Perfect for you if...

You want to move beyond basic burgers and steaks with recipes from Jamaica, Thailand, Brazil, and beyond that actually work on your home grill.
You're serious enough about barbecue to learn proper technique but don't need to quit your job to master live-fire cooking.
You like cookbooks that combine food science with practical how-to guidance, not just ingredient lists.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer quick weeknight dinners and aren't willing to plan ahead for marinades, rubs, and proper charcoal preparation.
You're looking for a slim, pretty coffee table book rather than a comprehensive reference guide you'll actually use in the kitchen.
You're vegetarian or mostly plant-based, as this is heavily meat-focused.
