Product description

Review

For true burger obsessives, there is no other cookbook.

--Paula Forbes, Epicurious.com

"What a way to travel through America! George Motz takes us one burger at a time. I'll be locked on the Green Chile Cheeseburger page for my lesson from New Mexico."--Bobby Flay

"In the land of the hamburger, George Motz is king, an enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and passionate king who brings us not only the meat but heart and soul."--Rick Kogan, Chicago Tribune

"This book does everything a great cookbook should: it tells the story of a food, places it regionally, and provides techniques, recipes, and photography to help you re-create in your kitchen what the author has created in your imagination. Motz travels the country to discover an astonishing variety of burgers (poached?! who'd have thought?) and gives us a proud tribute to one of the most lovingly embraced foods in America."--Michael Ruhlman, best-selling author of Soul of a Chef and Ruhlman's Twenty: A Culinary Manifesto

Amazing variety of creative recipes

18 March 2017 - Published on Amazon.com

Always more you can learn about burgers. This book has a ton of recipes from all over the burger types, like poached, that you never even heard of. It's more about different recipes than about basics of meat selection, grinding, seasoning, grilling styles, etc. but it just depends what you want. If you want a lot of creative great recipes then great. But if you want to dig deeply into the basic art of preparing and cooking a burger there are some other books that focus more on that, although this does cover some of it.

As a burger guy, this was a must

The recipes are fantastic for every burger imaginable. The author takes burgers to another level. What really got me was when my vegetarian wife found a recipe for a veggie burger that is absolutely delicious. He had run across it at a burger joint he was in and had to include it so both of us are happy to have bought this book.

Love This Cookbook!

Just received this yesterday and I love it. I saw a review about it on tv and decided to buy it. Went to my local bookstore and it was 24.95. Came home and immediately ordered it from Amazon for 14.99. Great recipes. Plan to try one a week until I work my way thru the book. We love burgers and the idea of using a cast iron skillet never crossed my mind. Highly recommend.

This book is a blue collar history/ cultural essay and recipe book for all things American burger. It’s a easy read. It’s easy to index your favorite parts. it is like peering into another culinary dimension. Thank you, Mr. Motz!
