We rounded up some of the best grilling and BBQ cookbooks around to ensure your summer meals are smoking.
Compiling a summer reading list is always a chore—too many options, not enough time to get through them all. Prime beach reading courtesy of Howard Stern? One of the classics that’s been collecting dust on your shelf? Or perhaps the “Game of Thrones” anthology to help fill the void now that the television adaption has (almost) been laid to rest? They’re all worthy options. But instead of “A Song of Ice and Fire” why not consider a cookbook of fire and smoke? Whether you’re the proud owner of a Viking Ultra, keep a portable Weber in the back of your pickup, or enjoy the rustic simplicity of setting fire to a pile of logs, these essential grilling guides will help you make the most of your outdoor cooking plans this season.
