I just went over to eBay to look for a cookbook I want. If you will enter “pre owned cook books” on the search bar it will show that there are 600,000+ there. I found what I wanted then decided to look around. Every one you’ve ever heard of is there and even more that you’ve never known existed. The prices run from around $9.00 to $4.00 with most having free shipping. Julia, Steven, Kenji, and Justin are all there plus thousands more. If you’re bored and inside because you would burst into flames if you went outside this is a fun way to kill some time.
Edit: I just went back and searched for BBQ cook books. There are over 14,000 of them!
Meathead is well represented there also.

Large Big Green Egg, Weber Performer Deluxe, Weber Smokey Joe Silver, Fireboard Drive, 3 DigiQs, lots of Thermapens, and too much other stuff to mention.
I got a couple of my old favorites there! The knowledge has been surpassed, as well as the equipment available to home cooks from when they were published, but Jane Butel’s Chili Madness and Finger Lickin’ Rib Stickin’ Great Tastin’ Barbecue, and Hotter Than Hell all have tremendous nostalgic value for me, as do Diet for a Small Planet and Recipes for a Small Planet.
I have been a sucker for books most of my life. Recently I have switched to digital versions for multiple reasons among chief among them are no need for storage space, you can easily take all of them with you, and they are easy to copy and paste into Paprika. I subscribe to Kindle unlimited, so there’s a ton of books I can borrow and return when I no longer need access.
