Which would you prefer??

[longshot]

I mostly I learn better by reading. I also am not all that great at following ver-batim(sp?) usually I use recipes as guidelines not necessarily carved in stone. With the exception of jelly, somehow if I don't follow step by step it don't set up.

Hey Boss, need an option for both!

What's the name of the book?

I like the book... i see some things on the tube... can never keep up with tryin to write the recipe... besides by the time i get to sit in front of the tv... it usually ends up watchin me more than i watch it....

i think this thread mark,.......as to book or dvd type of thing
i agree with your stating trying to write down as you watch......but i normally, if watching cooking shows........its food tv, and i know i can get the recipe off of their web site..........

The cookbook, because I don't follow it like building a model (step a, step b, etc.). I get basic info and alter the details to suit what I have.

I prefer the cookbook because I use recipes as a place to start.

"great sausage recipes and cures" comes with the book and DVD, just what I asked Mrs. Santa Claus for

my daughter got me a gift certificate to walden books and i went in and cruised the cookbooks and got 3 good bbq books one is just rubs sauces and marinades. one leans more to the grill but a lot of stuff can easily be adapted to smoking

Can't beat a good cookbook!! I'm a visual sort and like step by step photo's along with a good recipe.

I'm with Fritz on this one.

Interesting question. I think early on I would have liked a video. At this point a cookbook is my preference. I LOVE cookbooks.

Way back when I started cooking this internet thing didn't exist so getting and swapping informaiton wasn't as easy as it is now.
