Publisher's Synopsis
For many years, Bart Boos promised his children and other jackals that he'd write down his beloved family recipes... and in a fit of pique, the old hoser finally did it. "If It's Smoking, It's Done" compiles new recipes and favourites from "Bart's Snowy Palms Resort" blog with practical advice for new and intermediate chefs. Some are family recipes handed down through generations, others are brand-new from Bart's mind, some have been culled from random places (credited where possible), and others have origins long forgotten. This collection features a trove of (mostly) true tales -- recollections and rambles at varying levels of relevance and reverence, featuring a colourful cast of characters and a family that puts the 'fun' in 'dysfunctional.' You know, the parts you usually skip when you're reading recipe blogs. But you won't skip these ones!! Welcome to an informative, hilarious wander through Bart's culinary world, whether you're part of the Boos family, or just want to feel like you are...
