BBQ Cook Books
I have just read a thread where someone mentioned that they had bought a bbq book from boots and I thought this was a fantastic Christmas present idea for my Oz boyf this year before we return to Oz next year!
I have had a look on Amazon and have found the following three books and just wondered if anyone else had purchased these and what they thought of them (bit of a long shot but hey worth a try! )
Barbeque Bible by Steven Raichlen
Blistering Barbeque by Kate Tunnicliff
The Barbeque Book - Burgers to Banquets by Jim Marks

Erm, I haven't looked at it. When he gets home I'll ask him where he's hid it and have a proper look.
I've told hubby that BBQ's are mens work and I have no interest in anything except eating it.

Re: BBQ Cook Books
My wife bought me a book on barbecuing and it's full of scantily clad women!?!? Talk about getting me interested in cooking!! I can't even remember who it's by and what it's called (honest, I have been looking at the recipes!!) Ahem - not sure it'll be any use here mind and I think perhaps I'll give some of these others a go instead?!?! If anyone IS interested in an idiots guide to barbecuing, with lots of 'blokey' jokes in then let me know and I'll point you in the right direction.....

All I've learnt is to get it all piping hot, like at least half way up the temp gauge as a starter, then cook very quickly, turning as little as possible.
Poms seem to turn and turn and turn and play all day.
