 Great Info March 21, 2007
14 out of 15 found this review helpful
I'm not overly crazy about the lay out of the book, but the amount of info in here is worth the cost of the book alone.
Very few recipes call for processed pre-packaged foods (mostly just a few of the desserts).
Its a good starter book for both the info and the recipes.

A lot of good advise on taking care of cast iron and redoing old abused cast iron but was kinda dispointted with the recipes.

Good introduction to cast iron December 14, 2005
61 out of 61 found this review helpful
This is a very good introduction to cooking with cast iron. The first couple of chapters give you the basics of using cast iron (seasoning, how and what to buy, caring for and using, etc.). The second part of the book has all the recipes with chapters on meats, poultry, seafood, vegetables, breads/cornbreads, desserts, and non-traditional dishes. There is also a chapter on using an outdoor dutch oven and some recipes to go along with that.
Overall, the recipes are good but do use more bacon fat and butter than I would like. Every recipe is accompanied by its nutritional information so you can decide if you need to substitute some of the ingredients or not. The hushpuppies recipe has slightly more than 50% of its calories come from fat so let the cook beware.
Definitely buy this book if your are new to cast iron cooking. If you are a pro, I might hold off as the book will probably be too introductory.

Thanks for the great book on cast iron cooking. The book was in great shape, and I already bought one more piece of cookware, because of recommendations from the author.
