Thanks to NetGalley and Workmam Publishing Company for the digital copy of this book. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

We got tired of our grills rusting out even with a winter cover for the outdoor appliance, so last year, we invested in an outdoor griddle.. It was bought at the end of the season, so we never got a chance to use it. That's why I was very much looking forward to this book about making the best use of an indoor or outdoor griddle.

However, I was pretty disappointed in the book. First, there are at least three additional items the author suggests using to get the best results. Almost every recipe uses a griddle dome or griddle press, with no suggestions of alternatives. Almost every recipe calls for says "preferably organic" for certain items; a simple note prior to all the recipes could have mentioned this instead of wasting ink on Every. Single. Recipe. Lastly, this book was clearly written for intermediate cooks; it definitely is not for beginners. While I consider myself an intermediate cook, I have zero experience with outdoor griddles and this book did nothing to make me feel confident in tackling the new apparatus in our backyard.

Some of the recipes are intriguing if you're an intermediate cook, so I'm glad that I got a chance to read this book. However, I would not recommend it to my readers and won't be blogging about it. I'll only be posting this review on Goodreads and The Storygraph.

I received a copy of this eBook from netGalley for a honest review.

I was disappointed in this cookbook. It seemed to be made for a more serious griddle chef then a home cook. There weren't enough pictures to get an idea of what was being made in the book. A better book for someone with an established griddle in their life.
