Editorial Reviews: Alton Brown has smoked a salmon in a cardboard box, roasted a prime rib in a terracotta flower pot, cooked onion soup in an electric skillet, used a C-clamp as a nutcracker, and a binder clip to hold a probe thermometer in place. While his machinations may border on the Rube Goldberg-esque, it is among Brown's missions to present the best - and often the simplest - tool to get the job done. Following an introduction that discusses a little bit of kitchen history and some advice on room layout and organization, the book is divided into 9 chapters: Big Things with Plugs, Pots and Pans, Sharp Things, The Tool Box, Small Things with Plugs, Storage and Containment, It Came From the Hardware Store, Surfaces, and Safety and Sanitation.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: A book to live by Comment: The wife and I used this book when we registered for our wedding. It was perfect in helping us decide what was really necessary and what was junk that would clutter out kitchen. I highly recommend this book for learning about different types of cooking tools. Customer Rating: Summary: Explains lots Comment: I got this for the Hubby and he loves it. It has a lot of info on items to make things easier. I'm all for Alton Brown and getting the Hubby in the kitchen. Customer Rating: Summary: Good reference Comment: Being a fan of Mr. Brown's "Good Eats" I was kind of hoping this book would read more like a story. It will be kept in the kitchen as a reference for any future purchases but it is not the type of book you read from cover to cover. Customer Rating: Summary: Comprehensive, thoughful book. Comment: Outstanding book. A must for cooking enthusiasts. Beware of spending a lot of money on buying stuff though. Customer Rating: Summary: Easy Reading With Excellent Information!! Comment: This is a must have for any Alton Brown fan!! The book is full of great information on kitchen must haves and items to pass up. Highly recommended! More Reviews
