Good Eats: The Early Years by Alton Brown

Alton Brown is a foodie phenomenon: a great cook, a very funny guy, and—underneath it all—a science geek whos as interested in the chemistry of cooking as he is in eating. (Well, almost.) Here, finally, are the books that Browns legion of fans have been salivating for—two volumes that together will provide an unexpurgated record of his long-running, award-winning Food Network TV series, Good Eats.

From Pork Fiction (on baby back ribs), to Citizen Cane (on caramel sauce), to Oat Cuisine (on oatmeal), every hilarious episode is represented. Each book—the second will be published in fall 2010—is illustrated with behind-the-scenes photos taken on the Good Eats set. Each contains more than 140 recipes and more than 1,000 photographs and illustrations, along with explanations of techniques, lots of food-science information (of course!), and more food puns, food jokes, and food trivia than you can shake a wooden spoon at.

the prop he does not remember- it was something "L. Pasteur" carried around in one Episode(I do not remember which one), right?

oh, by the way, question to all owners of the book:

Does it include ALL(!) recipes from the first 80 Episodes? Seeme to thin, if one considers the average sheetthickness of most hardcover-books =/

I love this book! Informative, witty, great recipes, and quirky aesthetics. It's just like the show, only in written form. Can't wait for the Middle Years to come out!

Just picked up this book in Chicago - it is incredible, very unique. But what else does one expect from AB?!?!? I met him at a book signing when I bought the book - his is very down to earth too.....
