The Meat Club (girls only!) Cookbook, Cookbook of the Day

While it takes some time to adjust to the fact that this cookbook is full of fabric trimmings and other very girly touches, behind that veneer of cuteness is actually a very useful book. The Meat Club Cookbook: For Gals Who Love Their Meat is just what it sounds like: a book full of meat dishes. They don't have to be only eaten by women, of course, but are meant to make cooking meat seem less manly. It approaches its subject with humor, even adapting the (now ubiquitous) Fight Club rules to suit their purpose:

You have to be a girl.
You have to love to cook and eat meat.
You have to love to talk about meat (any kind).
What's said in the Meat Club stays in the Meat Club!

It may seem cheesy, but the heart of the book is not in dairy, but in the meat of the cow (or pig). The recipes range from basics like Slow Lovin' Beef Brisket to dishes like Wild Mood Moroccan Patty Cakes and most of them have a story of origin, usually having come from a friend, aunt or grandmother. This isn't the place to look for chicken and veggie dishes, but you'll find quite a few that use bacon grease.

Did I mention that they have a website? No boys allowed, of course.
