Diggin' in and piggin' out
Diggin' in and piggin' out: the truth about food and men
Roger Welsch
Publisher: New York : HarperCollins, c1997.
ISBN: 0060187174   DDC: 641.0207   LCC: TX652  

Summary:

"Roger reveals man's own unique brand of cuisine - from how to
properly prepare gin and tonic barbecued ribs (hint: drink while you
cook) to man's ideal restaurant (a place where you can eat canned
food over a sink). He also identifies the two secrets of preparing
manly food - meal and fire. Most of his meals are not prepared in a
traditional kitchen (no longer man's home) but outdoors, in huge fire
pits, car-size barbecue grills, and custom-built smoke-houses. These
revelations are just the beginning of this richly funny tour of food,
the men who eat it, and the women who join them." "Peppered
throughout the book are Roger's favorite recipes, which will leave
you spent and satiated: Uncle Roger's Nutritional Bombshells, Mick's
Blind Duck, Linda's Man-Magnet Mashed Potatoes, Boom John Carter's
Huevos Rancheros (Acts One and Two), Red Beer, and Wild Fruit Wines.
You can make the stuff yourself, or if you're clever enough, find
someone who'll make it for you."--BOOK JACKET.
