Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
Hip and handsome Tyler Florence has been wowing Food Network audiences for six years. With books like Eat This Book and Tyler Florence's Real Kitchen, he has also been establishing himself as a viable author in a crowded field. His aptly named new book collects 125 home versions of his favorite meals. The recipes include tantalizing dishes such as Grilled Striped Bass Basted in Grapefruit Butter; Chicken Paillard with Blue Cheese, Pancetta, and Figs; and the nearly sinful Cornish Hens with Fennel Sausage, Red Grapes and Soft Polenta. Ultimate indeed.
Publishers Weekly
Were this book not to share a name with Florence's Food Network show, its existence would be a puzzle. As it is, it's hard to make heads or tails of this jumble of decent but not spectacular recipes that share only one thing in common: a forced "guy talk" manner. Chapters are arranged by type of dish, with titles like "Surf" for fish, and each opens with a throw-away introduction of a couple of paragraphs: "noodles are a great way to put a smile on somebody's face." Recipes are equally casual: once you've started the sauce for Coconut Shrimp with Basmati Rice and Apricots, you're told to "jump to the rice," and in the headnote to Angry Lobster with Tomato-Chile Butter and Arugula, Florence reminisces about working "at a mafia joint in Tribeca" patronized by men "from Jersey with pinky rings... and girls decked out in big hair and gold." Despite this sometimes off-key tone, instructions are clear, and each recipe helpfully comes with an estimated cooking time, most of them quick. Still, one can't help wishing that despite offering truly helpful advice (such as the tip not to shake the pan when making Oven Fries for crispier results), Florence would, in his own parlance, tune down the 'tude, dude. (Nov.) Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
Library Journal
Tyler's Ultimate is also the name of Florence's current Food Network show, and this companion volume is likely to be as popular as his two previous cookbooks, Eat This Book and Tyler Florence's Real Kitchen. It is filled with zesty, full-flavored, mostly uncomplicated recipes, from Watermelon Gazpacho with Chile and Feta Cheese to Pan-Fried Lamb Chops with Harissa. Gorgeous full-color photographs illustrate many of the dishes. Florence has a friendly, unassuming style, and his enthusiasm is contagious. For most collections.

Tyler's Ultimate


Brilliant Simple Food to Make Any Time

Chapter One


THE ULTIMATE BARBECUED CHICKEN
Time: About 1 hour, plus brining

The simple process of brining takes barbecued chicken from pedestrian to
mouthwatering in as little as 15 minutes. And the sauce.... bring an extra stack
of napkins because you're going to be licking it off your elbows!

Serves 4 to 6

Brine:
2 quarts water
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 garlic cloves, smashed with the side of a large knife
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 chickens (3 1/2 to 4 pounds each), quartered

The Ultimate Barbecue Sauce:
1 slice bacon
1 bunch fresh thyme
Extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 onion
2 garlic cloves
2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
2 tablespoons red or white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Freshly ground black pepper

For the brine, combine the water, salt, sugar, garlic, and thyme in a 2-gallon
sized re-sealable plastic bag. Add the chicken, close the bag and refrigerate 2
hours (if you've only got 15 minutes, that's fine) to allow the salt and
seasonings to penetrate the chicken.

Meanwhile, make the sauce. Wrap the bacon around the bunch of thyme and tie with
kitchen twine so you have a nice bundle. Heat a2-count of oil in a large
saucepan over medium heat. Add your thyme and cook slowly 3 to 4 minutes to
render the bacon fat and give the sauce a nice smoky taste. Add the onion and
garlic and cook slowly without coloring for 5 minutes. Add all of the rest of
the ingredients, give the sauce a stir, and turn the heat down to low. Cook
slowly for 20 minutes to meld the flavors.

Preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal barbecue to a medium heat. Take a few paper
towels and fold them several times to make a thick square. Blot a small amount
of oil on the paper towel and carefully and quickly wipe the hot grates of the
grill to make a non-stick surface. Take the chicken out of the brine, pat it dry
on paper towels and cook, turning once, 15 minutes. Then brush the chicken with
the sauce and continue cooking until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 10 more
minutes. Serve with extra sauce.

    Love love love this book!

    How far can you pare down the culinary flash... how accessible can you make a cookbook... and still come out with extraordinary results? This book will show you. I adore it because it relies on strong flavor and texture elements, introduces unimagined combinations, and turns the recipes loose to work wonders in the result. It's a revelation of simplicity, if you'll allow it to be, and a lesson for both new cooks and kitchen veterans alike. Buy it now!

    Love this book!

    I bought three of Tyler's book to take to a book signing in Japan. I was keeping one (Real Kitchen) and giving the other two as gifts. I ended up buying this one for myself as well.

    Love all Tyler Florence Cookbooks

    I love his show on the Food network and many of the recipes are in the book or very similar. The recipes are easy, tasty, and fun to eat. Many of them are fast and easy, while the Sunday dinner style recipes that take more time are so worth it.

    Good choice

    I bought this as a gift for my husband, who is far less tied to recipes that I. He likes Tyler's style and recipes. The recipes are not difficult though do include ingredients that a novice cook may not be as likely to keep on hand. We've made several dishes and enjoyed them all!

    Another Great Cookbook From Tyler

    I have Tyler's other 2 cookbooks and all 3 are great. I think this one might be my fave because it has alot of recipes for veggies and has such a variety of recipes. There is a gorgeous photo that accompanies each one and a little paragraph talking about each recipe at the beginning. There are many old comfort foods like fried chicken, mac and cheese, BBQ chicken but they are all done with a Tyler twist that makes them extra special. I have made many of Tyler's recipes and they are always delicious. I highly recommend the book.

    Great for New Cooks

    I love this cook book not only because Tyler is quite a hottie, but because all the recipes are simple to make and easy to understand! The recipes have pictures so you know exactly what your meal ¿should¿ look like and all the ingredients are things that I normally have in my house. I would strongly recommend this book to any new cook or someone who just likes to make great meals.
