From Publishers Weekly
This slim cookbook is a testament to the gritty charm of barbecue legend Christopher "Stubb" Stubblefield, who opened a 'cue joint in Lubbock, Tex. in 1968. After a few years enjoying Stubb's restaurant, the chef's pals convinced him to bottle his barbecue sauce, and the recipes in this volume make ample use of Stubb's bottled brews, from the soulful Slow Cooked Rosemary-Garlic Pot Roast to the finger-licking Wicked Chimichurri Wings. Graciously, satisfying allowances are suggested for people who don't have Stubb's sauce on hand. Other dishes, like Capers'n'Creole Deviled Eggs or Grilled Cornmeal Trout Fillets, don't require any Stubb's products, but are just as toothsome and appealing as those that do. None of these recipes are for the health-conscious; in keeping with Texas tradition, even the vegetables are doused with cheese, pork, or cream. But who could resist a bowlful of smoky, salty Black Eyed Peas'n'Bacon or a square of Cheddar Corn Bread, which packs a little corn sweetness and a serious jalapeno punch? From appetizers to entrees to sides and salads, almost every tasty-looking recipe begs to be tried; overindulgers can repent, however, by skipping the lackluster desserts, which include a Pecan Pie so sweet it makes even a devout pie-lover's teeth ache.

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I really wanted to give the book 4 and a half stars but it was not possible. This book could have been in the same class as Peace Love and BBQ, but it just isn't. The book starts out with some good stories about C.B. Stubb but could have gone more in-depth. I know the author has more detail because some of which is in her review is not in the book. It was like the publisher said you have x pages now fill them. Problem was the author had 250 pages should could have put together. We are left with what was chopped down to. The recipes themselves are really really good. I cannot wait to make some of the items. There is one drawback to the recipes. A few of them say 'use your favorite sweet sauce.' That is a real big pet peeve of mine. If i want to doctor up my favorite sweet sauce I either have done it already or I don't have an interest in doing so. Let me experience what you are tasting. This is one of the few BBQ books you could make a whole meal from. There is enticing appetizers, mouth watering entrees, side dishes that could be an entree and desserts. What else is there?
