gboss mentioned this one that he bought in another thread, and I was intrigued. This is a fantastic book.
It clearly breaks down veal, lamb, chicken, pork, and beef with beautiful pictures. I had all my questions about different grades of chicken, pork, beef, veal, and lamb addressed, and he explained all of the different cuts clearly. I now have nice visuals for understanding where the different cuts come from and how contributes to taste and flavor. He clearly explained the differences between grass-fed and grain-fed beef and explained how grain-fed is better for the environment (shorter time to market so less resources consumed). And, there's some new recipes I want to try with outside skirt steak (both the 5-minute skirt steak and the pinwheel skirt steak). I now have a sweet comparison pic for dry-aged steaks to consider.
I also have some new burger blends to think about: equal parts clod/chuck/brisket/short rib, or 2/3rds short rib/brisket, or 2/3rds hanger/1/3 clod.
A really educational book with a high level of "oh that is cool" per page. Thanks gboss
