grill. Whether its taste combinations, methods for grilling, or ways to make grilling simpler, sometimes a book like this is needed to spur the mind to think outside the box. “Simply grilling” is a nice combination of all of the above and it is packaged in a beautiful book with stunning pictures. We look forward to putting these ideas into practice and expanding our grilling repertoire in a simple but delicious way.
