La barbacoa de Óscar Manresa y Toni García Ramón

La barbacoa, the definitive guide to becoming the king of the barbecue.

Everyone wants to be the barbecue master, but very few manage it. This, at last, is the definitive guide to getting there. Secret ingredients, essential know-how and tips for achieving the perfect result, from renowned chef Óscar Manresa.

Paired with Toni García's humour and accompanied by wonderful photography, the book offers a series of recipes that unravel the finer points of a science that goes well beyond a simple bed of embers. It covers everything from which meat to choose to how to reach exactly the right juiciness, the sauce to marinate it in, the perfect pairing, the combustion and the side dishes.
