This is a great book on how to barbecue and grill, I used to think they were synonymous but that was before I knew better. I have been using a Weber charcoal kettle and a gas grill for years and since I got this book Meathead's techniques have taken my grilling to a whole new level. If you want to impress your friends (and yourself) get this book and you will be rewarded with some great eats. In the past I have always relied on several other "reference" grilling books but they will now be on the sidelines.

Any cookbook can easily devolve into simply a recipe list. What Meathead provides us here is a basic education on the science of what various techniques does to our food. Think of it as kind of like an extended Cook's Illustrated series on bbq. Especially enjoyed the various 'Myth Busted!' sections throughout the book, very thought provoking!

I don't know about the "compelling" rating, but as others have said, if you could only have one cookbook about cooking meats, this would be my first choice. I gave several copies as gifts. I don't agree with everything and some of the scientific experiments differ from my direct experience, but overall, this is most of what you need to know about cooking different foods on a charcoal grill, gas grill, ceramic cooker, smoker or standard oven.
