As an avid office fan- I had to get Brian Baumgartner’s cook book. It did not disappoint! So many great recipes I have looking forward to trying!

Barbecuing is one of my families favourite way to cook and eat. and this book has everything you need to make a good barbecue meal a success. Great recipes that are easy to use and follow, different styles of BBQ, and all you need to know about BBQ-ing with history, hints, tips and more.

The pages of this book will make you hungry so get preparing and cooking and you won't look back. Enjoy old favourites and new and interesting ideas. You won't regret it.

Thank you NetGalley and Fox Chapel Publishing for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.

What do you get when you cross an upstate New Yorker and a Southerner? A serious disagreement on what barbecue is! I, the NYer, say it is a method of cooking...only a method. To cook outside. To barbecue, steaks, hot dogs, etc. For my husband, it is a food group of roasted, often smoked meats with flavorful, sometimes spicy treatments. Decades have passed and I've come to appreciate the South's beloved. While I have mastered our own concoction, I am anxious to learn more. After investing in a smoker, I am thrilled to see a new book by Brian Baumgartner, Seriously Good Barbecue Cookbook. I am so anxious to get busy on some of these recipes, especially the North Carolina style, which hubby adores. In addition to just plain fun and drool-worthy, I love a cookbook you can actually read and learn, exactly how they should all be!

Thank you to NetGalley and Fox Chapel Publishing for the advanced peek into hubby's world. You'll probably be on his Christmas card list forever.

Seriously Good Barbecue focuses on different regional barbecue recipes and the accompaniments.

The Sections are
All About Barbecue: history, essentials, cooking techniques, etc.
Brian’s Recipes
Kansas-City Style
Texas-Style
Southern-Style
Other Regions
International
Seafood
Barbecue Takes
Sies
Sauces, Rubs, and Marinades
Sweet Treats
Thirst Quenchers

Each recipe has a recipe blurb, servings, prep time, cook time, ingredients, directions, and tips. Each recipe includes a picture of the food. One thing is on some recipes it says to use barbecue of your choice which I wish he would say the brand he used or the page of which barbecue sauce from the cookbook as there are multiple recipes (ex: Mom’s BBQ Chicken).

There are some classic recipes, but some more unique ones likeStrawberry Soda Pork Spareribs.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Who’s ready to get to summertime and barbecuing?! ☀️👙🍉 Me!! Had a little throwback to cookouts and summer days. Ready for it!🫶🏻 This book is full of so many good ideas for summer night cookouts. I actually got my husband to read a book with this one 😉 The pictures were fantastic, descriptions very well explained, and I loved the variety of things. We picked so many we want to try that we think our family will love Plus, it’s Brian Baumgartner from The Office, so of course it was great! This book comes out June 10, perfect for the summer. Add it to your TBR list, or for a fun gift idea. Thank you @netgalley @foxchapelpublishing @bbbaumgartner for this fantastic book!

Another winner!!!! I cannot wait to try quite a few of the recipes in this book. My only regret is I do not have a smoker to try them all !!! Recipes are listed in a way that seems easy to follow. And the end results pictures made my mouth water. A couple of the recipes call for a smoker, but I wil follow the recipes as far as ingredients and preparation, and slow roast in oven. Can’t wait to try them. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book in return of my honest opinion of the book. Receiving the book in this manner had no bearing on my thoughts.
