A well rounded, fun cookbook! I’m so excited to try these recipes. Most of the time, when reading a cookbook, I bookmark a couple of recipes to try. This cookbook had me bookmarking almost every page! This cookbook includes everything from appetizer to dessert. Needless to say, it was more than I was expecting from a BBQ cookbook and I highly recommend. Many thanks to the publisher for the advance reader in exchange for my honest review!

I don’t do the barbequing but I am the one who preps all food and hands it over to the person who will be Bar-B-Qing, so I needed some new ideas to bring to the party. I learned so much and was able to get some good rub recipes along with many other recipes that I never even thought of. In fact this is a book I will be birthday gift giving to a couple of people who love to eat and cook bar-b-qed foods.

I thought this was a pretty good book for a non native Texan to have written. I did appreciate the details about when brisket became a thing because in my mind as a lifelong Texan it's always been our thing, so I didn't know it was not even that long ago that it came to be. I, of course, enjoyed all of the brisket recipes and the many different things you can do with brisket, and I also enjoyed the author's story about their first taste of "bbq" and how when she tried Texan bbq she realized the first thing she had wasn't good bbq and that's why she didn't like it. I think many people I know would like this cookbook. I would recommend it to any of my friends that like to cook out.

I would have LOVE to read this book. Being from Texas, it had me wishing for it. My wish was granted, but alas I could not download the book in the format. So disappointed

It is well known that in many families, barbequeing is a predominantly male occupation, not least because the alpha male jealously guards his equipment and tools. So when I first started to look at therecipes in this book I thought it would be all ribs and steaks. It certainly didn't disappoint in that respect. But what was really surprising was the large selection and range of recipes including Peppered Beef Tenderloin with Jalepeno Bearnaise and a large selection of marinades and rubs. The surprising were the seasoning mixes like Jolt a mixture of cayenne, salt and coffee sure to brighten up your pork dish, Port Aransas Tuna Dip, Coctel De Camaron,, Smoke Scented Pecans, Venison Pate, Chowders and Honey Glazed Chorizo Stuffed Quail.
In the words of teh author "Sweet follows smoke the way amorous eyes follow tight jeanson guys or gals." So this book does not disappoint with its desserts including Butter Pecan Icer Cream and Peach Sorbet.

Move over men, these recipes are serious competition!

Since I've had the time to review this title, I've become the pitmaster at our house, with tasty results! 100 recipes to delight the taste buds and get you to Q!! It doesn't disappoint!

This was a great cookbook with lots of variety in terms of the recipes. There's plenty that I want to try and one of them is the Oysters with Chipotle butter.

This is a solid history of barbecue in Texas, as well as a collection of tips and recipes. From the DIYer to the deluxe grill buyer, Jamison outlines what everybody needs to get started in practicing the art of the Q. I liked that there were ideas for bringing in different flavors and inspirations, as well as using the meat in other recipes. There are even ideas for what to snack on while you wait for the meat to cook, and of course a few traditional Texas desserts!

Thanks to the publishers and NetGalley for a digital ARC for the purpose of an unbiased review.

A great BBQ cookbook, all recipes are set out well and easy to follow. Cant wait to try some more out!

More than just a BBQ book, it is a fully developed cookbook covering all courses and including dessert. The highlight is the section on beef, with traditional Texas brisket and a selection of dry rubs and sauces.

Almost everyone would agree that award-winning author, Cheryl Jamison, writes excellent cookbooks, and Texas Q: 100 Recipes for the Very Best Barbecue from the Lone Star State, All Smoke-Cooked to Perfection is certainly no exception. It is an excellent cookbook filled with all sorts of recipes that real people actually want to eat.

There is a chapter on setting up an outdoor kitchen, including equipment, and different grills and smokers that get good results. The chapter isn’t too long, but has the right information for those of us with a busy lifestyle who just want to get it done and go on with our cooking.

The recipes consist of Texas BBQ dishes, and while there are good BBQ dishes throughout the country, Jamison convinces us that the best are served in Texas. The recipes are well-written and easy-to-understand. They don’t call for exotic ingredients that are difficult to find; rather, most of us probably have the ingredients on our pantry shelves already. The book includes appetizers, meats, poultry, and fish dishes, as well as great side dishes and a few desserts. Although the recipes are Texan, according to Jamison, many have influences from all over the world. The delicious Chickpea and Chopped Vegetable Salad is reminiscent of the Middle East, and there is a Mexican Street Corn Salad with definite Mexican nuances. Also included are rubs and sauces that cooks can use to make the dishes their way.

The only downside to this cookbook is that it has a very limited amount of photographs. Most cooks want more, and want to see what the finished dish will look like. Oh well, we can’t have everything. This is a great cookbook with great recipes that turn out right. Highly recommended.

Special thanks to NetGalley for supplying a review copy of this book.
