Fresh Fish
New Englanders will certainly enjoy Fresh Fish more than cooks elsewhere, nevertheless Jennifer Trainer Thompson created a superb cookbook on fish and seafood. This is more than a cookbook; it is filled with local history from the Pilgrims on, plenty of good food information on fish and other foods (cleaning and grilling fish, buying guide, cleaning clams, shucking oysters, sea salt and so on). The recipes are very good, laid out well with good instructions.

read moreThe Smoking Bacon & Hog Cookbook
Very few home cooks qualify to use The Smoking Bacon & Hog Cookbook but those who do, will find this book by Bill Gillespie excellent. First you must own at least one good smoker, preferably two: a non-insulated bullet-style and an insulated cabinet smoker. Gillespie uses both plus you also need a good charcoal grill. Gillespie starts with the basics, reviewing what you need and describing the two types of smokers—too bad he did not think of illustrating them.
