Weber's Art of the Grill: Recipes for Outdoor Living

Product Description

The art of grilling means so much more than burgers around the picnic table. Whether using charcoal kettle barbecues or gleaming top-of-the-line backyard kitchens, today's grill lovers can create a fantastic range of sophisticated dishes. Folks are firing up the barbecue more often than ever these days, and no one understands the lure of the flame like the people at weber, the preeminent maker of home grills. Their delightful cookbook brings grilling to a whole new level. It starts off with techniques, tricks, and tools of the trade; includes basic sauces, bastes, rubs, and marinades; and continues with more than 100 fabulous recipes for everything from your classic burger and perfect steak to succulent garlic-mint chicken, spicy swordfish, and vegetarian entrees with a smoky accent. And to quench an outdoor thirst, there are ideas for the right wine or microbrew to serve with them. Also included are tips for entertaining with sizzle and menu suggestions for both casual and celebratory occasions. Full of festive and luscious photographs, weber's Art of the Grill is a year-round treat for any backyard chef.

This is a nice book if you are trying to decide between gas and charcoal. I thought it made more of a nice coffee table book. There is a lot of 'story' about the grill and not as many recipes as I was looking for. It is a nice hard cover book though, and there are some good recipes.


This book has wonderful color pictures, excellent recipes and it is a steal at this price. So far the recipes have been awesome. Five stars!


I bought this book when it first came out several years ago. At that time it sort of intimidated me and it sat unused on the shelf until recently. What prompted me to take another look was the acquisition of a new Weber Performer. The astute will recognize that the Performer is a charcoal grill and that this book is based on gas grilling. Frankly, this book is all about recipes; really, really good recipes. Anyone familiar with charcoal cooking will be able to build a low, medium, or hot fire and make the adjustment to use this book. Believe me it is no big deal and you will be rewarded with some of the best food you ever tasted. The author of this book, Jamie Purviance, really knows what he is doing. I would say that this book is tailored to the intermediate to advanced cook. The recipes are complete, but the instructions assume a certain level of competence. For someone just starting out, I think the Cook's Illustrated grilling book is an excellent addition as it takes the reader step by step through not just the recipe, but also the techniques necessary to cook the food. The CI book covers both gas and charcoal for each and every recipe, too, which can help the reader of the Art of the Grill adjust for charcoal. I find both books indispensable with the Art of the Grill offering superior recipes, and the CI book offering superior techniques.




This is a great book for any grill afficiendo...lot's of great ideas, including literally every course, from appetizers to desserts!

Worth the money.


Weber is known for great grills and who better to make a cookbook on getting the most out of them. Weber's Art of the Grill is filled with huge, full color photographs of just about every recipe offered, which is a must-have trait for me that many cookbooks lack. The recipies are definitely a little on the "high brow" side, so if you are really just looking for new ways to make burgers and dogs this is not the book for you. But if things like swordfish with mango salsa sound good to you, pick this up right away!


I purchased Weber's Art of the Grill at the same time as Weber's Big Book of Grilling. I feel that with this book they went for a more upscale level of grilling which is fine. I would recommend this book to anyone new to grilling or an old pro. It is well layed out and the pictures are of high quality. As in the other Weber cookbooks, the format is easy to use and well thought out. If you are looking for a more "beginner" Weber grilling book check out Weber's Big Book of Grilling, you can't go wrong with it. I was glad I purchased both.


Profusely illustrated with the color photography of Tim Turner, and enhanced with an informative foreword by Mike Kempster, Sr., Weber's Art Of The Grill: Recipes For Outdoor Living by writer and recipe developer Jamie Purviance is dedicated to offering a wealth of recipes especially suitable for use with a Weber grill and the experience of outdoor cooking/dining. From Teriyaki Chicken Wings; Swordfish Kabobs with Roasted Red Pepper Aioli; and Prime Rib with Texas Dry Rub; to Smoky Pulled Pork Sandwich; Moroccan Butterflied Leg of Lamb; Caribbean Swordfish Steaks with Mango Salsa; and Grilled Tuna Nicoise, Weber's Art Of The Grill is a superb resource for elegant, appetizing, and recommended dining experiences whether in the back yard or on a camping vacation.


The book is well illustrated and has some interesting recipes, but if you are looking for a grilling book, this is not it. There are recipes for deserts and salads. Only a small number of recipes for burgers, chickens or steaks. I believe less than 20 total..... <p>I highly recommend Burger Meisters by Marcel Desauliner which is the best burger book around.<p>Also "Hot Barbeque" for other barbeque recipes.


Last night we were visiting friends. I noticed this book in their cookbook collection because Weber's are the best grills. I thought it was going to be a fluffy coffee table book and I could see some pictures of food to prepare for the dinner we were making. It is that and much more. Turning each page is a wonderful looking recipe with a great picture of what it should look like. This could be a great book to leave on the coffee table.<p>I have looked through recipe books before. We recently bought a church cookbook with hundreds of recipes. "Weber's Art of the Grill" had more mouth watering recipes than that entire church cookbook. I can't wait for someone to buy me my own copy so I can start trying the recipes.


the art of grilling is simple straight forward and yet some of the best food in taste and sight that I have found.The sauces are greattttt.
