I love that everything is organized by meal types i
This book is everything a cookbook should be AND MORE! I can't tell you how disappointing it is to find a cookbook with recipes only, a cookbook is not just about the ingredients and recipes but also the visuals. The photos in this book are absolutely glorious and mouthwatering. You will want to try EVERY. SINGLE. THING. Trust me. I love that everything is organized by meal types i.e. breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, desserts, sidedishes etc. etc! It makes it so easy to know where to look when trying to find our next meeal. The best part about this cookbook is the size! It's so small and compact. I often feel so overwhelmed by cookbooks I don't actually buy or use them, or they get tossed and lost somewhere with otehr books. This book is so small and compact it makes it SO easy to actually have the opportunity to try all the recipes. We are slowly but surely committed to trying every recipe in here. Our latest try was the Turkey and Melted Brie Sandhiwhhc with green chiles - oh man, if your mouth isn't watering yet, it should be! This was so freaking good!! Simple and oh so delicious. I love the glossiness of the pages too, it just makes the photos pop. as a visual person, I really need the visuals before I try a recipe. Highly recommend this!

Outdoor cooking at its Best!
Cooking outside just went to a whole new level by using a full griddle grill. This book presents everything needed to make anyone switch to a new griddle grill. With all my neighbors grilling constantly, I was convinced I was the only person who was spending all my time wrapping fish or vegetables in foil because they were falling into the grill. Now I realize the full griddle grill is my perfect answer. Not only are all my vegetables grilling perfectly – I can cook most anything outside. After reading the Awesome Backyard Griddle Cookbook, I opted for the smaller grill and I love it! This is much more than a cookbook. Over forty recipes take you from breakfast pancakes or omelets, to lunch burgers or Cuban sandwiches, dinner can be scallops and asparagus or chicken parmesan (things I never could have managed on a regular grill). I am now wielding a water spray bottle and spatula and enjoying cooking outside!

This is one of the best cookbooks that I have found in a long time
This is one of the best cookbooks that I have found in a long time. Recipes are extra good. It is summer and what better way to prepare a meal outside than on a griddle. I know this book is for griddles but could be adapted for any cooking outside. Recipes are for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, desserts and sauces. There are about 45 recipes in total. An introduction has the history of the griddle, how to use the griddle, types of griddle grills, tools and equipment needed, maintance, and preparing to cook. All are very well explained and easy to follow. Ingredients are common and ones already in most homes. If you do not have them, they are in every supermarket. Illustrations are good and show what the recipe with look like. This book would be a perfect book for anyone. Even one who does not enjoy cooking. That is how easy the recipes are.

I really enjoyed this cookbook for a few reasons
I really enjoyed this cookbook for a few reasons. For me, the fact that it had detailed but easy-to-read step by step instructions for the care of the griddle grill was essential. I didn't know this first thing about this new appliance, and knowing how to clean it properly and both what seasoning it meant and how to do it, made all the difference. The other thing I really like about this cookbook is that isn't not just meats. Sure, there are great recipes for burgers and bacon, but there are ALSO fabulous recipes for making french toast or pancakes on the griddle grill. I like that this book helps me use my griddle grill a lot, which makes it an efficient and worthwhile cooking appliance for me to own. Definitely a go-to for anyone buying a griddle grill for the first time, or someone looking to expand their repertoire.

Insanely creative and very well laid-out
This book has been SO much fun already in our backyard this summer! I have never tried using a flat-top for anything except meat and meat substitutes. This book opened a whole new world. We've been having the neighbors over for dinner and grilling all kinds of things-- breakfast foods, bahn mi, chicken parmesan... next on our list is a Japanese specialty called okonomiyaki that I had once in a restaurant but had never dreamed of cooking. Best of all, the recipes are SIMPLE. I'm so tired of cookbooks that require 10-12 ingredients per dish. It's impossible to keep a fridge stocked affordably that can handle that kind of variety. Give this book a shot if you're a flat-top owner: you won't regret it!

There's a super helpful section on the accessories you're going to need ...
Cooking on a grill or griddle has always seemed slightly terrifying to me, despite the fact that it's not all that different from cooking on a stove. This book is changing that. Not only does Sidoriak include some snippets about the fascinating history of griddles, he also leads you through the proper use of a griddle. There's a super helpful section on the accessories you're going to need (and where to find them!), and the recipes here are deeee-licious! I found these recipes to be easy to follow and the pictures that accompany them are amazing. It's a beautifully organized cookbook, one that any beginning griller needs in their arsenal.

Creative dishes
I haven’t actually made any of these yet (still waiting for my Blackstone delivery,) but have scanned over most of the recipes. There are great suggestions for the beginner on seasoning your griddle as well as what accessories are helpful. Some very creative ideas are presented in a variety of of different food groups. I was hoping to find more stir fry type recipes. I do find it more helpful than than the Quick Start Blackstone book which is primarily meat only dishes.

Not worth the $24.00 CAD - worth the $14.00 on the US site
Recipes are OK, I must admit this review has more to do with my expectations than the book, the recipe we tried works fine and is OK, and that is probably the bet way of describing this book, it is OK.
