Books on outdoor grilling abound, but few get the job done as concisely as Weber's Charcoal Grilling. Addressed, as most such books are, to the male cook, this collection of 115 attractive recipes, which range from rubs and sauces to desserts--and includes, besides the basics, the tasty likes of Filet Mignon Steaks with Martini Marinade; Dutch Oven Jambalaya; and Caribbean-Spiced Grouper with Yellow Pepper Sauce--necessarily concentrates on technique. A comprehensive, color-photo-illustrated section on fire-mastery helps guide readers through fundamentals and more advanced approaches like outdoor smoking. Included also are portraits of successful guy-grillers, which should provide further encouragement to the grilling-diffident. With good notes on shopping and grilling pitfalls--how to avoid fish sticking to the grill is one--this is an excellent, to-the-point guide. --Arthur Boehm
