” If you have ever cooked a steak medium-well instead of medium-rare, a chicken that ends up dry & tasteless, a stew that`s tough or stringy or a rack of ribs that falls a little too much off the bone then this is the book that will make your life that little bit better. This book is about `slow cooking`. Not meaning that slow cooker you got as a wedding gift that you never use & takes up valuable kitchen space or some big outdoor smoker that most people just don`t have, but cooking using anything from frying pans, ovens, pots, grills & affordable outdoor barbecues. It`s also not just about tough cuts of meat but also steaks, roasts, burgers & barbecue joints as well as lots of other things you might never have dreamed of slow-cooking at low temperatures! This is a step-by-step guide to cooking low & slow & why it benefits almost everything you cook & not just big hairy barbecue chefs like me.” (Neil Rankin). ...
