Big Book of Barbecue Sides

While sizzling slabs of ribs hog the spotlight, the real star of a good barbecue is often a fantastic side dish. In The Big Book of Barbecue Sides, grill master and BBQ aficionado Rick Browne presents an inspiring collection of accompaniments made both on and off the grill. The first cookbook dedicated to sides that complement grilled foods, it features more than 125 recipes– both classic and contemporary–for a mouth-watering array of salads, breads, pastas, vegetables, rice, beans, salsas, potatoes, and fruits. From Watermelon and Goat Cheese Salad and Fijian Barbecued Pineapple to Country Fried Corn and Classic Cole Slaw, these delightful sides liven up any barbecue, be it a simple family meal featuring burgers and dogs or an elegant outdoor soiree centered around the finest Japanese beef.
