296187 Is there a cookbook out there based on cuts of meat? Wed Feb 18 13:16:56 -0800 2004 7 27 General Chowhounding Topics 0 1630668 I would like to see a cookbook where they talk about the cut of meat, a general discussion about how to cook it (braised, stewed, grilled, rosted, etc.), and a few receipes that highlight the cut and the cooking method. I'd especially like this for the less expensice cuts of meat. I don't know about you but I can't afford to eat only tenderloin, ribeye, and strip-- nor would I want to even if I could. Wed Feb 18 13:16:56 -0800 2004 0 Sant 1 1630669 The Complete Meat Cookbook, by Bruce Aidells and Denis Kelley is exactly that sort of cookbook. And the recipes are good as well. Wed Feb 18 13:19:13 -0800 2004 1630668 0 Shawn 2 1630731 I second the recommendation. This is exactly the book you are looking for! And the recipes are great too!! Wed Feb 18 16:33:54 -0800 2004 1630669 0 LizR 1 1630696 These folks have a $12.00 package that's well worth it. Several beef and pork charts and info on pamphlets on how to cook different cuts, what the different cooking methods are, etc...

I think it is a GREAT, but dated book. Unfortunately, it is also out of print. Copies are henerally available on the used market - try Half.com or Ebay for available copies. It will teach you more about meat than the average supermarket butcher knows.
