Smoke may be the most manly food flavoring agent out there. Cayenne comes close as does bacon fat, but nothing reeks of the primordial man as much as a hit of smoke. The new book Smoke: New Firewood Cooking is aimed at helping you introduce a bit of smokiness in more ways than you thought possible. From smoking on your stovetop with woodchips to spit roasting at home, Smoke: New Firewood Cooking will turn you into pro at the most basic form of cooking. Basically it’s the cookbook a caveman would have used after he dragged home a woolly beast.
