Book Description
The secret's in the sauce! Every backyard chef yearns to be known for that special brew that earns him or her a reputation as a barbecue pro. Paul Kirk's Championship Barbecue Sauces gives the outdoor cook a tasty head start. At its heart are over 50 sauces, from Granddad's Hotshot Sauce, Sweet Kansas City Sauce, and The Rib Doctor's Sauce to Smoky Peach Sauce and Berry Berry Sauce. Dozens of marinades get any food ready for the fire, and a bounty of rubs and mops will turn the most casual griller into a certified pitmaster. For extra pleasures once the food is served, there are zesty salsas and relishes, and even homemade mustards and ketchups. Each recipe points to the meats, fish, or vegetables it complements best. And, in several sections called ''Master Classes,'' readers learn how to concoct their own signature rubs and sauces out of the basic components: sugars, salts, acids, and spices.

Book Description
The master chef and seven-time barbecue champion shares 175 delicious, winning sauce recipes, plus grilling hints. It’s easy for any backyard chef to serve up tantalizing food from the grill! Paul Kirk offers 175 winning recipes that impart bold, zesty flavor to every cut of meat. Kirk covers the classic American sauces—with tomatoes, mustard, sugar, or vinegar at their base—and offers up a wealth of fresh and creative brews flavored with such things as raspberries, pineapple, ginger, chile peppers, and more. In special Master Classes and elsewhere, Kirk reveals the basic building blocks of spice mixtures, rubs, marinades, bastes, and sauces. He explains how to layer them during the cooking process, so that grilled or barbecued food not only smacks of flavor, but brisket is more tender, steaks form a crispy crust, and ribs melt in the mouth. Praise for Paul Kirk’s Championship Barbecue Sauces “For great barbecue, all you need is this book and a match. An indispensable book, full of big, bold, audacious flavors, bound to take the weekend barbecue to the master level. Absolutely the best book I have ever read.” —Mark Miller, author of Coyote Café and The Great Salsa Book “Good grilled food begins with a good dry or wet rub and a marinade, and a finished dish is best complemented by a tasty sauce or salsa. Paul Kirk’s techniques and recipes are must-reading for the wannabe and master barbecue chef.” —George Hirsch, author of Grilling with Chef George Kirsch and Adventures in Grilling “No man knows more about barbecue than the Baron, Paul Kirk. His book is a must for all barbecue buffs. The secret’s in the sauce—and Paul knows the secrets!” —Merle Ellis, author of The Great American Meat Book

Superforecasting

Pages : 331
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE ECONOMIST “The most important book on decision making since Daniel Kahneman's Thinking, Fast and Slow.”—Jason Zweig, The Wall Street Journal Everyone would benefit from seeing further into the future, whether buying stocks, crafting policy, launching a new product, or simply planning the week’s meals. Unfortunately, people tend to be terrible forecasters. As Wharton professor Philip Tetlock showed in a landmark 2005 study, even experts’ predictions are only slightly better than chance. However, an important and underreported conclusion of that study was that some experts do have real foresight, and Tetlock has spent the past decade trying to figure out why. What makes some people so good? And can this talent be taught? In Superforecasting, Tetlock and coauthor Dan Gardner offer a masterwork on prediction, drawing on decades of research and the results of a massive, government-funded forecasting tournament. The Good Judgment Project involves tens of thousands of ordinary people—including a Brooklyn filmmaker, a retired pipe installer, and a former ballroom dancer—who set out to forecast global events. Some of the volunteers have turned out to be astonishingly good. They’ve beaten other benchmarks, competitors, and prediction markets. They’ve even beaten the collective judgment of intelligence analysts with access to classified information. They are "superforecasters." In this groundbreaking and accessible book, Tetlock and Gardner show us how we can learn from this elite group. Weaving together stories of forecasting successes (the raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound) and failures (the Bay of Pigs) and interviews with a range of high-level decision makers, from David Petraeus to Robert Rubin, they show that good forecasting doesn’t require powerful computers or arcane methods. It involves gathering evidence from a variety of sources, thinking probabilistically, working in teams, keeping score, and being willing to admit error and change course. Superforecasting offers the first demonstrably effective way to improve our ability to predict the future—whether in business, finance, politics, international affairs, or daily life—and is destined to become a modern classic.

Cookies & Beer

Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Forty cookie recipes from chefs, breweries, and bakeries across the U.S. and suggested beer pairings for each. Whether you’re a baker or a drinker with a baking problem, these pages will provide a series of guideposts for how to put together forty rockin’ cookies—collected from celebrated chefs, bakers, and bakeries across the country—with craft beer. The information provides the building blocks for then experimenting with your own cookie and beer combinations. Each cookie, like Steven Satterfield's Chocolate-Almond, Coconut Macaroons, gets its own specific beer (Avery's Brewery Company’s The Reverend) as well as a general style pairing (a quadrupel). Along the way, Cookies & Beer will teach you how to make your own beer syrup for beer milkshakes, make it a night of Girl Scout cookies and beer, and even how to acquire and bake with spent grain (the by-product of beer brewing). And in the end, when you're ready for it, eight cookie recipes actually made with beer and devised by some of the vanguard craft breweries in the United States, are waiting to be baked. This is Cookies & Beer. And you, are about to be popular. Praise for Cookies & Beer “Jonathan Bender brings together two of my favorite subjects—cookies and beer—by weaving together thoughtful and witty stories and anecdotes with honest-to-goodness great recipes from some of the best bakers in the country.

From Mexican Hot Chocolate Cookies complimented by smoked porter to beer syrup milkshakes, this book is a delicious celebration of Bender’s love for all things baked and brewed.” —Agatha Kulaga, co-author of Ovenly: Sweet and Salty Recipes from New York's Most Creative Bakery
