Each meal starts with an idea, and sometimes the easiest way to get things started is a book full of recipes. Mom can follow them to a T, or use them as inspiration. With the right one, however, it's more than just a little inspiration. A good book will fill in the blanks. It's cool to have a recipe, but it's better to know why a certain weight is needed, or cut of meat is preferred.
Most indoor grilling books focus on the George Forman side of things, and barbecue books don't really fit, so the best choice here is a book that champions the meat rather than the process, like the Complete Meat Cookbook. It's affordable; it has over 600 pages; and it is more than just recipes. This one, in particular, gives the ins and outs of meat cuts and temperatures, and the recipes offer room for movement -- variations to get the perfect taste for meaty night.
