There is the obvious, but foolish association of cooking with fire and firefighters. The truth is simply that firefighting is a dangerous and stressful job, and during downtime at the station, what better or more relaxing way to spend it than cooking and eating? Joseph T. Bonanno has collected the favorite grilling recipes of firefighters around the country and compiled them in The Firehouse Grilling Cookbook. Bonanno is no stranger to firehouse cuisine or healthy food. An 18-year veteran of the New York City Fire Department and a certified sports nutritionist, he proved in his first book, The Healthy Firehouse Cookbook, that he likes to eat healthy and eat well. The Firehouse Grilling Cookbook continues the tradition. Bonanno insists that grilling is the preferred cooking method of firefighters everywhere, and shares more than 150 of their down-to-earth, no-nonsense grilling recipes, including many of his own. They range from the classic Slow-Cooked Ribs to the more exotic, including Grilled Cajun Tuna Steaks and other selections for grilled poultry and seafood. There is also a thorough guide to rubs and sauces, along with excellent sections on side dishes and appetizers. Bonanno’s concerns with healthy cooking are echoed throughout the book with sensible low-fat recipes that sacrifice nothing to flavor. And, to make sure you never need Bonanno’s professional services, a comprehensive guide to grilling safety for both gas and charcoal grills is included, as well as an extensive guide to equipment. The book is an outstanding guide for tasteful, exciting, and safe grilling. –Mark O. Howerton
