Lampe is called Dr. BBQ for a reason—he knows barbeque in and out, and here he offers over 200 recipes that will keep you grilling all year long. Of course, all the classics are here—porterhouse steaks, BBQ shrimp, red slaw, rack of pork—but the doctor dives deeper into the barbeque world with such delicious dishes as “Sherry Shrooms,” “Grilled Tuna and Garlic with Quick Piperade Sauce,” “Black Pepper Strawberries” and “Chocolate Whiskey Balls.” Naturally, he divides the recipes by season, but also includes specific seasonal holidays for grilling—and not just the usual suspects, like New Year’s Eve and Independence Day, but also Groundhog Day, Daytona 500 Day, March Madness and Summer Solstice. After all, we all need more excuses to grill. After covering each season, Lampe includes tips for stocking your drawers, patios and pantries.

The doctor is in, so fire up the grill and prepare for a year of hearty eating.
